What a bunch of jokers!  I've just been looking at 2 degrees prices and wondering whether vodafone are doing any offers... and their site's down.

What a shambles.

Ha ha... I found the same problem accessing Vodafone's website from my Vodafone Red network connection. Not a great look for them.

That would be weird, why would they sign a national roaming agreement with them, and then try and beat their prices??

Most websites are updated in the wee small hours when traffic is least. 10pm is hardly an appropriate time to take down a major communications website.

As I said before, What a shambles.

You don't need to take a down a website to update it peoples! Content management systems all websites have them.

If their websites down it's a technical not content reason but I heard on the radio this morning that some towns been without Vodafone signal for 4 days now!!!
