Fight back against the buffoonery endemic to Vodafone

Michael from Waikanae

Fed up with Vodafone? (I fear it will only get worse now they have been sold.) I have an idea below, but first:
Here's what I have experienced having just moved here - sound familiar to you?
TV constantly dropping out in the evening. Installation snafus. Can't record TV programs. Promised a consolidated bill for fiber, TV, phone - that took four months and I still get an extra bill. I was promised TV on demand still doesn't work.
Calling customer service is torture, long wait times, and the folks in the Philippines call center are not really empowered to help - and don't really care to. (Why can't they employ NZ people?)
Below is an idea to get the sinecures (I mean executives) at Vodafone to get their damned act together. (For any lawyers out there if Vodafone fails to provide adequate service or live up to their sales people's empty promises, then is that grounds for cancelling contract?)
You can find all the executives in LinkedIn. Send them a strong message expressing your disgust. Don't insult, just point out their terrible service. The top guy is: Jason Paris. Go here: www.linkedin.com...
You will also see links to the so-called Consumer Director at Vodafone New Zealand Matt Williams www.linkedin.com...
and others who are supposed to be involved in customer relations. Tell them how you feel. Let's start a campaign.
