When all working fine, it's fine, and getting good speeds.
But I've experienced poor reliability with broadband connection drops happening frequently across the weeks. This was accompanied by very poor customer service in trying to resolve the issue. I spent 4 months trying to get Vodafone to diagnose and resolve frequent broadband outages. These were happening a few times a week regularly interrupting my ability to work from home. After 4 months of lengthy calls, repeatedly explaining the situation multiple times over to various staff, they closed the case citing 'Your connection issues are below the threshold of 8 drops a day so we wouldn't investigate this'. They have 'kindly' let me out of their 2 year prison contract so now I'm moving to another ISP.
If you have any broadband issues, don't expect Vodafone to sort it, no matter how many times they use "rest assured" straight out of their customer phrase book.

Overall the customer service agents are friendly and helpful, all whilst not really being able to provide any actual support. I suffered with terrible speeds well below what was originally quoted, the connection keeps dropping out for no explainable reason, the router is perhaps the most ineffective I've ever come across - and this is a widespread problem it would seem. So much so, Vodafone agreed to start letting customer use their own routers, but in order to do so you need to call and ask for a DSL Username and Password - this is official information on their website, but when I called I was passed from department to department and nobody knew what I was talking about. The only saving grace about my relationship with Vodafone Broadband is that I've had so much money back from them due to the sheer volume of calls I've had to make to get issues resolved. For instance, they sent me a new router but forgot to de-register my old router so the new one didn't work, which took about 12 hours to resolve. Then a day later they de-registered the new one and it set my house alarm off whilst I was at work, and took me another 12 hours to resolve.
I've been a Vodafone mobile customer for years and have no issues whatsoever with that, but the day my contract is up on the broadband, I'm gone.

First of all my connection date was cancelled but I wasn't informed. Connection date was re-arranged, but in total I was without broadband for a month, and I work from home which made this rather problematic. They did provide me with a mobile dongle device to keep me going, however when it came to the bill date I was billed for this (nearly £170) and I had to call up to have it removed, only for it to still come out of my bank anyway, so several more calls were needed. I then had an issue splitting my mobile account from my broadband account (mobile is personal expense, broadband is house expense) which seemed to be way more complicated than it needed to be, resulting loads more issues with billing and bills coming out of the wrong account. They did add numerous credit to my account and I have to say that everyone I spoke to was very friendly and helpful, but ultimately I shouldn't have needed to call them 9 times to sort it out.
Finally, I'm now having issues with a terrible router that keeps dropping the wifi signal and a connection speed that is WAY below my guaranteed speed and about 20mbps below the speed I know from previous experience the line is capable of - I'm actually on the phone to Vodafone as I type and their solution is for me to troubleshoot using the advice on their website OR use a wired connection, which seems like a very sensible solution for my mobile phone and tablets...

BEWARE - A few weeks ago we started experiencing intermittent service and slow speeds , so I complained and after more than an hour on the phone they agreed with my theory it wasn’t my laptop or my connection that the was the problem ! I insisted they raise the query and I never heard back . After 4 online chats and 2 calls all iniatated by ME not VF they have agreed I can cancel at no cost or fee as they cannot provide the speeds or close to it at peak times . They are not delivering on their contractual obligation - that’s all! After 4 weeks and them saying it’s a BT Opemreach problem they now say it’s been resolved as best as possible as it has to do with congestion and overcrowding on their lines. Basically they were customer greedy and are now chocking on their greed ! I’m going to write to the ombudsman’s as it’s poor service and poor sales management that have led people into signing up for something they cannot deliver on ! I have 3 mobile contracts too so it’s not like I’m trying to get it for free but I’m not paying £20 / month when I should be paying £2 as I only get 10-15% speeds at peak times . C u VF BB .

Avoid at all costs. I signed up for the £23pcm super fast 2 Broadband deal promising 55mb minimum speeds but should be getting about 70mb. Line installed by open reach engineer, he confirmed I should get about 80mb based upon distance to the cabinet (less than 100m) which has fibre to it. On the day of installation I was receiving 50mb and told that this would improve as my signal stabilised over the next couple of weeks. Return from a short break to find DL speed had dropped to 5mb, via ethernet cable and using there preferred speed tester. This is apparently due to too many users in my area and Vodafone not having enough bandwidth. Cancelled within 30 days for a full refund which I have yet to receive. Despite hub being returned and signed for by Vodafone email received today stating it hadn't been received and that I would owe them £99 if not returned in 16 days. Absolute joke of a company with horrendous customer service. Hours spent on the phone trying to sort out numerous problems to no avail. As they say, you get what you pay for. Back to VM for me!

