Vodafone offers unbeatable full fibre broadband in Rotherham and Gloucester with speeds of over 900Mbps, from just £30 a month

Vodafone’s fastest full fibre 900Mbps broadband package is now not only available in Rotherham and Gloucester, it's on sale at half price – from £60 a month to just £30 a month.

Broadband just got better for homes and businesses in Rotherham and Gloucester, thanks to the arrival of full fibre broadband from Vodafone. Both locations are among the first of 20 new places getting access to the service.

Vodafone’s fastest full fibre 900Mbps broadband package is now available in Rotherham and Gloucester. To celebrate, Vodafone is currently offering the service at half price – from £60 to just £30.

The deal celebrates Vodafone becoming Britain’s newest full fibre broadband leader, with the ambition to reach more than eight million homes with full fibre by spring 2022 following a new deal signed with CityFibre in November 2021. The offer is available to homes reached by the CityFibre network and if Vodafone full fibre broadband isn’t currently available, customers can still buy Vodafone Pro broadband and receive a free upgrade to full fibre when it reaches their area.

Max Taylor, Consumer Director at Vodafone UK, said; “Consumers need competition in the broadband space, and we’re committed to delivering that. For residents in Rotherham and Gloucester, we’re making the fastest broadband, with a premium package of features and benefits, even more accessible than ever with this great new offer.”

Residents and businesses in Rotherham and Gloucester can find out more online and can also register their interest.
