    Useless customer service as has been form any years now. had 40 pounds fraudulently taken from my paypal on monthly topups to a number that didnt belong to me over 4 months on their voxi service. i was also using their voxi service and had my topup coming out of the paypal automtically, but i noticed a second one coming out also. the number i was told was registered in my name so must be a inside/employee doing. vodafone fraud accepted it was fraud but couldnt refund me. told me to talk to voxi (online chat only). they were useless and told me they couldnot do anything unless i pass security on the account that didnt belong to me...?! they referred me to vodafone pay as you go who referred my back to fraud, and the crap circle carries on, again something they have been doing for years (i worked for vodafone for 5-6 years in retail and will tell you first hand its a useless customer service system. (I spent most of my days working thier, arguing with their customer service channels and head office to get right done by the customers as our sales systems instore didnt have access and authority to do everything) and even for a internal employee it was a nightmare to get things sorted out. they implemented a new system a few years back that left customer details and accounts in dissaray. wrong bills, wrong contract dates, lost numbers etc etc, an unbeleivable mess in a mass scale. i tried their social media chat as outlined in their responses to other negative review here... even more useless, you get a reply every 3-5mins and the person you talk to changes every other message. complete waste of time for a company that does not value its customers. there customer base has gone down drastically over the years and now they are looking to join with the 3 network to stay viable business wise (3 being one of the bottom networks of the big 4, and vodafone isnt far off in its current state). id say go bankrupt and go away, vodafone is a shamble. ok while it works, if you have a problem, forget it, in most cases it never gets sorted and you just waste time going around in circles. and vodafone... dont even bother leaving me a reply here to contact you on your socials.. and if you do it will just accertain that you dont care enough to even properly read this negative review. needless to say ive moved away from that last service i has with you (a poxy pay as you go) and i will never use any vodafone or vodafone related service ever again in my life time. good riddance, and good bye. this company has truly become the definition of an utter fail.

    an absolute joke!
    slow speeds, shoddy connection, router not fit for purpose.

    And after the contract ends they have the nerve to threaten to fine me £72 for a router that I didn't return (becuase they hadn't bothered to send me the return label!)

    I got a mobile broadband contract on the 28th December 2017, i realised just like so many people that Vodafone was leaking massive data strangely, so i decided to cancel within my 30 day allowance. Got customer services on web chat and on the phone, they confirmed cancellation will take place no problems. about 3 weeks after i noticed they had cancelled my direct debit (so i was somehow assured they had cancelled the contract), Monday 19th February i receive a letter from them telling me that my account had been suspended for non payment of account! i call them up and got them on web chat, the guy says that as soon as your account is cancelled, they also automatically cancel your direct debit but they do this without producing a final bill!. this means that their system has no way of collecting the final payment thus likely to give a false impression of non payment on your credit file. So now i have to manually pay them £25 and then they will send back £17 into my account! what an abysmal service from a horrid company. Most people have had horrible stories to tell about Vodafone, i will certainly never have anything to do with this disjointed company again.

    Vodaphone has the worst customer service. Spent over 5 hours on several phone calls but no resolution. Had to cancel in the end, very frustrating talking to lots of people and explaining it over and over again. Moved house twice in the last 6 months and both times they have disconnected the broadband weeks before we were due to move. They tried to blame openreach for disconnecting us but they were told the correct dates at least 10 times. Terrible company, not supportive of key workers and those who need to work from home, avoid at all costs.

    Just appalling. I have changed to Carphone Warehouse but still with Vodafone. 8 days later and numerous calls later - each time being told it will be resolved quickly I am no further forward.
    I just don't want to have anything else to do with them but have to as I want to keep my number. Presumably that is why they just don't care about their customers. I suggest that you use any other provider apart from Vodafone.

    Worst I’ve ever had even compared to standard non fibre. Drops out regularly . Roku and Sky frequently need to be logged in. App always indicates speed around 50 while speed tests can indicate 5 or 7. Phones lose signal so one is now on 4G permanently.

