Vodafone has excellent coverage around the major cities, however service is patchy in some of the rural areas I've visited recently such as the Scottish Borders and some regions of the West Country. However when you have service it is very clear and I would have no complaints.
Vodafone is one of the more expensive UK networks, I also use Bt Cellnet's Genie Mobile which is much cheaper but the features and extra service provided my Vodafone are excellent, especially the very cheap calls between vodafone mobiles.
Topping up with a top-up card is a breeze and topping up with credit cards is very secure. However the costs for an occassional user are over the top, but for regular users I would not grumble about how much I pay.
There are a wide variety of both contract and pre-pay tarriffs - and for regular users there is bound to be one to suit.
The occassional user would be better off sticking to another network though - I highly reccommend Bt Cellnet and orange.
How helpful would this review be to a person making a buying decision? Rating guidelines
While Vodaphone does offer great coverage, its providers (Singlepoint,etc) are the biggest cowboys around. A little bit more information about the company, the tarriffs, etc and I will gladly come back and perhaps increase my rating.
Let me know. Andy
