Pleased to confirm that the issue of irritating incessant Configuration Messages when using rSAP is now fixed on Vodafone!
The process to follow is:
1) Call 191 and speak to Customer Services.
2) Select the menu option for Technical Support, possibly labelled as "Problems using your phone".
3) Explain to the operator that you need to be put through to Level 3 support to make a change on their "VDC" system.
4) You might need to be put to Level 2 Support first, so you may need to repeat the request.
5) Eventually, you will be in touch with Level 3 Support. Instruct them to set your phone number on their "VDC Blacklist" which is a list of phones that should not be sent the Configuration Messages.
6) The Vodafone system will still register that you have (virtual) change of phone every time you use rSAP in your car, but the blacklist on your number will then block all Configuration Messages from being sent to your phone.
This block will not stop normal Vodafone text messages such as Vodafone Call Catcher or general customer service text messages.
It has been a very pleasant few days without the dozens of daily Vodafone Configuration Messages that clog up my system, so I have chosen to remain with Vodafone. Good service deserves to be rewarded with good customer loyalty - just wish it did not require the process of leaving Vodafone before somebody chose to address it in two days, when being told for the last four months that it was not possible to address at all!
My thanks to all at Vodafone who made this possible.
