FEEL FREE THIS SUMMER WITH INCLUSIVE ROAMING ON VODAFONE’S PAY AS YOU GO BIG VALUE BUNDLES

  • Vodafone Pay as you go customers can now stream and share their holiday moments worry-free thanks to inclusive roaming across 40 destinations*- that’s more than any other UK mobile provider.
  • Throughout July and August, Pay as you go customers will receive, 100 minutes, 100 texts and 500MB of data to use whilst roaming within Vodafone’s inclusive roaming zone.
  • Vodafone’s £20 and £30 Big Value Bundles now give customers double data in the UK as well.

Today Vodafone UK is marking the start of summer with the launch of inclusive roaming on its Pay as you go Big Value Bundles. Whether lounging in Lisbon or chilling out in Oslo, customers can now make the most of their smartphone on holiday, thanks to a generous inclusive roaming allowance which can be used across 40 European destinations.

Vodafone’s inclusive roaming covers more destinations than any other network. And with 4G in 34 destinations, customers are now free to share their holiday moments with a plan that keeps up with them. Throughout July and August, customers will receive 100 minutes, 100 texts and 500MB of data to use anywhere in our inclusive destinations. So wherever they’re heading, they can always be connected to the things that matter most.

Combined with our latest 4G smartphone, the Vodafone Smart ultra 7 which is available for only £135 on Pay as you go, it’s a great deal offering the latest tech with plenty of data. Fully equipped with a quick shot 13MP rear-facing camera and 5MP front-facing ‘selfie cam’ with flash, as well as a sharp 5.5inch full HD display, the Vodafone Smart ultra 7 delivers a stylish finish with a first rate performance at an unbelievable price.

Glafkos Persianis, Vodafone UK Commercial Director, said “We are pleased to offer customers such great value for money on our Pay as you go Big Value Bundles. It’s important for us to allow customers to feel free to enjoy their smartphones on holiday worry-free with inclusive roaming, so they can share their holiday moments with the people they love the most, wherever they are.”

This offer follows a recent increase in Big Value Bundle UK data allowances, giving customers the freedom to enjoy more of what they love for less, with double the data on selected Big Value Bundles.* Meaning that Vodafone customers can take advantage of our network in the UK as well as our inclusive roaming destinations this summer.
