Why 5G GigaCube?

Speed

GigaCube offers 5G and 4G speeds using Vodafone's mobile network, which reaches 99% of people in the UK. Even if you don't have a 5G-ready device, you can use GigaCube to enjoy the next-level speeds of our 5G network over WiFi.

Portability

GigaCube works wherever there's 5G or 4G signal – just plug in and enjoy great WiFi.

Plug and play

It's really quick and easy to set up a WiFi connection with GigaCube – and you can connect up to 64 devices.

Flexible plans

Choose a 24-month or 30-day rolling contract, depending on your needs. Data allowances range from 100GB to unlimited data a month.

Please note: the 5G-ready GigaCube will work on your 4G network until 5G coverage is available in your area.

FAQs

Mobile WiFi is delivered through mobile WiFi devices like the Vodafone GigaCube. Compact and flexible, it generates a Mobile Hotspot from a portable router that allows multiple users to connect to the internet through a mobile network, instead of being connected to wall-fixed internet. Devices like this are ideal for connecting your laptop or tablet on the move – wherever you can get a mobile signal.

GigaCube uses our 5G and 4G networks to provide you with WiFi wherever you have a 5G or 4G connection – but no fixed WiFi. As a portable WiFi router for business, it’s quick and easy to set up. Simply unbox, plug in, and you'll be ready to connect up to 64 devices in minutes.

GigaCube works wherever Vodafone’s 5G or 4G mobile networks are available, meaning it reaches 99% of people in the UK. All you need is a power source and a plug, and you can keep your employees connected whether they’re working from multiple devices, or out of the office.

GigaCube now runs on our new 5G network, with speeds of up to 1Gbps, providing an uninterrupted connection. We’ll check if 5G is available where you are before you buy – if not, you can still get GigaCube on our 4G network.

Please keep in mind that the speeds achieved while using your GigaCube are subject to network coverage and capacity where you are.

Our legal terms

Download the full GigaCube terms [PDF: 177KB]

These Vodafone Gigacube terms are in addition to the terms set out in your Pay Monthly airtime agreement (airtime agreement).

Eligibility

Vodafone Gigacube is made up of Gigacube equipment (equipment), a Gigacube plan, which is a Mobile Broadband plan with a minimum commitment period of either a 30-day monthly rolling contract or 24-month contract (plan). You must purchase both the equipment and the plan directly from Vodafone in order for both features to work correctly.

The Plan uses the Vodafone mobile network (Vodafone network), either 4G or 5G depending on network coverage, signal and location.

The Equipment will either be charged to you at an upfront cost or, if you have signed up to an 24-month plan, spread in equal instalments over your minimum commitment period. You can't use your own equipment with a plan.

Data

Your plan will include a data allowance which will either be an amount, such as 100GB, or for some plans, unlimited data. Any data used outside of this allowance will be charged at the rates set out in your Mobile Broadband charges guide. The actual speeds you experience will continually vary depending on many factors such as de-prioritisation, network congestion, device capabilities, location and network coverage.

If you're an existing Vodafone Pay Monthly mobile customer, you can check your data allowance at any time in the My Vodafone app

If you're not an existing Vodafone Pay Monthly mobile customer, you can check your data allowance in your My Vodafone account. You can also log into My Account Controls to set up a preferred contact number (even if this is not a Vodafone number), so you'll automatically be notified by text if your GigaCube is almost out of data, and can opt in to purchase additional data or extras if you choose.

To ensure that you don’t experience any unexpected bills, there's a data cap automatically put in place once you reach your data allowance limit for all plans that do not have unlimited data. You can check the status of this in My Vodafone or the My Vodafone app. If you reach the data cap, and have run out of data, then you can opt to purchase a one-time data extra. You can also do this in My Vodafone or the My Vodafone app.

Availability

The Vodafone Gigacube is available to customers within the UK for personal use, at an approved service address (approved address). An adviser is required to confirm that your home address is eligible to connect to the plan, based on indoor coverage being available in your area. The equipment and plan is only for use at your approved address.

The data allowance on your plan can only be used within the United Kingdom. Please refer to your device manual for the product specifications and restrictions.

The equipment and plan are only for your personal and non-commercial use. The service is not for you if you plan to do any of the activities as set out in our Acceptable Usage Policy. The Vodafone SIM included in the GigaCube is intended for exclusive use with the GigaCube so please don't use it in any other device as you'll be charged accordingly.

International roaming

The equipment and your plan aren't eligible for international roaming, and any data can only be used in the UK, on the Vodafone network, and at your approved address.

Factors affecting speed

The speeds achieved while using the GigaCube are subject to network coverage and capacity. Speeds may vary significantly. Your plan may also be subject to data de-prioritisation. This means that some data traffic will receive less priority over other traffic on the Vodafone network. During peak periods or congestion, we may manage the network by de-prioritising the internet traffic of certain data users. This could mean that during periods of congestion Gigacube speeds may be different to the speeds experienced using our other services supplied over the Vodafone network.

Your agreement with us

Your agreement is with Vodafone Limited, registered in England under number 1471587 at Vodafone House, The Connection, Newbury, Berkshire, RG14 2FN.

It’s made up of these Terms and Charges Guide which cover the SIM card and any services you use in your plan.

It doesn’t cover any equipment. However, see 'equipment subsidy' section. We’ll send these to you by post or email. We also encourage you to take a look at our Returns, Privacy, Acceptable Use and Mobile Broadband Traffic Management Policies, which also make up your 'Agreement' with us. You can find these documents at www.vodafone.co.uk/terms

Joining us and charges

The basics: When you join us, we’ll agree certain things with you and set them out in your order form or welcome letter or email. These documents will include important information like:

  1. How long we’ll provide our services to you and the minimum period you have agreed to stay with us

  2. Your chosen services and how much these will cost you every month

  3. Additional services you have chosen as part of your plan, when they start and end and when you’ll be charged for these

  4. Any upfront charges you’ve paid or may have to pay for your equipment

Charging: Your Charges Guide sets out current pricing information about out-of-plan charges (if applicable) as well as charges for additional services which are not included in your monthly plan charge. All these charges will be added to your bill as and when you use the services.

