    Wow, this is an excellent service, been with bt, talktalk, Ee, sky but this is by far the best, as a customer I took the fast broadband, I get 45 mb as was said and WiFi connects at 42 mb all around the house, Vodafone have finally got something right

    I have been with vodafone for nearly a year and cannot wait for my contract to finish! The initial changeover went like a dream but unless you only want ethernet and perhaps a couple of wifi devices, I would strongly advise looking elsewhere. I suddenly started to get problems with wifi devices suddenly disconnecting. All I get from the customer services is that my contract is for the broadband only and wifi is a 'curtesy' service! They suggest that I only ever have a maximum of 5 devices on at once and switch off the wifi on TV's mobiles etc when not being specifically used! I should also use the app to make sure that I havent forgotten to switch anything off! We had more of the family at home when I was with sky and must have had about 15 devices connected at times, with no problems at all. The router also just cuts out on occasions and needs rebooting. Vodafone won't let you use another router. In future I will happily pay a bit more for a decent service

    I signed up in January online to the 76mb package, it was supposed to get actived on the 24th of January which then got pushed to the 4th of Feb, no biggy, then the router turned out to be faulty so I had to wait for a replacement and sent the other back, then when i finally got it plugged in turns out I'm on the 38mb package so I rang up to be told tomorow it'll change over, ring up tomorow and they say the operations team will ring you within 10 days. 10 days pass, no call, no email. A day later I get a text saying it'll upgrade within 24hours, it didn't. I keep ringing everyday to get told tomorow everytime and also thirty pound credit one time to compensate apparently. We're now 6 days past then and no upgrade, I called today to be told tomorow again, she also offered me thirty pound credit again to which I replied I'd already been offered that to which she replied that I haven't got that basically and she can't see any evidence of that ever being offer to me on the system. Seems abit of a joke to me, the customer service are friendly but nothing is gets done.

    Wish there was a minus star ....where do I start . Ok went from Sky to Vodaphone on the 31st January promise fibre for a lower price just plug in and switch on .....17 days later it worked although not working to great.The technical team and customer services promised to phone you back only once this occurred in the 17 days without service ,they kept blaming BTopen reach when the engineer came from BT this type of fault is normally rectified within 48 hours really evident that vodaphone didn't raise a ticket - my advice stick with a trusted brand ...I wrote to the director to fix my issues

    I have had this opportunity to speak to this gentleman who is currently in South Africa (Cape Town), his name is Anthony Ford, this guy has been an absolute life saver to assist me with few problems that I have had recently, since the problem was not looking to get resolved within a day, he actually called me back the following day as he promised to resolve my query, I strongly recommend every network to actually consider taking someone as Anthony to be hired in their team in order to have satisfied customers!

    By far the best FTTC provider that I have used. Vodafone is my third provider. I have been with them since July 2015 and I don't intend to move away from them given that I have served my minimum contract period.

    Customer Service is first class. What problems (2 of them) I have experienced have been resolved very quickly with follow-up calls from CSR to ensure all is well. As a Vodafone Mobile customer, when my line was down caused by third party cable damage in my area, they added extra data to my mobile allowing me to remain online whilst my line was repaired.

    The router is superb along with the app allowing you to control and prioritise your broadband to devices.

    Above all, an excellent package, well priced with great service. I have recommended to family and friends some have switched and experienced the same service as me. I will continue to recommend as I have always found Vodafone to be one of the better companies to deal with.

    Came home from work to discover Vodafone Broadband is not working. I will try to keep it short, below outlines the appalling service:

    Weds 1st - i called to report a fault and spoke to Rob he tried to resolve the issue, had me unscrewing wall boxes etc for over 2 hours. He could not resolve the issue so advised he would have to escalate the problem to the Tech dept which could take 48hrs.

    Fri 3rd - having heard nothing and Broadband still not working I called & spoke to a woman who advised me that she had just been advised the system was down and had been for 2 hours and could be down for the rest of the day! I asked, how long she had been at work, she confirmed most of the eve, so i explained that surely she would have known the system was down unless she had been skiving for the last two hours and as a result i believed she was lieing to me, she didnt know what to say! She advised me that she could not help. I requested a Manager call me, she told me Managers do not talk to customers before having 24 hrs to investigate any issues! I asked if the Tech dept were open over the weekend, she confirmed the Tech dept were open until 9pm on weekends. She also advised me (even though the system was apparently down) That Rob, who i had initially spoke to on Weds 1st had failed to raise the fault request correctly and so a new request had to be raised.

