Yeah, their customer service is average at best, I think it's worse for their mobile services though. We have the Ultimate home and broadband package and MySky with them, and no complaints about any of the services so far. We've never gone over 20GB though, as far as I know, not even close.]]> Wed, 19 May 2010 21:50:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33483&PID=1034263&title=vodafone-broadband-and-phone#1034263 <![CDATA[Vodafone.. broadband and phone : Well we are (we think!) finally...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33483&PID=1034258&title=vodafone-broadband-and-phone#1034258 Author: Chickaboo

Well we are (we think!) finally signed up with vodafone... we almost told them to forget it as their help desk was pretty bad - we had trouble with the online form charging us a $99 connection fee which we were told there was none just the $49 mysky fee.

I certainly hope thats the only problems we have!]]> Wed, 19 May 2010 21:46:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33483&PID=1034258&title=vodafone-broadband-and-phone#1034258 <![CDATA[Vodafone.. broadband and phone : We have the Ultimate pack too...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33483&PID=1034249&title=vodafone-broadband-and-phone#1034249 Author: Parki

We have the Ultimate pack (20G for $100) and have never had any problems. We don't make too many toll calls but have never had connection issues with the phone or the broadband.
And I've always had really good service from the helpdesk people too.
They were a bit slow when we were first setting up and were out of stock of the wireless modems at the time so they gave us a free other modem which we still have if need be some day.]]> Wed, 19 May 2010 20:56:15 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33483&PID=1034189&title=vodafone-broadband-and-phone#1034189 <![CDATA[Vodafone.. broadband and phone : The customer service we recieved...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33483&PID=1032984&title=vodafone-broadband-and-phone#1032984 Author: kellie

I had issues with Vodafone when we rented the internet kept dropping out but turns out that it was because the wiring in the phone jack was rusty. I find their tech desk awesome. They walk you through everything they had me try everything before they sent out a technician to avoid being charged for the service man.

At mum and dads the internet has dropped out a few times unsure why its just talking to the modem. The phone line here has stopped working as well, possibly because the wires are under the house and are frayed so therefore not working.

For this household we need the 20gb, we've only hit the 80% mark once which is good, but we regularly go well over 10gb.

I'll look at who we go with when we move next time depending on the area.]]> Tue, 18 May 2010 19:48:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33483&PID=1032672&title=vodafone-broadband-and-phone#1032672 <![CDATA[Vodafone.. broadband and phone : There&#039;s a story on Target...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33483&PID=1032543&title=vodafone-broadband-and-phone#1032543 Author: minik8e

We have wireless broadband and phone line with vodaphone - we pay about $80 a month for 3 gig - its crap
We often loose our connection
Our first bill was $170 cause they stuffed it up, and they cant figure out why so we had to pay it and they will try and fix before the next one

We havent been here long so they had better sort it out or we will sack em - DH needs it for work

We are rural - north auckland

Agree with Booski re customer service or rather lack of! woosh are awesome but you need to be in a good area for them - seems quite sensitive - but once we were set up - awesome!

We are with them. I love mysky. Our internet is a bit dodgy but I am not sure if that is across the board. I am used to highspeed in the USA so I think I am spoilt. We had a problem with our phone so I called them and they arranged for a telecom technician to come out and sort the problem. Apparently all the lines are telecom owned etc so I would expect the same product just different retailers if you get what I mean. Probably goes for internet too. Hope this helps.]]> Tue, 18 May 2010 16:04:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33483&PID=1032296&title=vodafone-broadband-and-phone#1032296 <![CDATA[Vodafone.. broadband and phone : AandCsmum wrote:I usually pay...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33483&PID=1032280&title=vodafone-broadband-and-phone#1032280 Author: MissCandice

we're at the same place FattyKat - 99% sure we want to swap over just wanted to get feed back on how people find it all.

we also want to keep our xtra email for about a month more - then we will know everything has changed over - think it costs about $5 but hubby is going to ring them and find out