VF have been appalling. Connected BB 2 weeks late (they blamed Openreach). Supplied a router that hadn't been properly configured. And one week after activation, fastest Wifi I can get is 7 Mbps. Would give zero stars if I could. I am exercising my cooling off rights and switching away.

Absolutely shocking customer service experience from the moment I placed my order. Engineer visit was confirmed for the wrong date twice then actually happened in the afternoon instead of the morning. Router delivery was arranged for the wrong address, on the wrong day and then incorrectly rearranged for the same address at a different time. When you phone customer services they do not make notes which are accessible to livechat. The service syncs at 45meg when on the engineers diagnostic equipment it should have been closer to 80 - vodafone support refused to call me back, then sent me a text message blaming my wifi (this is a sync speed issue), they were not interested in putting my call through to openreach and went straight for the 15% money back without doing any further investigation - still within my cooling off period, considering trying someone else.

DO NOT CHOOSE VODAFONE!They agreed they would connect broadband on 8th April 2022 still not connected! I called them numerous times just get told they will provide an update and call back and never do. No attempt at resolution just pretend to empathise but do nothing to resolve or escalate. Keep away, they are useless!

We have had constant problems with our wifi since set up. When we told them we would leave, they offered us and upgrade for free, which would involve a new fibre connection.
An engineer came to install this but they didn’t send us a new hub box so we’re left without wifi. They then told us our order had been cancelled on their end and we would have to wait three weeks for a new one. We informed them that as a family of four, with two parents working from home, we cannot go without wifi for that long. So they offered to send us a dongle in the meantime. 5 days later and we still hadn’t received the dongle so we contacted them again only to be told that there was no dongle order and our hub box order has been cancelled again!
Everytime we contacted them we had a explain the situation to a different person, each of which promised us different solutions which nothing ever came of.
They have now told us they don’t know when our wifi hub will be delivered and we need to wait 2/3 days to find out. They have also advised us to go and buy our own dongle and they will reimburse us- despite having this in writing I can’t imagine they will be quick to send us the money.
We have decided to leave Vodafone due to sheer incompetence and disorganisation.
Would definitely not recommend.

Vodafone - terrible provider! Do not waste your time.
Waiting 7 weeks so far for home broadband, rude Indian call centre staff follow the same script, sarcastic tone, unclear speech, time-wasting, putting you on hold for long periods then no resolution. Offering callbacks but no callbacks made.
At each call different excuses are given for the delays, no engineers, damaged cable on the area, full fibre not yet switched on in my area (so why tell me it is when you were selling it to me?!!!), openreach are causing the delays.
Either way Vodafone are the provider so are responsible for providing the service.
Never waited for internet connection for this length of time ever.
One for the Ombudsman and trading standards.
Utter shambles, sub standard customer service,deserve zero stars

I'm Owed £5 per day from 4th Nov to 17th Nov. £50 total for everyday you failed to reinstall my WiFi. This is now going to increase as you can't promise it will be this week. I was promised again 17th Nov was my WiFi installation day (original day was 4th Nov). Never received a time for the engineer via email so I'm currently on the phone and they said there's not enough information to do the installation tomorrow. You're now telling me it's going to be another 2 weeks for an installation. I spent an hour on the phone talking to a senior employee who promised they'd spoken to BT to do the install on 17th latest. What a lie this was.
I was also told I'm owed £80 for the cancellation and for compensation for no WiFi as me and my wife WFH but I've got to wait 30 days for this?
I then changed my address for the equipment to be delivered and you've sent it to my old address AGAIN!
I've rang vodafone again today 16th Nov to be told you've still not updated my address.
You've also now charged me a cancellation fee of £39.53 which has been taken out of my bank account despite me not cancelling my broadband both times. I've got to wait till December to get this back so another 2 weeks.
You've also lied about your coverage online in my area as it says 4G indoor and outdoor coverage but I got no signal on my phone so I've had to buy an EE sim card and router for the month just so we get Internet at our house. If you check the OfCom website it actually shows you don't get Vodafone coverage at my address so please change your website as you're misleading millions of people.
Funniest thing is, I was a Vodafone broadband customer before this circus started. All I did was move address, therefore I needed my wifi reinstalled but this is obviously too specialist for Vodafone.