    I read some very poor reviews of Vodafone broadband. Despite this, I took a chance for a few reasons. Firstly, they're £30 per month cheaper than BT. Secondly, I've had excellent service from them for my mobile phone accounts. And thirdly, they have a minimum speed guarantee or money back. Also, I was going on the belief that if the line was fast and reliable with BT (it was), it'd be a good foundation for Vodafone to work on. I have absolutely no idea if there's any technical merit in this belief, but I went with it anyway! My go-live date was 02-05-2018. No service by midnight, so I contacted them the next morning. They stated that BT/Openreach hadn't done what they were supposed to at their end. They said they'd look into it and get back to me. They apologised and credited my phone and my partner's phone with 50Gb of data each by way of apology and to see us through. Soon after, I received an email from BT that confirmed what Vodafone had told me. The service kicked in the next day. First day speed, 20Mbps. Next day, up to 32. Currently sitting at 46. I've paid for 76, guaranteed 55, and it seems to be gradually climbing in that direction. Their hub looks great, has good coverage in my 3 bedroom bungalow (performs better than BT hub in a blackspot in master bedroom) and I have not experienced any drop in service thus far. I have 4 firesticks, 4 echo dots, 2 smartphones, 2 tablets, 2 games consoles and 3 smart home devices connected to the hub. Six or seven of these devices could be operating simultaneously, and I have had no issues. So, one week in and I'm very happy. I know it's early days, but so far, so good. And I also have to say that I've always had very good customer service from Vodafone, and this time was no different. It appears that they are making a genuine attempt to mend their reputation in this regard, although as stated, I've never had a bad experience.

    I really regret changing from Sky, just did so as I was upgrading my phone and there was no line rental. Unfortunately the service got a lot worst almost exactly after the 30 day trial period or I would have swapped back. For a couple of weeks it was dropping every few minutes but that at least has improved now. It takes my ipad quite a bit of time to log in every time I turn it on, which was instantaneous with Sky.

    Vodafone cancelled my account very poor customer services poor broadband and not reaching broadband speeds I was suppose to go live with them on the 20th of November in the words of steps a total Tragedy don't trust Vodafone for your home phone or broadband they are totally untrustworthy and they don't stick to the contract that they have agreed with you Avoid this network unless you want to be ripped off with high bills I will be reporting this company to trading standards and ofcom.

    Worst Customer Service Ever, and you are not allowed to terminate your yearly contract! Avoid using Vodafone at all cost!

    I called them to give notice to terminate my broadband service at a specific date and was told that I cannot do that and will need to call back on the exact 30th day before the contract end date. After that, without listening to my request, they terminated my contract on an earlier date and put an early termination charge on my account. Their customer service team doesn’t listen to their customer’s request at all and they even hung up on me when I still haven’t finished asking the question. Poor service was provided in general.

    Another thing is that they only have very limited number of staffs at the call center which means you have to hold the line and listen to some bad taste music for so long before you can speak to an actual person. You thought you may ask them some questions through the online chat but then nothing can be done and you will have to keep calling back to that telephone number and hold the line for terribly long.

    Of course you are great... until I'm asking for my money back.
    I had to cancel my service due to change in work needs. It was within my cooling off period. You have taken a payment and i am trying to get it back. Numerous calls made to you. I often hang up due to the unreasonably long wait. I just got a REAL PERSON a miracle today. They went off for 'a few seconds' to look up details. They were gone at least 5 minutes and i had to hang up. some of us are at work and cannot stay on the phone for ages waiting for you. Where the hell do your agents have to go to look up details? Across the road? to another town? Why can't they look up on their computers. Your service level is terrible. I am now on hold yet again . been waiting over 25 minutes.

    i try often calling from home in the evening but never get a person at all.
    I am really disgusted and shall make sure to review you badly on every review site i can find. I expect you do this to people you owe money to so we give up. horrible company!

    Terrible is an understatement. Poor speed from day 1, 25% discount applied but service just got worse. trying to switch & discuss via Live Chat & Call Centre a complete nightmare; the system & agents don't know what they are doing or where to route the call

    I would recommend vodafone to anyone who fancies living without internet for two months. If not, then avoid at all costs. I wish I could comment on the speed but we are still currently waiting for an engineer to pay us a visit. Our first scheduled visit around the start of July had to be cancelled. However, when my partner tried to cancel it he was told that he couldn’t. When the engineer arrived to find that no one was in he called my partner and shouted abuse at him down the phone. Vodafone then rescheduled our appointment for two weeks time. The engineer did not turn up. When we contacted vodafone they had no idea why the engineer didn’t turn up and said they would call in a few days with information. Eventually we had to call them as they had forgotten to call us back. They rescheduled AGAIN for two weeks time on the 1st of August. During our wait, a member of the vodafone team accessed my partners personal details and messaged him on whatsapp which was completely inappropriate. The engineer failed to visit again and when we contacted vodafone, like the last time, they said they would contact us in a few days. Again, they did not. When my partner called they blamed OpenReach and the best they could do is reschedule for the 21st of August. They’ve tried to win us over with a free gift but just like the engineers, it probably won’t turn up either. Vodafone are completely unreliable and from what i’ve read, the wifi isn’t that great either. AVOID!

