However this number rang me another few times after this rant then I got a bizarre voicemail from the same number “If you no longer wish to be called by phones4u please ring 0800 2946090″

So I did and another automated voice said “If you now longer with to be called by phones4u please press star now” – So I pressed the star button and it hung up on me

No more phone calls from phones4u… for 24 hours. Had another 30+ calls since then

Beyond a joke I’m afraid. Because of this I’ve decided to just ring up and cancel my vodafone contract. I’ve been with vodafone for over 5 years now but the way phones4u deal with customers is an absolute joke, so I’m moving to o2 and an iphone

I’ve had similar experiences of companies calling me repeatedly – it drives me crackers!

It’s worth registering on the Telephone Preference Service website to avoid this. This way as long as you don’t agree to marketing you won’t receive these calls.

I work for the Vodafone eForum Team and we are dedicated to resolving customer queries online. I was troubled by the experience you described when calling us.

The number that called you is Phones 4 U and not Vodafone. I still want to offer any help I can.

There is no option on the network to stop individual numbers calling you – but where there’s a will, there’s a way! Send me an email from the Contact Us page of our website with a link to this page and FIT135 in the body of the text (so that you are routed straight to my team) and I’ll be happy to make any calls on your behalf to Phone 4 U to request them to stop calling you. We don’t have any control over what they do but I’ll do everything I can to help.

Speak to you soon!

P.S I had a nosey round the rest of you site and just wanted to say I love Digg and completely agree about orange women!
