Vodafone network has been absolutely pathetic in Mumbai and suburbs since the past few months. Not just voice, but data too. Can confirm.
 
Might be due to the merger ?
 
I think its more to do with their upgrade from 3g to volte. And yes, I agree with @Nishant, their network has been absolutely pathetic since 2 months and its not just me...everyone's complaining about it.
 
i am seeing a lot of tweets from vodafone people about network being down in the recent days. the problem seems very widespread.
 

I agree too. Here in Kolkata, few days ago everyone I know who uses Vodafone was facing similar problems like calls were getting disconnected randomly and sometimes as soon as the person received the call, the line got disconnected.
 
I had call disconnect randomly 2 times today and happened earlier too. It showed me "Call failure"

Caller was from landline so he can not be going out of range and my mobile was showing full signal - yet it got disconnected.
 
Anyone else experiencing degraded network performance after the Vodafone idea merger ? I am from Mumbai and I am experiencing a lot of call drops, full 4g network but data not moving, and frequent 4g, 3g and 2g band switching for no reason.
 
Hi. I'm getting no network. I get 1-2 bars only at the streets now. I used to get 1-2 bars at my home. Now's no-signal always.

What do we do now? It's totally shit network now.

@Aakash Malhotra What do you say? We both have same case.
 
I am using Idea for many years now. Recently 2-3 times I found that when I reach home, there is no signal at all!
I actually had very good signal for Idea and internet speed on 3G was also very good (before 4G arrived), and for that reason I had ported my Vodafone to Idea 2-3 years back.
After merger instead of getting better, Network is going worse it seems.
 
It seems that they are reducing towers to reduce cost.

If Idea and Vodafone towers are close by then they remove (deactivate) one of the tower to save cost.

So more people on same tower and hence worse network.
 
Read somewhere that Idea Vodafone need to shed customers in few circles so they are within 50% customer share limit per circle. May be this is the way to lose customers 😀
 
wow.


i dont want to switch to airtel because their signal strength is very poor around my house.

cant switch to jio because phone only supports 3g.

i guess complaining to vodafone about this will be useless.
