Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 85 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Many customers found the service to be excellent, efficient, and straightforward, often highlighting the ease of switching providers and the helpfulness of the staff. People frequently praised the fast and next-day delivery, with some receiving their new phones within hours of ordering. Reviewers were also very pleased with the competitive prices and deals, often finding better offers than directly from network providers. However, some customers also noted issues with the product, such as receiving phones with fingerprints or food residue, which detracted from the new phone experience.

Additionally, some reviewers experienced problems with delivery timing and carriers like DPD, leading to delays and inconvenience.

Really disappointed

The phone arrived with finger prints on it, including on both lens and a blob of something like food on it. Did not get that new phone experience at all, really disappointed.

I cancelled the phone order within 48 hours of ordering and cancelled with Vodafone and yet DPD still continue to keep attempting delivery. I have explained to them the item needs to be returned to sender and they agree and then change the delivery date to the next day. Please can someone contact me about this order?

Good Morning Victoria,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re very sorry to hear that you’ve had a frustrating experience and appreciate the opportunity to respond.

Having reviewed your account, we haven’t received any prior communication requesting cancellation of the order. When the device was returned to us, it was automatically reshipped. This happens when a delivery has been missed three times and the parcel is sent back to us by the courier, at which point our returns team process it for redelivery.

If you would now prefer to cancel the order, we would be more than happy to arrange this for you. We can request a return to sender with the courier and ensure the contract is disconnected with the network.

Please note that billing begins from the date the handset is dispatched, so line rental charges may apply while the return is being processed. Any line rental costs incurred during this period will be refunded by the network on your next billing cycle, minus any chargeable usage. This can take up to 4 weeks to reflect.

We’ve also attempted to contact you directly to discuss this further. Please feel free to reply to us or call 0333 900 1144 (option 2), and we’ll be happy to resolve this for you as quickly as possible.

Kind regards,
MJ

Good service, bad delivery

Would have been 5 stars but their delivery service is DPD who repeatedly fail to deliver to our address whenever we come into contact with them, and I got my phone a week late.

Cost effective and efficient service

Very impressed with the cost of the Vodafone plan and handset. Very pleased that Next Day delivery was achieved (very helpful).

Only niggle was a second unwanted sim card (VOXI) was included in the delivery. No explanation was provided by Metrofone. When I contacted their Customer service about this matter they confirmed I could just discard the unwanted sim card. Seems wasteful and confusing to customers.
