Vodafone Surprises and Its Customers Appreciate It: Very Easy, Starting Today

Vodafone warns users about the best way to avoid the dreaded commitment period

Vodafone is known for imposing a commitment to stay. It applies to customers who acquire a new mobile phone or contract one of their combined fiber and mobile rates. Although it also affects those with fiber only.

However, now, the company has decided to make an exception that could benefit some users. It allows them to leave the company without having to pay a penalty.

Vodafone's Commitment to Stay

When a customer decides to contract a rate with Vodafone that includes a combined fiber and mobile or fiber offer, they are subject to a commitment to stay. It generally lasts 12 months. This means that the customer can't leave the company during that time without facing a penalty.

If the user decides to terminate their contract before the stay period is up, a penalty will apply. It is calculated proportionally to the time remaining until the end of the contract. This penalty can reach up to 150 euros, depending on how many months remain to be fulfilled.

However, Vodafone has decided to introduce an exception that benefits some users. It mainly affects those who opt for self-installable fiber.

This installation mode is especially interesting. Instead of requiring a technician's visit, the customer can perform the service installation on their own. This way, one of the most common factors that generate the stay is eliminated: the need for a technical installation process.

If we already had Vodafone fiber previously at home, the already installed infrastructure can be used. In these cases, the company will send a self-installable router, with no additional shipping costs and no commitment to stay. It is important to note that the operator itself will be responsible for evaluating if the installation is possible without a technician's intervention.

How to Benefit from This New Vodafone Option

To take advantage of this benefit, it is necessary that during the contracting, the operator itself evaluates the conditions. Specifically if any technical intervention is necessary. If a technician is not needed at home and the previous infrastructure can be used, Vodafone will provide the self-installable router.

It is important to note that, although this option facilitates the installation of fiber without a stay, if one decides to contract an offer that does involve a technical installation, the usual one-year commitment to stay will remain in effect.
