Contract problem with Vodaphone

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone could help- I'm currently having problems with my mobile internet, in that it doesn't connect anywhere! I reported the problem to Vodafone and they said there were some issues and they'd get them sorted. This was early March, and it's still not fixed. Do I have a leg to stand on if I want to cancel my contract without paying out of it, as they've not been providing me a service I'm paying for for over a month?

    If they did admit problems on their side that failed to rectify during 2 month you do have a leg to stand on.

    Vodafone admitted there were site issues on 21/03/14, so do I go from this date? That means it's been nearly a month, however this problem has been going on for a lot longer.

    Well, "site issues" isn't the same as "problems with my mobile internet".

    Ah, demand cancellation without fees then and, if they refuse, take the case to the ombudsman.

    Yes sorry, when they said 'site issues' they were referring in regard to mobile data when I gave them the postcodes of places where I get no connectivity. Thank you for your advice.
