Vodafone is best known as one of the UK's biggest mobile network operators – and from the launch of its first digital mobile phone service in 1991 it has grown to operate in 26 countries and work in partnership with other networks in a further 55.

Based in Newbury in Berkshire, Vodafone launched its broadband service in 2015 and quickly established a reputation for undercutting many of its rivals on price, especially for fibre broadband.

About Vodafone broadband

Vodafone keeps its broadband service relatively simple, but that doesn't mean it's not without its share of interesting features. This is what Vodafone broadband is all about.

• Ultimate broadband guarantee – Vodafone will give you money off your bill if your speed dips below a certain level. It guarantees 25Mbps for Superfast 1 and 55Mbps for Superfast 2. Bear in mind that this doesn't guarantee the speed you'll get over wifi though, just the speed from the exchange to your router.
• Unlimited usage – As with most broadband providers, there are no download limits on Vodafone's packages.
• Vodafone broadband app – The Vodafone broadband app lets you manage functions on your Vodafone router from your phone. You can send a wifi 'boost' to a particular device, switch your wifi off and on, manage your guest wifi, control your broadband settings and more.
• Discount for pay monthly mobile customers – If you're already a Vodafone pay monthly mobile customer, you'll pay £2 a month less for Vodafone fibre broadband.

What does Vodafone offer?

So what services can you actually get from Vodafone? Here's a breakdown of exactly what the provider has to offer.

• Broadband – Unlike the majority of providers, Vodafone doesn't offer standard broadband. It has two fibre packages offering advertised average speeds of 35Mbps and 63Mbps.
• Home phone – Vodafone does have a home phone service but it's only available with its fibre broadband plans, so if it's just a landline you're after then you'd be better off elsewhere.
• Mobile – Vodafone is best known for its mobile service so it's no surprise that there's a wide range of pay monthly, pay as you go and SIM-only plans available. Vodafone stocks the latest handsets from Apple, Samsung, Huawei and the rest, as well as its own brand of budget phones.

Broadband, TV and mobile bundles

Vodafone doesn't offer a TV service, despite originally planning the launch one at around the same time as its broadband offering. The upshot is that there are no TV and broadband bundles to speak of and Vodafone mostly keeps its broadband and mobile service separate, other than a monthly broadband discount for pay monthly mobile customers.

Landline calling packages

Vodafone's home phone service is only available as part of its broadband deals, but there are still are number of packages and add-ons available so you can tailor your deal to suit your landline usage, such as voicemail plus, call management features and caller display.

• Anytime landline and mobile calls – Unlimited calls to standard UK landlines and mobiles
• Evening and weekend calls – Unlimited calls to standard UK landlines from 7pm to 7am weekdays and all day Saturday and Sunday (from midnight Friday to midnight Sunday).

What are the alternatives?

• BT – The UK's biggest broadband provider offers speeds of 10, 36, 50 and 67Mbps, usually with a BT reward card and now with the stay fast guarantee, which promises cash back if your speeds dip.
• EE Broadband – Like Vodafone, EE rewards its pay monthly mobile customers for signing up to its broadband. Not with a discount, but with extra mobile data.
• Direct Save Telecom – Direct Save lets you pay for your line rental upfront and save some money over the course of the year. Customers also have the option to join a rewards club.
