Hi,
I received a faulty phone from Vodafone (sometimes it displays nothing even though there is "life" in the phone) where i have been a customer for 2 years. I received this phone on the 6th went on holiday come back and started using the phone requesting that my number change (because of PPI calls), they happily arranged this.
Once i reported the faulty phone they said that they would send a courier to switch the phone for a brand new one which i was pretty happy with. Then the customer service assistant discovered i had changed my number and that this switch wasn't possible and told me that a courier would have to come and pick the phone up, take it for repair then have it sent back to me. I asked for some times scales as i need my phone as part of my job and she couldn't give me any and the earliest the courier could get to me was the 25th.
So not only am i sat with a broken phone for 6 days I also don't know how long im going to be without a phone. When i pressed on the issue of weather its going to be a week, month or year she still couldn't give me any sort of indication. To top it all off i get a faulty phone that's been refurbished when surely i should be entitled to a brand new phone.
Surely I'm entitled to a better service than i received I'm just not too sure the best way of going about it. Could somebody suggest the best way?
Thank you.
