Dear Consumer Action Group I am at my wits end of a very painful process. Ive no where else to turn, Ive been speaking to Vodafone on numerous occasions over the last week and even emailed Stefan Langkamp, as a last resource, but still had no response. Here is a potted history. I have two handsets on pay monthly with Vodafone. One of these with Vodafone for at least 5 years or more, the second, two years. It came to the time where contracts were coming up for expiry, so i took a look around at vodafones offers and found them, not to be very competitive. So after a couple of false starts of Vodafone trying to stop me from leaving with offers, that were the same as the website. I asked to leave and served thirty days notice. So one handset was to be ceased on the 30th May and the second on the 14th June. I received PAC codes for both and was told to use them within 30 days or they would expire. They also noted, that if i ported the numbers before the end of the contracted terms above, then i would incur a penalty, even though id paid upfront for the airtime. During the next thirty days, i received numerous calls from Vodafone, again asking me to stay, but offering me nothing that reflected my loyalty to the company. In fact, the specific handset i was looking to upgrade was an Iphone. What really surprised me, was a comment from Vodafone, which was was on at least three occasions. This was: "I'm sorry, there is nothing extra, i can add to the offer as Apple fix the terms we can offer. Seem to me, like anti competitive behavior. But that a different story. So, the first handset ceased last week and was told once the PAC code had expired, i just needed to ring back for a new one. In the meantime, the second handset was ceased ahead of the contract date. So, i now had two handsets, switched off, one with a PAC code that was expiring and one that had just expired. So i called Vodafone and they said there had been no changes, then mysteriously the handset came back on. So, while i was on the the phone, i asked for new PAC codes and was told, that it wouldn't be possible until the PAC codes had expired. Which is contrary to a latter view. So, apologies, bit of a long potted history, but the point as i explained to Vodafone UK call centre was, that they don't explain the process properly, they assume you know. Yesterday, i asked for a new PAC code for the second handset, which was duly given, with no problems. But when i asked for the PAC code for the first handset, i was told it wasn't possible without going back onto one months airtime, which in turn would generate a new PAC code. So, i took this up on email to complaints and was told, i could no longer have the number at all. Three emails later, the same thing, with the addition of. As you are a valued customer can i suggest you ring our upgrade team, as we have some special offers. Finally last night, i spoke to the call centre and was kept on the line for over 30 minutes, trying to explain, why i thought information id been given was incorrect and misleading. Eventually, the agent agreed to give me 30 days airtime free as a gesture of goodwill, then kept me hanging on for another ten minutes. Before hanging up. Can you imagine the time and frustration of all the calls, emails, tweets, miss-information. Its ridiculous. I came to CAG, as Ive seen some issues be resolved, so this is my last shot. Stefan, wont respond, Ive also written to the chairman and yes i have his email address. All, because Vodafone are not competitive and do not show loyalty to long terms customers. So Vodafone, if you are reading this, its simple. Just give me the PAC code for the first handset and we can draw a line underneath the whole disappointing experience. kind regards AWD
