for my sins I am a virgin customer,last year I upgraded my htc desire to a Samsung galaxy I have just rang them up and after going thru all the usual pre recorded bollox[which winds me up!!] I asked for the unlocking code for my old htc phone which I had paid for!! I was told I have to pay £15 to unlock the phone, I then got into an argument as I have paid for this phone and you are trying to screw me for another £15. roll on another 6 months then my contract with virgin ends. wankers

Vodafone are extremely good when it comes to customer service. instead of all the usual pre-recorded shit they regularly ring you just to ask if you're happy with everything (and are more than happy to let you go and get on with your day if you say yes), always send txts to let you know when you're close to data usage allowances, regularly give free offers to loyal customers (i got a 100% free Ipad2 last year just for having paid my bills on time) and give you free early upgrades.
having said that, their coverage is shocking at times.

Didn't give me a bloody iPad the twats The good thing with them is they have a 24hour chat thing on their site so its easy enough to talk to um, which I might have to as I aint had a conformation email of them for my upgrade (not the best time to do it probably with all thats going on).

I'm on a sim only deal with Virgin and I have to say no one else can get near them for customer service and price, why don't you unlock the phone yourself it'll cost you a fiver or take it into one of the many mobile shops around they'll do it to you for a tenner. Next time you buy a phone get it from CPW they all come network free. Gouranga.

Moved my wife's phone to virgin a couple of weeks ago and still waiting for her number to change despite loads of calls to the helpline then the tech help line now the 'porting' team despite lots of calls cut off while being transferred. I have TV, broadband, home phone and 3 mobiles with Virgin because they offer the best deal but at some point service becomes an issue! Can't be arsed to keep calling; I get home at the weekend and it's sorted or I move them all

I was with Virgin for years and never had to think about what sort of phone service I got because nothing was wrong with it. Switched to Vodafone and have to put up with the message telling me 'no network available' more times than not. I have hardly ever used the internet on it because most of the time it's unavailable. Bloody useless and I'll be switching back to Virgin ASAP.

Vodafone have the worst coverage of all their rural coverage is absolutely terrible. If you visit the countryside a lot, work outside of the city or live in a small town stay well away from Vodafone.