I wouldn't bother joining these, obvious we get times we need to reset the router but this router just takes the living piss, the internet cuts off every time you reset it were it takes you hours to get it up and running doing daft things having to hold the reset button in whilst powering it on, I'm cancelling my service in January Vodafone will not be getting no more custom from me. Never found it so bloody difficult resetting this stupid backwards router. I'd rather go unlimited data on my SIM than there crap broadband

VF called me and offered me a deal that seemed to good to be true if I switched my broadband to them from Sky. Alas it was too good to be true! Every night, despite theoretically paying for unlimited BB my broadband either goes down all together or becomes very erratic. I paid £6.99 for a NOW TV Sports pass tonight and the connection dropped after 9pm. Pricks

Several weeks ago I was offered faster broadband on a promotion. I followed the link thinking it would be a straightforward process. Of course it wasnt. Ive spent my time talking to people I could barely understand. Made appointments that noone turns up for. Then there's excuses stating BT Openreach are too busy. In the end I gave up and told them to do what they want. They are truly, all over the place. Poor service.

I’m going to bullet point this for ease of reading:-
Moved to Vodafone
New router doesn’t work
Input manual dns server information
Internet works but devices drop constantly on and off the network
Get mobile phone bill which confirms data usage is increased as the network is unstable so my phone keeps reverting to data mode.
Speak to Vodafone who run tests and say they’ll send a new router in 3-5 days
Speak to Vodafone 8 days later - they’re out of router stock at warehouse and will have more in 2 days, please wait 3-5 days
Speak to Vodafone after 8 days - and put complaint in online; reassured of router being ordered now and will be on way.
3 days later someone from Vodafone complaints rings me in regards to my complaint. Router was never ordered by any of the three previous people who fed me lies.
Router was ordered and arrived next day
Router connection still unstable and awaiting phone call back to find out what else they can do.
Wish I’d stayed with talktalk.

once upon a time i had a really happy life til a frightening nightmare called VODAFONE broadband came to my life. trust me with this and believe me I AM NOT JOCKING, still i have nightmares about their horrible service. i am now relieved a released from this horrid company as i paid the termination fee and ended my sorrows. THIS IS FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO JOIN THIS SHAMBOLIC COMPANY. PLEASE DON'T BE FOOLED BY THEIR CHEAP PRICES AND SPECIALLY BY 5 STAR COMMENTS AND REVIEWS YOU SEE HERE. i suspect most of the 5 star reviews are from VODAFONE itself. i confess that i was fooled by these 5 star reviews and ignored the critical comments about vodafone broadband service. if you really care about your internet status and SPECIALLY YOUR INTERNET SPEED, DO NOT EVEN THINK YOU CAN GET IT FROM VODAFONE. if your work online, stream online,need fast download or even chat online, trust me signing up with VODAFONE will be your worst nightmare. if you have kids who watch on amazon, netflix or any other online streaming websites, DO NOT GO WITH VODAFONE. you will get most of the times as low as 3 mg download speed. it does not make any difference what package you have. i was on 76 mg package and i was still getting 3 mg speed. final words, a big 0 star all around to VODAFONE broadband service from customer service to INTERNET SPEED.it is the biggest scam i have seen as they charge you for something they would never give.
PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM VPDAFONE BROADBAND

I chose Vodafone because they were the cheapest provider and also as I thought they are a big well known brand they should be OK. When I first got connected there were some teething issues with the speed up and down but after maybe a week it was fine u get about 70mbit via wired, wireless is lower maybe 35-50 depending if I go from 2.4ghz to 5ghz. I wish it was a bit faster on wireless so I think I will get my own router configured as I have heard the router is the issue with wireless speeds. Can't complain really all streaming etc works without buffering.

Guaranteed broadband speed is just on paper but I've never experienced any close to guaranteed speed.
Reliability is far from minimum expectation as well.
When I talk to Vodafone they doing their own broadband speed test and saying that I'm in guaranteed speed limit when my broadband speed test shows 1/10 of guaranteed speed.

