Does Vodafone have good customer service?

According to Ofcom’s July 2024 report, Vodafone received 16 complaints per 100,000 customers, placing it towards the bottom of the table in relation to customer service.

What speeds does Vodafone offer?

A broadband speed of at least 25Mbps is recommended to work and stream without issue. With Vodafone’s fibre optic broadband, you can enjoy speeds of 38Mbps, 67Mbps, 150Mbps, 500Mbps and even 910Mbps.

Vodafone’s Full Fibre plans are perfect for larger households where everyone regularly streams in ultra high-definition or enjoys multiplayer online gaming.

However, speeds will differ based on where you live and the connection that’s available. For example, Vodafone’s full fibre offerings (150Mbps, 500Mbps and 910Mbps) are only available in places within either Cityfibre or Openreach’s full fibre networks.

Full fibre (FTTP) broadband is also faster than FTTC as it connects directly to your home, but this might not be available in your area. In this case, you’ll have to go with FTTC until connections are available where you live.

Vodafone broadband and phone deals

Vodafone includes a pay-as-you-go phone line with all its standard broadband packages but further packages let you add TV and mobile.

Vodafone Xtra

Add Vodafone Xtra to your broadband and enjoy a 24-month subscription to Apple TV+, worth nearly £216

Mobile Together

A mobile and broadband bundle where you can enjoy discounts. Save up to £3 a month on your broadband plan when you have a Pay Monthly plan. Get 30% off additional Pay Monthly plans when you have broadband and mobile.

How long does it take to set up Vodafone broadband?

Vodafone broadband is easy to set up yourself. Once you receive your router, you just have to plug it in and connect your devices.

If, however, your property has never had Openreach fibre internet connected before, an engineer will need to install the broadband connection for you. The same applies if you’re switching from a different network. The installation takes up to 4 hours and you don’t have to pay an installation fee.

Vodafone antivirus

Vodafone provides 12 months of free Norton 360 Antivirus protection to all Vodafone Pro II customers. The software - designed to prevent your devices from being infected with malware - can protect up to 10 of your devices.
