Vodafone's home broadband service opens to all
After a three-year hiatus, Vodafone returned to the home broadband game this summer, starting out with a limited service available in just a few counties. A few months later, it expanded the launch to everywhere its underground infrastructure (licenced and owned) covered, but only offered the "Connect" broadband service to existing Vodafone mobile customers. Today, the company announced it's now available to everyone, not just those it has on its books already. Assuming Vodafone Connect is available in your area, you can get up to 17 Mbps ADSL for a tenner a month, up to 38 Mbps fibre for twice that, or up to 76 Mbps fibre for £25 per month.
Vodafone to make its return to broadband 'in the coming weeks'
With BT snapping up EE and Three UK's owner buying O2, Vodafone must be feeling a little left out of the industry shake-up that's currently underway. But Vodafone's got more important things to focus on in the immediate future, namely its return to being a broadband provider. In its year-end earnings released today, Vodafone mentioned its new fibre broadband service is set to launch "in the coming weeks," a little over three years since its unsuccessful "Vodafone at Home" offerings were scrapped. The company announced last year it was preparing to give broadband another crack, penning a spring 2015 launch window its more or less on track to meet (the intrigued can register their interest for "Vodafone Connect" here). What's more, Vodafone's also confirmed today it'll follow broadband with the launch of a TV service later this year.
