Your masts look OK via the status-checker and you've tried a sim swap and it's happening with other phone's when you insert your sim card into them then as this is happening in all areas you visit this is either Not-Spots, fringe coverage or mast congestion or your account at issue in my opinion.
Live Chat or the Vodafone Social Media Teams via Contact-us-for-account-specific-queries can check your account. I'd suggest to use Twitter and link back to your thread here including your forum username so your not having to repeat yourself.

I've contacted the live chat around 10 times they did basic steps everytime wasted around 30minutes then sent to a special which had no answers and just followed a guide to what reset on my phone its useless

Ok @Leskis
I personally think this could be mast congestion but that does not show on the Service Checker.
I appreciate your frustrated with this situation and so would I be.
What i also see is that speeds recover just as quick.
I can only but suggest to persevere with customer services.
You can raise a complaint too.
I wish you all the best with this situation.

In live chat none of the people have any knowledge they just waste time by doing basic steps all the time

Issues like yours @Leskis are not always easy to resolve and usually involve lot's of trial and error with troubleshooting so they'll want to exhaust all these steps before I assume taking it to the next levels.
