Vodafone Automotive

[RL17]

Has the service changed over last few months. Used to get calls when on eurotunnel and car moves without engine on and other occasions etc. Do they just send texts now with you can't answer or detect if you're driving and has number changed for replies to alerts?

Just called customer services and 9 calls ahead - hope not like that if you ever need them in a hurry!

Called them to renew yesterday (condition of insurance) and I waited so long I ended up renewing for 3 years as I cannot be sitting through that again next year. Complete rip-off though as it is not transferable if I sell the car.

Also same tech and service as any mother make so why is it so much more expensive because it is on an Aston (mind you my I gather the charge for Bentley is even more)!

My experience with the Vodafone setup is more positive. I was recently at Works and my car was in the front car park and was moved to the service bay, I was called before the car reached the bay! No problems when I called to tell them my eurotunnel times so no alerts. I appreciate that it’s a couple of hundred pounds or so but that’s only two tanks of premium fuel when I was touring France.

They still call me when I forget to take my swab, last time was a couple of weeks ago

they also call when they detect that the battery in the fob is weak or needs replacing
