Vodafone roaming - Changes to products and services



Vodafone is making some changes to its Roaming products, so it’s even easier and more cost-effective for you to communicate while abroad.
         
It’s all part of Vodafones drive to help their customers become a successful Ready Business in today’s competitive global economy. From 30 April 2016, Vodafone will be reducing the price of many of their roaming services, in line with new EU roaming regulations. 

They will be giving their clients 30 days’ notice so they can familiarise themselves with these changes.
