I have managed to pick up a cheap pre modded b818 but it has Vodafone branding on it if I flash generic firmware to it would it debrand it or am I likely to brick it?

Haven't heard of anyone successfully messing with these Huawei, who knows.
Why do you want to do this?

If it has a USB port, then there is a possibility by shorting the boot process and setting the device into debug mode, where you could flash a non-branded firmware.

However, unlike the B618, the B818 is very temperamental and you could brick it. I went down a rabbit hole with this one :)

Just leave it alone and enjoy.