    Absolute bunch of cowboys! Dont go with this broadband company its a joke. We applied for the broad band 1 month ago and waited 2 weeks for an activation date (7th november) we still havent got any broadband we have rang 100 times and they all just say you have to wait. Surely not your given an activation date to go live for a reason. so angry we are self employed without internet. Liberty takers!

    I signed up for Vodafone’s 18 month super-fast broadband deal. At first, everything seemed fine. Set up was okay, connection was stable and consistent.

    My main issue and the reason why I have given Vodafone 1 star is because of customer service. When something goes wrong it is a BATTLE to try and get it resolved.

    Problems first arose when someone mistakenly entered my address for an EE broadband account. I notified Vodafone immediately and was reassured that the attempted switch would not happen. I have proof of this conversation through web chat logs receipted to my email.

    What happened next can only be described as a hilarious farce. The switch to EE continued. On 22nd July my broadband was deactivated and I received a “sorry to see you go” email at 4am. I had no prior notification of this switch continuing, and no knowledge of who was trying to pursue the broadband switch.

    Upon seeing the “sorry to see you go” email, I contacted Vodafone immediately to cancel the broadband switch once again. At this stage I was told by the sales representative that my account had already been deactivated and the only way they could fix this mess is by setting up a whole new broadband order. The earliest they could get me back up and running was 14 working days.

    I work from home, so this came as a huge blow to me that I could be deactivated from my account without my consent, without my authorisation, and without ANY warning. Vodafone have been incredibly obstinate and have tried to minimise this incident as much as they can.

    At first I was offered a free dongle and free-of-charge data plan to tide me over whilst I wait for my broadband to be reactivated. I was told to go to a Vodafone store that same day and that I could collect one, free-of-charge. That turned out to be an oversell – I had to purchase the dongle and data plan. I tried to chase Vodafone for reimbursement for this, as I was promised and reassured multiple times over the phone. I eventually got a refund for the dongle, but the airtime bill came to £200+ (after repeated promises, recorded from online chat, assuring me I would not be charged). I then had to get in contact AGAIN, only to be told that I need to pay the bill repeatedly, until someone who knew how to read the notes on my account realised that I was in fact promised a free airtime bill.

    Now we’re in August, and my new broadband order has been activated. It took a whole day to call up someone competent so they could ‘activate’ my internet connection, even though the line had now been switched to Vodafone and I should’ve been able to just plug in the router and go.

    I was promised (lol) that once I reactivated my broadband with Vodafone, adequate compensation could then be discussed. Obviously this isn’t happening. AVOID VODAFONE AT ALL COSTS.

    What happened to me is called slamming, and it's against ofcom's rules. I've been in contact with ofcom about this because Vodafone are truly ridiculous and about as helpful as a speck of dust. MY advice to other people is to get ofcom involved in any wrongdoing you suspect from Vodafone or other telecommunications companies.

    I have been tricked into joining Vodafone SuperFast 2. On the website i clicked broadband and then superfast 2. It brings up a comparison against other leading broadband providers with a comparison of speed, upfront cost, line rental etc. In the Speed (it states Mbps) Vodafone 63 - Virgin 108 - Sky 63 - BT 67 - This would be fine but the problem is Vodafone are comparing there 'Sync' speed to the download speed of the others making the comparison a scam! I joined as i was expecting to get 75+ Mbps for a great price! Except my actual download speeds are 30-37 witch is the same as my previous provider and is actually the Speed one would expect from there SuperFast 1 deal. I contacted support and was told the following witch i have a copy of in my email.

