VODAFONE 4G NOW AVAILABLE IN MORE DESTINATIONS ACROSS THE WORLD

Vodafone UK has added Albania, Azerbaijan, Cambodia, Jordan and Mauritius to the destinations in which its customers are able to use 4G.  This means that Vodafone customers can now use 4G in 63 destinations across the world, more than any other UK mobile provider, meaning faster access to data whilst travelling abroad.

That’s not all, customers can also opt into Vodafone EuroTraveller or Vodafone WorldTraveller – whether on 4G or not – in more than 70 destinations across the world.

A customer can take their UK minutes, texts and data with them from just £3 extra a day.   This means anyone on a Vodafone Red bundle – which includes unlimited calls and texts – can call or text home without worrying about unexpected bills. In addition, data usage costs the same abroad as it does at home.  There’s no charge to receive calls or texts and customers only pay for the days they use their device overseas.

Vodafone EuroTraveller and WorldTraveller are both available on mobile broadband – great news for those wanting to take their tablet with them.
