How to save at Vodafone
Vodafone offers a range of premium services, but there are several strategic ways to lower your monthly commitment and get more value out of your mobile or broadband contract.
- Check VeryMe Rewards weekly. The VeryMe loyalty programme is built into the My Vodafone app and is one of the best ways to get "money back" via perks. It frequently features free Costa coffee, 2-for-1 meals through Kids Pass or Gourmet Society, and significant discounts at high-street retailers.
- Bundle with Vodafone Together. If you have both Vodafone broadband and a monthly mobile plan, you qualify for "Vodafone Together" benefits. This typically includes a monthly discount on your broadband bill (around £3–£4) and exclusive family discounts on additional SIM-only lines, potentially saving a household hundreds of pounds a year.
- Trade in with Vodafone Xchange. Vodafone’s trade-in tool allows you to get a guaranteed value for your old phone, which can be used to lower the monthly cost of a new handset. With Vodafone Xchange, you can often upgrade to the latest model a year early without paying early termination fees on your device plan.
- Opt for refurbished "Pristine" handsets. You can save significantly by choosing a refurbished phone over a brand-new one. Vodafone categorises these by condition; "Pristine" devices look and feel like new but come with a much lower monthly price tag and the same 12-month warranty.
- NHS and Student discounts. Vodafone offers a generous discount programme for key workers and students. NHS employees can get up to 25% off selected airtime plans, while students are often eligible for 10% off monthly handset and SIM-only contracts.
- Social tariffs for broadband. If you are receiving Universal Credit or other specific benefits, look for Vodafone Essentials Broadband. It provides a reliable fibre connection at a significantly reduced fixed price with no activation fees and the freedom to leave at any time without a penalty.
About Vodafone
Vodafone is a cornerstone of the UK telecommunications industry, having made the country’s first-ever mobile phone call in 1985. As a leading 5G provider, Vodafone focuses on "reliable connectivity," offering extensive mobile coverage and high-speed full-fibre broadband. Following its recent integration with Three UK, the brand has further expanded its network capacity, making it a top choice for users who prioritise network stability and a wide range of premium entertainment add-ons like YouTube Premium or Amazon Prime.