    Sat 4th spoke to a guy at approx 6:20pm in the hope of talking to the Tech dept but he advised that the Tech dept closed at 6pm and there was nothing he cld do, i explained i was told on Fri that the Tech Dept worked until 9pm and i was not happy, he suggested i cld change suppliers!

    He then advised that my fault report had been 'picked up' and the update was that my line was showing that i was connected to a BT Hub and so possibly had a crossed line! He assured me he would get someone to call me on Sun.

    Sun 5th spoke a woman who told me my fault report had been worked on by an Engineer but she cld not up date me! The Tech Dept were still open but the Engineer dealing with it was not available! She agreed to get a Manager to call me by close of business to update me. She advised me not to work from home on Mon and if i had not heard anything by 9pm on Mon i shld not plan to work from home on Tues either!

    Mon 6th called Customer Relations - after apologising for the terrible service and assuring me she would get my issues resolved I was transferred to a Tech Manager who was useless, he repeated what i had been told on Sat, apparently my wifi was connected to a BT Hub so there was possibly a crossed line, however, the Engineer dealing with my fault was unavailable and so there was nothing that cld be done until 7th Tues. I asked to be put back through to Customer Relations as i felt i had achieved nothing! He didnt have the ability to do so, so gave me the Tel No. for Mobile phone complaints!

    I called Customer Relations using the Tel No i had used previously to find they were closed!

    7th Tues I called Customer Relations, after many apologies, they put me through to a chap in a Dept (not sure which one). He started off telling me that I had not received a call back from anyone because it takes 24hrs to update a Tel No and i had apparently updated my Tel No on the 5th, i told him that was rubbish as Rob had called me on weds 1st on both my landline & mob, just another excuse for lack of comms! He then spoke to the Tech Dept and apparently, Amy told him that there had been a number of outages (not in my area) that had caused a back log, my ticket had been picked up but not actioned. After a rant from me, he went back to Tech Dept.
    then asked me what hub i had I confirmed I had a Vodafone Hub.
    I was then passed on to Alex Lead Advisor in leeds on Karls Team he advised that a Tech person would call me today and that he would call me back at 4pm to confirm i had received a call.

    7th Tues - 11:10 am - William 2nd Line, Tech Team Manager in Scotland called to explain that apparently, a BT Engineer had worked on our local box on Thurs 2nd Feb to set up a new BT line in the area and had disconnected my line! I explained my I had reported my fault on Weds 1st so how could that be, i was advised their work logs only go back so many days so work by a BT Engineer could have been carried out on the 1st!!!! Ultimately, an engineer will need to visit my property to trace the line!

    An appointment is booked for Thurs 9th!

    This has been an absolute nightmare, I have spent hours on the phone and every call bar 1 has been instigated by me! I have missed 3 days work from not being ablevto work from home, I have been lied to, promised call backs and still failed to speak to a Manager and apparently, it is BT's fault! My advice is to Stick with paying line rental and stay with a company that has a better Customer Service record because Vodafones is truly appalling!

    Vodafone router is not compatible with Sonos, clearly they don't mention this in a sales pitch. After 2 days of trying to connect my Sonos I found a long forum stating it's a know problem with the Vodafone hardware and still no fix after a year. Vodafone customer service were fully aware and advised me to leave while in my cooling off period as could be a very long time before resolved.
    Wi-fi connection also unstable. They only state they are a wired broadband service and don't support wi-fi. Certainly not up to date with technology.

    Dont be tempted by price they offer... For the price you get a substandard router which will cut out as soon as more than 5 or 6 devices are connected. Vodafone have confirmed that the router can only handle 7 devices at once and i should switch my devices off when not using them. They also will not give you the passwords required to connect your own better quality router to improve the situation.
    When i can get connected the speeds have been as advertised just dont look at your mobile phone whilst streaming a movie or you lose your internet conmection for 10 minutes while the router resets itself.
    Very poor product