    .............
    Jessie : For my area CB98JS what is my Minimum download speed?
    Richa : Can you please confirm the complete address?
    Jessie : xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Richa : Thank you.
    Richa : Minimum guaranteed speed
    73.79 Mbit/s
    Richa : Apart from this, is there anything else I can help you with?
    Richa : Hi, are we still connected?
    Jessie : Is that minimum download speed? Or sync speed or are they one and the same?
    Richa : Ye right that's the same.
    Richa : Yes*
    Jessie : That is all. Thank you

    ^^ This from is from vodafone stating that Sync and Download speed are one and the same!!!!! Then why am i receiving 30-37 Mbps? I will tell you why! They scammed me into this contract! Customers care about Speed! Upload/Download and latency aka ping and who can offer that at the best price and what customer service do they offer. My Sync speed could be 1000000000000 Mbps and i would still be downloading at 30-37 Mbps. that is just the speed the router comunicates to the exchange as long as that speed is high enough to not affect my expected Upload and Download speed and latency then why would i or anyone else care? How Vodafone actually get away with this stunt is amazing!!

    Honestly dont join Vodafone Home Broadband You have no idea what ACTUAL Download and Upload Speeds You will be getting until Your in the contract! AVOID. The only positive i can think of is atleast even with all there speed lies and scam to grab customers the value for money is not bad i pay 36 a month and i get 30-36 mbps i know i should e=be getting double that but i fell for the sync speeds. Dont do the same! AVOID them at all costs! You have been warned

    Stay far, far away ! Absolutely shocking service. Activated Nov'19, had reasonable service until March this year. Have a long list of complaints registered with them with their promises of fixes. Supposed to be on Superfibre 2, ha! That's a joke in itself, speeds so slow it would be quicker on 4G, sent screenshots of speed tests but I must be lying as their app and gear says 80 when Ookla states 35 ! Terrible customer service, totally ignored, promises made and then not kept. If I could afford to break their contract I would. Awful, money grabbing company with no customer service at all.

    Like previous review said this company is completely a joke. If anyone would like to switch to Vodafone, my answer is No No No! I wouldn't give one star if I could! I switched to their full fibre expecting fast broadband, instead internet constantly drop off not even can stream any Amazon video, called numerous times always fobbed off by technical support team, reset from my end or their end, never actually solve the problems, this is supposed to be full fibre! Vodafone it's a shambles!

    AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS. I have never experienced any company as terrible in my life. I'm in disbelief.
    Took them 3 months to fit broadband, they are unable to deal with complaints. They tell you, you have the speed but this is pointless without connection. Everytime I call I'm on hold most of it being passed around for an hour. Horrendous customer services and product. They do not give a dam about customers.

    If I could put zero I would. Like the other reviews left, Vodaphone Broadband is basically non existent. Kept being fobbed off and passed from so called advisor to another. Their hubs are useless and we kept being told to move it to the most bazzare position and basically told it was out fault their system didn't work. No apologies or compensation offered. Have now left after three months of total frustration and lack of broadband. Still had to pay an exhorbitant exit fee having had no service whatsoever. Now back with BT and everything works wonderfully. Should have stayed with BT in the first place. Avoid at all costs.

    Incompetent and Dishonest. Frequent disconnections. Speed less than "guaranteed". Now the line has stopped working completely. They don't know when or if they will fix it. They couldn't be worse.

    Been with VF for a few months now, after switching from BT due to cost.
    Speed steadily getting worse with increasing drop-outs.
    Customer service have actually been very polite and helpful - have called me back on several occasions when promised. However I think they simply can't fix the issue. Basically speeds ( measured via various test sites) is consistently poor, plus the wi-Fi coverage in house seems inferior too.
    I am considering switching again (back to BT probably) as VF are unable to provide a fast stable service. I stream a lot of sport and it's impossible to enjoy a full football match without buffering / drop-outs

    Waiting for nearly five (5)!!! whole months to get super fast home broadband activated at the contracted speed in my home!!!! Endless call centre promises (I now know the songs by heart when you are in the queue!), made then not delivered on. There is a serious lack of agency and responsibility taking, in call centre responses. No staff seem empowered to actually do anything to help. You are just a can kicked down the road from pillar to post. It is incredible how they are swift to sign you up and take your money but when it comes to delivery it is BT Openreach or DPD the courier who are to blame. This has been the worst consumer experience in my entire life it makes me nauseous and I am considering further action this being the first step.

    Signed up in December 2017 for 76Mb, service seemed fine. Past couple of weeks have been getting 2Mb at peak times. After numerous calls/chats still not fixed. Keep being told to reset router, check wi-fi (it's rubbish even when wired). Avoid at all costs, got another 14 months of this terrible service as found minimum speed guarantee is only for connection from router to the street cabinet, not any further and they say this is 76Mb all the time

    Ever since we have switched to Vodafone our broadband has been ridiculously slow, don’t want to help when you call them, even went as far to tell my husband he was lying.
    Won’t even pla6 Netflix.
    Supposed to get 55 MB/S but is often 3-10
    Just not good enough.

