Vodafone has launched its fastest-ever broadband by offering customers full fibre speeds of up to 2.2Gbps*. This means it now offers the fastest speeds in more locations across the UK than any other major provider.
Part of a complete refresh of its Pro II Broadband portfolio, the new plan, up to 60x faster than its standard broadband, gives customers access to Vodafone’s fastest speeds up to 1.6Gbps, 1.8Gbps or 2.2Gbps based on their location. The plan, available exclusively to new customers, unlocks the true capability of Vodafone Pro II Broadband. Pro II is the only package that offers the latest WiFi 6E standard throughout the home.
Pro II packages connect over 150 devices through Vodafone’s Ultra Hub router and come with wall-to-wall Super WiFi 6E Boosters and automatic 4G broadband backup, so users don’t lose connectivity when they need it most. Plans are available for £70 a month.
Rob Winterschladen, Consumer Director, Vodafone UK, comments: “As ‘The Nation’s Network’, we’re committed to delivering the best and most reliable home connectivity experience. We are challenging the market by offering unbeatable products and services at great value. Not only are we the UK’s biggest Full Fibre provider with a market-leading offering in Pro II inclusive of Secure Net Home, our best-ever security and family controls, we also now offer faster speeds to more homes than any other major provider. Combined, this makes for a really exciting time to switch to Vodafone and get the ultimate, hassle-free broadband for busy families – all at a great price”.
The 8 July 2024 marks the first customer connected by Vodafone to its 2.2Gbps plan. The customer is also the first to be powered by CityFibre’s new rural network, rolled out to support the government’s ‘Project Gigabit’ programme to enable hard-to-reach communities to access lightning-fast gigabit-capable broadband.
Josh Newman, from Grantchester, Cambridgeshire, said: “I’m a filmmaker and a film lecturer, so I deal with quite large files. But my upload speed at the moment tops out at 18Mbps. It just means that uploading cuts, uploading rushes, takes a long time. And it really throttles the internet for everyone in the house and there’s four of us. My wife is working for the NHS, doing a lot of video conferences, dealing with research in public health. So, her internet connection is vital for what she does. My children obviously are using the Internet for entertainment and also for schoolwork. So, we’re a fairly high-usage family. It will be really significant for us to have faster internet. I’m looking forward to the benefits it will bring us”.
The launch of Vodafone’s fastest-ever broadband follows the recent introduction of Secure Net Home to Pro II, hassle-free security and advanced parental controls on over 150 connected devices in the home to keep your family safe online.
