Mobile operator and broadband ISP Vodafone<\/a> UK has today responded to pressure from Ofcom<\/a> by announcing the launch of their own social broadband tariff for those on benefits (Universal Credit etc.) – called ‘Essentials Broadband<\/em><\/a>‘, which is one of the cheapest social tariffs on the market at \u00a312 per month.<\/p>\n

The move comes after Vodafone<\/a> recently became one of several ISPs singled out by the UK telecoms regulator for not having introduced such a plan (here<\/a>). Ofcom<\/a> called on the operator to “introduce a broadband social tariff as soon as possible<\/em>.” Until they do, the regulator said they would “expect these firms to waive early termination charges for any customer who wishes to switch to another provider\u2019s social tariff<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> The social tariff is available to customers covered by both their Openreach<\/a> and Cityfibre<\/a> based fibre networks.<\/div>\n

Suffice to say, Vodafone<\/a> was quick to respond. The new Essentials Broadband<\/a><\/strong> plan costs just \u00a312 per month and is available to those on Job Seekers Allowance, Universal Credit, Employment and Support Allowance, Disability Allowance or Personal Independence Payment. The price of \u00a312 is roughly half what they normally charge for their equivalent commercial packages on discount (usually around \u00a322 per month).<\/p>\n

Customers can join without a set-up fee, leave for free at any time, and won\u2019t be subject to in-contract price changes. The plan gives access to Vodafone\u2019s Fibre 1 or Full Fibre 1 Essentials Broadband plan (FTTC<\/a> and FTTP<\/a>) for 12 months, providing average download speeds of 38Mbps. A router is also included, although it’s their older model.<\/p>\n

“After 12 months we will validate if customers still qualify for Vodafone Essentials broadband and recontract. If not, customers can choose one of our standard broadband plans or leave without charge<\/em>,” says the small print.<\/p>\n

Ahmed Essam, CEO of Vodafone UK, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The rising cost of living is putting a million families at risk of falling on the wrong side of the digital divide. We must not allow this to happen. So as part of our everyone.connected programme, today we are launching Vodafone Essentials Broadband at just \u00a312 a month, the cheapest on the market, and 12 months free broadband for small businesses. Vodafone is the only network provider to offer social tariffs across fixed and mobile, meaning eligible customers can access mobile and broadband connectivity for 72 pence a day\u201d.<\/p>\n

These new tariffs complement VOXI<\/a> for Now and the 750,000 free SIMS we\u2019ve donated so far as part of our everyone.connected programme. We\u2019re on track to meet our commitment to donate a million connections by the end of this year and will continue to put the cause at the heart of our business until the problem no longer exists.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In addition to this, for small business owners, Vodafone will also offer “free broadband for a year<\/em>” on their similar business broadband (domestic grade) packages to help mitigate rising costs and help firms stay connected to customers (they’ve done an offer like this before, but it’s always welcome).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
