Where to find Vodafone 4G, 5G & WiFi on the London Underground

The Tube and the Elizabeth line have stations, platforms and tunnels that are deep underground the capital, but you can still stay connected using Vodafone’s network.

Vodafone UK has been working with Transport for London (TfL) and Boldyn Networks to ensure its customers can stay connected, even when they’re well out of reach of standard masts, while travelling on the London Underground and the Elizabeth line.

Vodafone helped pioneer 4G connectivity for passengers on the eastern end of the Jubilee line, starting back in 2020. Aside from the overground portions of both the Tube and the Elizabeth line, here is where and how Vodafone UK customers can stay connected.
