Is anyone else having serious problems with Vodafone reception? Since Thursday, I've had next to no reception in my house (off Forest Hill Road) and it's not great until I'm well away from home. My neighbour had a visitor at the weekend who also had the same problem on the same network. Is there any reason for it? The Vodafone website doesn't list any issues so I was wondering if it might be my handset playing up.

I've been with Vodafone for years, living in this area, and only had trouble for the last four days so don't think it's a general signal issue. Interesting you're also having problems, meadow. I'm now unable to send texts or make calls even when my phone tells me there's a signal.


Not sure why this is in the Lounge when the BT thread is in general talk by the way? I'm asking about a fault, not looking to discuss Vodafone reception in general. Could it go back?

It's not good in my own home either and I am on a hill. I believe it's because of the steel in our block of flats' structure even though I can get fine TV reception. Vodaphone (I refuse to use f for phone...!) told me recently there were two new masts going up in our area, one in Peckham Rye SE15 side where I live. I think they use a fake / dead tree opposite the old closed down toilet block on East Dulwich Road...!

There is one mast going up in Brockley and one in Nunhead, both apparently in April, according to Vodafone. I, too, live on a hill, and calls are dropped every time a plane goes overhead.


Anyone suffering from last week's problem in Forest Hill Road should apply for a refund - Vodafone say they will be refunding me. Not holding my breath, particularly as their response to my first enquiry regarding the problem was that it would be fixed when the new masts go up!

My husband and I are both having problems too (have been for about two weeks). We live on Ryedale so same area it seems. We've been on the phone to Vodafone who are saying to us that they don't believe that there is a fault and that it must be our phones!!


My OH is now raising an official complaint - if anyone hasn't reported there problem to Vodafone, please could you do so so that they believe us??


It seems we are all getting very different information..:-S

Spent well over an hour last night trying to get through to someone who could actually give me information. After speaking to 3 or 4 people I, too, was told there was absolutely no fault with reception. Had to explain in detail that we had already been through the testing of the handset with them and no problems there. Apparently they have to have 10 complaints from one area before they do anything. One person said she knew there had been problems with various sites and put me through to tech dept from which I got a recorded message to dial 191 - which was the number dialled anyhow!


I am quite happy to add my name to any official complaint - I live off Honor Oak Rise. I see Vodafone used to have a forum - will look to see if it still exists.

    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him 
    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant.
