Fegal Farragher: “overall complaint volumes have remained consistent compared to the previous quarter”

Ofcom’s Consumer Protection Director, Fergal Farragher, said: “It is positive to see that overall complaint volumes have remained consistent compared to the previous quarter. However, complaints are still slightly higher than they were in 2022, and this shows that providers still have work to do in improving customers’ experiences. We work alongside providers to help make sure they improve their performance and acknowledge that Vodafone is taking steps to identify and address the increased volume of complaints during this period.
