The nightmare with Vodafone continues! I ordered an iPhone the day after they were released from the Vodafone shop - Moved my Optus account to Vodafone and waited to upgrade to the iPhone plan (as advised to me by the Vodafone shop assistant) - 3 days later was hit with a $550.00 internet usage charge on a phone I was using that doesn't have internet access - was still waiting for my iPhone to arrive. Gave up with Vodafone - too many excuses blaming Apple for everything. they even said the phone wasn't going to be locked but they are - these people are lying to everyone and then trying to lock you into a 2yr contract - Beware!! Even if you want to get out of the contract for poor service etc... Vodafone wont care - you have to pay the full contract exit fee's. If you complain they just hang up on you - Vodafone Custoemr Care = Customer Dont Give a F#@K