    Absolute rubbish. I’m paying for 500mgs yet every time at peak hours connection goes. Can’t wait to get out of this contract - no doubt Vodafone will increase by 13% this year

    I don't normally write reviews but here goes..AVOID at all cost! Appalling customer service and they lied about Internet speeds, my rights, options for switching, cooling off period and they were generally unpleasant and unhelpful. Please do not consider taking out broadband with them

    Not sure what the hating is all about. After being with talktalk & Sky in the past Vodafone are a refreshing change. The best broadband customer service if not one the best customer service full stop.
    A few weeks after getting broadband it went down fof some reason & they sorted it, up & running again with an engineer within 24 hours. Changed my payment date twice & no issues at all. Speed is good, every now & again it may lag a little but its rare & tbh its to be expected, the speed is the same regardless who've I been with.
    Highly recommended, don't let the reviews put you off - don't forget most people only review to moan so you don't get to see the good side

    vodafone home broadband is the worst isp on todays market, they have internet traffic management that is placed on your fiber, with your normal fiber internet speed of 38mb during the day it will drop to 3mb a night between 7pm to 11.30pm, peak time and that is the time when its needed the most.that is realy bad service. dont sign up with them, pay few pounds more and go with isp that dont traffic management in place

    terrible,terrible service from vodafone. people please stay well away from vodafone broadband. (0 star to customer service)( minus 100 star to internet speed) not connected ontime, sent me a massive bill even though i disconnected the service within 30 days cooling off period. people be aware that if you are on a 76 mg package you will sometimes get speed as low as 3 mg. YES you saw it right, 3MG. that is preposterous. when you phone them, bear in mind that you have to stay on the phone for a minimum of 45 mins to get through and when you get through they never accept that this ridiculous speed is what you are getting and try to persuade you that there is something wrong with your household( wiring etc) when its actually them try to rip you off. two words. STAY AWAY

    Atrocious broadband, swapped from Sky who were quite adequate and have been forced to swap again because the service from Vodafone has been possibly the worst service that I have paid for in my life, slow to mediocre speed, worse than average ping but worst of all by far the frequent disconnects - 1 or 2 every hour, unable to stream videos or play computer games because of he constant interruptions, I will never use Vodaphone for anything again for the rest of my days.

    Categorically will never use again and recommend the same to anyone else. No one there seems to have the foggiest idea what service they can provide. Set up was delayed by a month (after they said install could go ahead straight away) and then didn't work properly for a further month. Once resolved, speed was as advertised for contract duration. Real issues came at contract end where I spent a month fighting to end contract without charges; initially they wanted £170 despite being in cooling off period after contract renewal. Called repeatedly to have this reduced to £0. Then they continued billing us so had to call again multiple times. Each call resulted in an hour on the phone, being passed from one person to the next, being placed on hold for long periods etc. Strongly advise finding a better provider, they might seem cheap but for good reason - they also ramped our bill up 25% in second year which was the reason for leaving in the first place.

    Signed up Home Broadband with Vodafone. It is supposed to go live on 13 Sept but didn't happen. After multiple calls with Vodafone, they top me up 50GB on my mobile, so that I can still use hotspot to work with my laptop. Vodafone said the broadband should go live after midnight. Next day still the same, no broadband. Call Vodafone again, the support staff said there was a technical fault on the line that OpenReach needs to resolve and it won't get fixed until 18th Sept!!!! So Vodafone left my family stranded without internet at all for another 5 days!!! The live chat staff ensured me that I can collect a USB mobile dongle from a nearby Vodafone store to plug into my broadband router for the time being.

    So I went to a store to collect it. The staff said you can't get it free. They have to put a £20 charge on my account and sign up a new £30 monthly contract for that. Then cancel within 30 days after the broadband is fixed and get a £20 refund back.

    Despite endless hours (and many more in the future) of trying to sort it out and none of this is my fault (well, apart from signing with Vodafone Broadband), THEY UPSALE MY PROBLEM.

    All the customer service teams were trying to be helpful and polite but there solutions actually bring more hassle.

    Since I am going from a normal broadband to fibre which I imagine it requires proper technical upgrade at the exchange box, I would recommend anyone to sign a 12 months fibre contract with the broadband company which actually owns the physical line and then switch to another cheaper fibre provider after that.