Most reviews tend to be negative, because people need somewhere to vent. I know plenty of people who've had significant problems with Vodafone so they're obviously not perfect....but nor is any other company. However - I thought I'd share my experience of switching from BT standard to Vodafone 38mbs fibre.
Frankly...it was superb. Plenty of communication about what was happening and when. They dealt with BT and all I got from BT was "This is when you're leaving and this is the date of your final bill". On the day; BT stopped....Vodafone didn't start. I phoned Vodafone customer service (based in Glasgow for Broadband) and they were excellent. Ended up needing an engineers visit the following week. So, because i'm with Vodafone on mobile; they gave me 50GB of data to use my phone as a hotspot whilst I waited for the engineer. 4G tethering meant I had excellent broadband the entire time.
Engineer arrived (Openreach) and told me the phone line had been wrongly connected at the exchange (by Openreach). Took him 20 minutes to sort it out. Broadband kicked in within the hour and it's been consistently great since. broadband speed tests show I'm getting everything promised...and all for over £10 a month less than BT standard 17mbs.
So I'm a very happy customer and happy to share the experience.

Absolutely shocking, internet keeps dropping out, the worst bit is the customer service, had the worst customer arrive ever with my phone contract and now this.

Think carefully before using this company. Yes they’re cheap, but Customer Service is overseas and unfortunately abysmal. Mostly polite, but completely ineffective even with the basics. My rating is actually ZERO stars.
My girlfriend recommended Vodafone. She has been with them a year without issue. So there are some success stories. Mine isn’t one of them.
To try to keep it simple -
5/1 Signed up online and chose an installation date and time - 21/1/19 am. Provided instructions for the BT engineer to obtain access (through next door neighbour)
8/1 Vodafone customer service telephoned to say they couldn’t honour that appointment and abruptly tried to force an inconvenient one onto me - 23/1/19 pm I refused to accept it, and said I was at work with a client and couldn’t discuss the matter at that time. She said someone would call me back.
8/1 Nobody called but I received numerous emails confirming the date I had refused.
9/1 I telephoned and rearranged the date - 24/1/19 am. I received no email confirmation but instead continued to receive emails confirming the other date.
16/1 Router arrived.
18/1 Second router arrived!
19/1 I was concerned so telephoned. I was advised not to worry and that my appointment was still arranged for 24/1. I was sent a text confirming this. I was advised to keep the second router as a spare.
24/1 Appointment date but no engineer arrived.
24/1 Email received informing me that broadband couldn’t be activated and I would receive a call.
26/1 Call received from Vodafone. Apparently the engineer couldn’t gain access. They had not been advised to go to my next door neighbour, nor had been provided with my accurate telephone number. Date rescheduled for 6/2/19 am. I reiterated the access instructions and confirmed my neighbours address. I received a text confirming the revised date.
By now I’m feeling absolutely exasperated but allow them one final chance.
6/2 NO ENGINEER!! I telephoned to be informed there was no record of the 6th and installation was actually down to be the 11th! I mentioned that I had on my phone a text from Vodafone clearly stating the 6th. Customer Services said they had absolutely no record of this.
AT THAT POINT I GAVE UP and cancelled on the spot. They politely accepted my cancellation. No efforts to apologise or explain their total incompetence.
I am now the proud owner of two useless Vodafone routers and wondering if I might still actually receive a visit from an engineer on the 11th. Really wouldn’t surprise me.
I just wonder how it’s possible to mess up so badly, and then actually (politely) imply each time that it’s the customer’s fault? By the way, Vodafone DON’T pay compensation for missed appointments.

So it took us well over a month before our broadband was connected; i mentioned straight away we had no dial tone but they continued to run all their checks before requesting a bt engineer. On the plus side, being an existing vodaphone customer, they bumped up my mobile data to keep us going. Once we were finally up and running, the internet continuously drops out and we’ve had to have another engineer come back when it failed to come back on, so not a big score on reliability.

I have given Vodafone 1 star in each category as there was no option for 0 stars. Signed up with a guarantee of 50mb download on their 74mb package. On running regular speed tests i was getting less than 20. Complained and got no help. Broadband lost connection once every few days, the time that drew the last straw was a 24 hour loss of service where, after over an hour on the phone with an advisory, was told nobody could help me for another 48 hours. Cancelled within the first 30 days, told that they were still going to charge me, despite them not actually offering me what I paid for. Customer service and their online chat are useless, not to mention inaccurate - with an 11pm helpline that doesn't take calls after 9pm!

