    FAIL

    Rubbish service as usual!

    Yep couldn't access the page got a 503 error like everyone else. When I tried over wi-fi on my N95 I kept getting redirected to the Vodafone Corporate page, how crap is that! Until Vodafone get their woeful online precence sorted out they can never hope to be a serious player in this market.
