VHA appoints Customer Operations Director
Statement from VHA
After three years as VHA Director of Customer Care, Errol Van Graan is moving to a new role. Details of his role will be confirmed in coming weeks.
Errol has made significant and important contributions to the business in the director role, including leading the program to drive a reduction in customer complaints. Since 2014, Vodafone’s customer complaints rate has declined 77 per cent, and is around half that of the industry average.
From 24 January 2018, Ana Bordeianu will be joining VHA as Customer Operations Director, reporting to Chief Executive Officer Iñaki Berroeta.
At VHA, we are always working hard to provide our customers with the best possible experience every time they use our network and contact us.
We are pleased to see our customers are increasingly happy with Vodafone, with recent UBS data showing our Net Promoter Score (NPS) is more than double that of our competitors.
In 2018, we plan to deliver even more for our customers in everything we do – from our network, to our customer service delivery, and value-packed products.
