I signed up to the Vodafone offer of a free modem, up to 7.2MB connection for Ł15 a month and I was conned. When I checked their web page it tested my post code for signal strength and it showed as excellent. However, since I got the modem with sim my top conection is less than dial up.

Worse still, almost every page is blocked by Vodafone (something to do with content control), but after several emails and phone calls they refuse to remove it, nor will they do anything about connection speed.

The content control is supposed to protect under 18's, they refuse to accept that I am 55 years of age.

I am still under the 14 day return option so they will be getting it returned. Do yourself a favour and go with an outfit that can deliver, as vodafone certainly can't.
