I sent a message via that link and got a call back today. Straight away my call failed, so I rang them back on my landline. Very frustrating conversation followed - according to Vodaphone there is no problem, and I can buy a booster for a bargain 50% off, just ?50 (!). Explained that I pay a monthly fee for them to provide me with a mobile network, and I shouldn't have to fork out any more, and miraculously it is now free.


However, he still absolutely denied that there is a problem. I have been told to keep a record of failed calls, no service etc. for the next 24 hours and ring them back. Apparently if others do the same it will strengthen the case for them to take it seriously, so please, anyone suffering the same shoddy service, keep a note and ring them.


I've been with Vodaphone for nearly 13 years, but since December last year the service has been constantly patchy. My contract is up for renewal and I think I'll go elsewhere. Recommendations?

Just to update, I phoned again this evening with my 24 hour log of service (none/limited when at home or nearby, fine when outside of my immediate area). They have now admitted that there is a problem with the mast, affecting both standard signal and 3G in the area. No indication of when this will be rectified, but apparently I'll receive a credit on my account (I doubt this will happen without me pushing for it).


In the meantime I have a phone I can't use for anything useful. Very frustrating.

We've just moved in to SE22... down the bottom end of LL and get ZERO reception in the house... have to go out the front for any kind of weak signal.

Vodafone declined our request to be sent a signal booster... suggested we buy one online for ?100?! No thanks!

They are now crediting our accounts circa ?35/month until they fix the signal tower (they have admitted one of their towers is faulty) so complain away to try and at least cover some of your monthly fee!

Lets just hope they get it up and running as I'd rather have signal than a reduced bill! :(

Has something happened to Vodafone reception locally in the past couple of weeks?


I've never had a problem but have come back from holiday to find that I have zero reception even on my Blackberry (which works just about anywhere in the country). I'm halfway along Lordship Lane.

    • Unfortunately Nissan was a disaster of a company when it created your car and still is, and most recently created another combined disaster alliance with Renault. Be aware, the trade value on your car is really low as no one wants to do the work & it's often only when it reaches near scrap value that someone (else) is willing to invest (their money) to try and fix. So if you're willing to front the money and fix your car that (you know) then that is most likely your best option (also understanding that it is outrageous that you should have to replace a CVT gearbox after 50K). If that isn't appealing consider a new Skoda Fabia 1.0 (Auto) on finance if you can't afford cash, it will last 20yrs.... (and avoid cars from the Stellantis group)
    • If you are referring to me, I was using my mobile. Just quoting the post I was replying to would have made no sense without showing my original post as well. I wouldn't have been able to do that on a "real PC" either, assuming I carried one around with me everywhere. It's nothing to do with what I'm using, it's the way the forum is set up to quote posts. I did insert a screenshot showing the keyboard by mistake.
    • You have to book for the Sunday roasts in advance. I have bad memories of once going for a circular  walk around Downe and then trying to eat. The Queens Head staff (and customers)  looked at us as if we were mad for attempting to get a meal without booking. The other pub in the village  reeked of bleach.  We had to  drive around in search of a meal, and ended up at some large pub whose name and location  I have thankfully forgotten. All I remember is the food, which was truly awful.