Payment: You’ll need to pay for all charges within seven days of the date of your bill. We ask that you pay by direct debit – if you wish to pay by other means, please contact us. Where VAT applies, it will be included in the charges. If you pay late, we’ll charge interest of 2% above the base rate of Barclays Bank each year and you’ll also need to pay a reasonable charge to compensate us for the administration costs incurred (see your Charges Guide).

During your agreement with us

Using the services: You’re responsible for other people that use your equipment and services which are only for your personal non-commercial use. We own the SIM number and the SIM card which we can change at any time and you may only use equipment that is approved for use on our network. For more information on using our services and restrictions please see our Acceptable Use Policy.

Changes to your terms, services or charges

We may change the Agreement, our services, or charges at any time. We’ll tell you beforehand unless it relates to additional services or out of bundle services you don’t use regularly. The charges may change as follows:

Plan charge:

  • If you joined or upgraded before 9 December 2020:

     

    Each April your monthly plan charge will increase by an amount equal to the Retail Price Index (RPI) rate published by the Office for National Statistics in March. We will apply that RPI rate adjustment from your April bill. If the RPI rate is a decrease, your monthly plan charge will not be reduced.

  • If you join or upgrade from 9 December 2020:

     

    Each April your monthly plan charge will increase by an amount equal to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rate published by the Office for National Statistics in January plus an additional 3.9% on top. We'll apply that CPI rate plus 3.9% adjustment from your April bill. In the event that the CPI rate is negative, this will be ignored but the additional 3.9% will still apply.

Out of plan services: We may increase charges for out of plan services at any time.

Additional services: Charges for additional services may change from time to time and may be outside of Vodafone’s control so you can check our website for the latest prices.

If we change your plan charge, out of plan charges, our services or the Agreement you may have a right to end the Agreement without paying a termination charge (although you’ll need to pay for your equipment subsidy). Please see 'Leaving Us' section for more information.

Problems with our services

We’ll provide our services with reasonable skill and care. However, our services are not fault-free and are not available everywhere in the UK. Please check the predicted coverage in your area using our coverage checker.

There are a number of reasons why you may find problems with the services and these include moving home or work, weather conditions, damage to our network, the number of people using the network at the same time and so on. Please contact us if you experience a service issue and we’ll attempt to fix it.

If we have to interrupt our services for maintenance or we cause a technical fault on our network, you may be entitled to a partial credit of your plan charge based on the number of days you are without our services. If you’re experiencing a materially degraded service for an unreasonable period of time, please read our 'Leaving Us' section. We’ll not be responsible for any loss of service due to something outside our reasonable control.

To receive a partial credit of your charges or terminate the Agreement, you must report to us a severe disruption which we'll assess against your typical usage history. We may offer you alternative equipment to address service quality.

Lost or stolen equipment

If your SIM card is lost or stolen, you must tell us as soon as possible so we can suspend our services and stop someone else using it. Your maximum liability for charges depends on when you notify us:

  • Within 24 hours – £100 maximum

  • 24 hours to 5 days – £500 maximum

  • More than 5 days – all charges until you report to us

You’ll also continue to pay all the remaining plan charges for our services for the minimum period, even if your SIM card or equipment is lost or stolen.

Leaving us or suspending the services

Cancelling, returns and faulty equipment: Please read our returns policy for details on how to do this. It also sets out what to do if your equipment is faulty and how you can return your equipment or get your equipment fixed or replaced.

If you want to end the Agreement

Because you simply want to leave us: If you’re outside of your minimum period, you can cancel at any time but you’ll need to give us 30 days’ notice. If you're within your minimum period, you’ll need to pay a termination fee. Your Charges Guide gives you a calculation to work out how much this will be.

Because of the quality of our services: If the service is materially degraded for an unreasonable period of time you may be able to leave the Agreement early without paying a termination charge (although you’ll need to pay for your equipment subsidy). Contact us to discuss your options.

Because of changes: You have a right to leave the Agreement early without paying a termination fee (although you’ll need to pay for your equipment subsidy) if we:

  • Increase your monthly plan charge more than once per year or by more than the RPI rate or CPI rate plus 3.9% (depending when you joined or upgraded – see section 'During your agreement with us'

  • Increase your out of plan charges or change our services or the Agreement to your material detriment.

We’ll let you know if this is the case and what to do before the changes are made. If you take no action within 30 days of us telling you about the changes you’ll be considered to have accepted those changes.

Equipment subsidy: All the information required to calculate your equipment subsidy is set out in your welcome letter. The subsidy you pay will be 1/24 of the original value of the equipment minus any up-front payment you made towards it, multiplied by the number of months left of your minimum period at the time the agreement ends. We’ll add this charge to your final bill.

If we want to suspend our services or end the Agreement.

We may suspend our services or end the Agreement if:

  • You don’t pay any charges on time

  • You don’t do something fundamental that you have to do under the Agreement

  • You use any of our services in a way that may damage or affect the operation of our network

  • You become bankrupt or make an arrangement with creditors. Where we end the Agreement in this way termination fees will apply. We may need to suspend our services if asked to do so by regulators or if required by law

We may end the Agreement if we are permanently unable to provide our services to you. You won’t have to pay a termination fee in this case although you’ll need to pay for your equipment subsidy.