Without doubt the worst broadband I've ever used. We initially signed up to Vodafone's Superfast 1 plan around 3 years ago - all well and good until about 6 months into the contract we started experiencing regular speed issues - we put this down to 3 people in our household sharing the one router so when we were offered an upgrade to Vodafone's Superfast 2 (claiming to be the fastest average speeds of any non fibre optic WiFi in the country) we thought great let's try that.
18 months into the contract and we've never had speeds above 26 mbp/s (and we're very lucky if we get that) despite the fact their MINIMUM guarantee was 34mbp/s for our property. The customer service is appalling, they never respond to your complaints submitted online (submitted four of them) which is your only real option given they don't have a dedicated number to ring for broadband complaints, if you want to chat to an advisor on their chat service they run a quick diagnostics then ask you to start to take apart your master socket to check the issue. Sorry? I have things to be doing with my day, not messing around with my master socket to attach different connections only for you to eventually tell me you'll send out an engineer as you should have done all along.
Sent out 3 engineers, all boosted the line and explained the speeds to the router were okay, any persistent problems are certainly due to an issue with Vodafone - would Vodafone accept that? Nope, another engineer out to look at the master socket AGAIN only to be told the same thing again. You can cancel your contract if they can't provide the speeds they guarantee but seeing as they refuse to accept responsibility or provide a new router it's almost impossible to actually cancel it.
We get dropouts on an almost daily basis (tallied them up for our complaint, one day we suffered 24 signal dropouts between 9am and 4pm). Working from home has been nigh on impossible, I've been kicked out of countless work calls/meetings due to signal dropout, then when it boots back up the signal is horrendous so completely useless. Outside of the lockdowns, I've spent every day working from home in my local Costa Coffee to get some reliable WiFi.
There's been no discount for the troubles despite Vodafone's "discount promise" if your speeds aren't up to scratch which I mention to them every time I complain.
Moving house this month and was absolutely DELIGHTED to find out Vodafone could not provide our Wifi due to Openreach contractual agreements for New-Build properties - thank god, just a garbage product, terrible connectivity, terrible customer service and nowhere near as reliable or fast as other, cheaper, smaller broadband providers. Utter *****.

I have been with Vodafone broadband for over 12 months now and feel that is a long enough time to have formed a reliable opinion.
Joining was smooth and the service was up and running without any issues on the morning of the switch over date. Monthly payment was £20 and hasn’t increased in the twelve months since.
Two issues worth mentioning. Around last October my connection kept dropping out for no apparent reason. This was happening quite frequently. Before telephoning, I decided to Google it for a possible solution. The first answer I found suggested changing Wifi channels and explained how to simply do this. I followed the instructions and it now works a treat - no dropping out whatsoever.
The second issue involved my fibre broadband speed. Long story but my speed was low so I telephoned. Customer Service answered quickly and talked me through what checks to try. No improvement, so the operative said she would monitor the line and call me back in 3 days. I held out little hope but she called back as promised and arranged for a Bt outreach engineer to attend my property two days later. He turned up on time, replaced some old, unsuitable wiring on the outside of my house and my speeds have increased from 13 to 35 mbps, with no reduction in the evenings, which some customers have complained of.
I really can’t criticise Vodafone broadband whatsoever and my experience is five stars all round.

Then we tried to organise a home move. OMG. Left for 3 weeks with no internet. Lost our precious home phone number and ended up cancelling contract.
Customer services were awful. Spent around 10 hrs trying to resolve the issue. Could not get speaking to anyone who could actually help me.

Have had the broadband a couple of years now just recently I started getting logged out had to log back in all the time I ring customer service usually around 30 to 40 mins listening to horrible music then they run tests and say we gonna try a few things same things all the time then they say turn off router for 15 mins they done that 4 times now still no call backs. Then I have to call them go through same process
Complete waste of space save your money go with someone else !,,

DO NOT USE VODAPHONE!!! It's been a month and still no home broadband set up, spent hours to Indian, Egyptian and Polish call centres, all staff useless,can't speak English clearly,say they will call back and resolve issue but nothing happens. Openreach arranged 3 visits, never turned up. Both companies blame each other for the issues.
Absolutely disgusting customer service.
