this happend at vodafone dictatorship forums. seriously were is the freedom of expression, here, i cant belive, my thread, was stopped, and, instead, linked with a big thread, which would make it difficult, to get the data i require, and i have a feeling, my thread, was stopped, cause, vodafone, just doesnt want us to share the truth. i know this 500mb, is already being disucussed, but this is different, as i only wanted to establish, by how much are people, actually going over, so that we can make an informed decision, here, why do you guys start these forums when you are not prepared, for the truth, i strongly feel, this thread, is in the appropriate place, on its own, as it doent have anything to do with the thread, you linked it to, so please give us a break will you, here is what i asked for initially-
OK I know theirs another thread raging regarding the so called 500mb now in light of some members being able to change to an iPhone tariff even without having an iPhone (please don't qoute me on this one ),as I have picked this somewhere in the middle of this whole date jungle mess. My question is for those who have been going over the 500mb by how much have you guys actually been going over are we talking 1gig, 2gig,750mb, or even more. Am just hoping we can share how much you guys have actually been going over cause if someone was to then swop to the iPhone 1gig tariff I feel we would be disadvantaged as the iPhone one is apparently a hard cap were as the 500mb is fup. So please can we share by how much those that have been going over have been going over by how much thanks.

    Why don't you do another simple rantless post on this thread, without the invective and, perhaps, some punctuation and grammar so that (a) we can read it and (b) you can get a response.

    Keep it simple, please.

    You don't have freedom of speech on a private website. If you don't like it, start your own website.

    If you tried calmly expressing what you are saying with some punctuation then people might actually get beyond the third line of your post.

    Your thread was similar so it was merged, if you believe this was incorrect and your thread was about a different issue then contact the !!!!!! team.

    I suspect that when the thread was merged, this post may have had a "Morecambe and Wise/ Andre Previn" moment. You may recall that when Previn accused Morecambe of playing all the wrong notes, Morecambe replied "I am playing all the right notes, but not necessarily in the correct sequence".

    I often wonder why when someone turns to this or any forum for advice there are those, that instead of helping, will always do their best to add to the woes that the poster is feeling.

    It is clear that Vixomy is feeling very strongly about his experience on the VF forums and is 'venting these feelings onto his keyboards'. Has nobody else ever done this? Having dealt with the VF forums myself I can understand his frustrations. @ RBT is correct in saying that you do not have 'freedom of speech' on a private website yet VF 'sells' its forum as if it is an open forum.

    I have found from my own experience that in the event of critisizing VF or voice any opinion that the VF moderator cannot answer they have two actions. One being as Vixomy has found that they simply close the thread or remove the posts or as I found they also barred me. The other action is 'mob rule', suddenly out of the blue you will find offensive posts by several first time posters in a well planned effort to shame you. These comments will not be removed by the moderator even on request. I have experienced both and seen it action against several threads.

    People post on forums because they have no joy with the networks, they come for advice not to be put down. It's odd that VF own C/S dept leaves a lot to be desired yet they have funds to allow a specialist team to scan forums to let us believe they have some compassion and care. :rotfl:

    Your thread was similar so it was merged, if you believe this was incorrect and your thread was about a different issue then contact the [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]!!!!!![/EMAIL] team.

    Nothing abuse here can do about a thread on the Vodaphone forums, there was no thread started here by the OP regarding this topic but I will refer the OP to the thread on MSE.
