Is anyone else having sh***y reception with vodafone? Or is it just my iPhone 4? I heard vodafone is going through a merger with 3 but my phone has had very little reception if any at all for at least 8 months or so. It cant be taking that long can it?

you would have to look into it but basicly they are not providing the service (ie reception) as described in the contract so they have voided it. Means you should not have to pay a thing to end it, this info is just from what i have heard and in no way is it the rule.

Best thing is to ring them and while being polite but firm (remember the person on the other end of the phone is just doing their job and is not personally accountable for the lack of service) tell them that you have had very little to no service for x amount of time and that you would like the contract ended so you can go to another carrier.

Make sure you get the persons NAME and I.D NUMBER (if they have one) incase it does not work so you can ring back up and say that you spoke to said person on date whatever.

Tell me about it

I have no reception in my freaking room. Imagine that I've got to place my face at the window just to make a call and it isn't guranteed that my call won't disconnect.

I feel i'm getting substantial performance only... very very unhappy especially when my mates on Telstra or Optus have no problems at all.

I'm on Vodafone with a Blackberry.

PS will have to get you to take some photo's of the new to me car once it arrives, maybe on the next cruise.

Cheers

I called them...they told me I had to go down to the nearest vodafone shop so I did on my lunch today...an guess what? They told me to call up because they couldn't do anything in the shop! :@ not very happy :/ i know they are just working there but still you think they could at least try and help :/

Yeah - I copped thatr one myself once.

The second time they tried to do it I arced up on the phone, demanded to speak to a supervisor and got 3 months free access. Still, 3 months free access kinda gets cancelled out by 3 months of patchy/no service, slow as fcuk data transfer, constant drop outs and text messages recieved up to 2 DAYS after being sent to me.....

Tell me about it. I'm with 3 and I cant even get 3G in the whole of Hillarys where I live. Then because they give me shitty reception they charge me extra for data when being outside of the 3G zone. I tried to stop it but it turns out its my facebook getting notifications even when I'm not signed in. Anyone know how to get the thing to stop synchronising itself on the internet? Its costing me precious fuel money.

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
