BlackBerry Storm on Vodafone UK

I have now had the Storm since it came out last year, on the day it came out. Only recently has it started to play up, in the form of it won’t charge! Trying different chargers, and the usb cable on different machines it only seems to charge at work and only weirdly through the DELL 24inch screen USB. So at first I assumed it was the battery and being onĀ  a Vodafone business contract I contacted customer services, who happily said they would send a replacement battery out. This was on Wednesday two weeks ago, just as I returned from Jamaica. They said it would be sent out the next day, however having to be without a phone for 4 days is simply not good enough, so I decided to contact Vodafone again on Monday last week (6th July) and they said they were out of stock. Now had they told me this I would of gladly asked for an exchange on the phone.
