got home and it was still very poor.
ive had i think 3 sim cards and 2 phones.
matty, this is my first 'smart phone' before it i had some nokia crap that didnt go on the net, and the signal still wasnt great then.
i got the iphone thinking i could access the net anywhere, which is simply not the case.
i guess i should have checked the vodafone coverage before rushing into it as i said.
the village i live in has never been great for signal, but everyone at work bar those on vodafone do not have any issues. one other guy in the workshop is on vodafone and has a htc phone, he does not get good reception either.
everyone else seems to be on either orange, 3 or o2... and now we know why lol
Unfortunately then, 13 months in, you don't have a leg to stand on. If you were 2 or 3 months into your contract then you would of had grounds to cancel the contract free of charge but waiting so long then you've got no chance.
You've got circa 11 months left to go so at the minimum monthly fee you've got about 390 left to pay. I'd sell the iphone for about £200 and then start a new contract with a different company and carry on paying the vodaphone bill every month until the contract is finished. Minus the £200 from the phone you'll be about another £190 out of pocket.
