If you've ordered or bought a Vodafone Pay as you go device, a Pay monthly device and plan and/or the Vodafone Broadband and Home Phone Service (together, the 'Services'), this policy tells you:
Our returns policy gives you 14 days to change your mind, whatever the reason and you can cancel or return your order within 14 days from when you receive the order. Other charges may apply to use the Services until you cancel your order.
Our 14-day returns policy doesn't apply to:
To make a claim under our 14-day returns policy, you'll need to tell us that you want to cancel your Service(s).
To confirm your cancellation contact us on 03333 040 191, or for accessories on 033333 048 069. Standard call charges apply. You can also write to us at: Vodafone Limited, The Connection, Newbury, Berkshire, RG14 2FN or complete our cancellation form. Print it out and send it to us at the address provided on the form.
Please get in touch on 08080 034 515, free from all UK landlines and mobiles. We'll need your name, account number, address, telephone number and other personal information.
You'll need to return any Equipment we've supplied you, such as your mobile device, Vodafone Broadband router or accessories. Just pop into your nearest Vodafone store with your Equipment and proof of purchase, and our retail advisers will be able to help you. Unfortunately, you can't take a Broadband router back to any of our stores.
Alternatively, we'll send you a pre-paid envelope which will arrive in two to five days after you've contacted us. You must put all the Equipment that came with your order into the pre-paid envelope and send it back to us. Make sure that all items are protected and boxed securely.
If you choose to return your Equipment via post, a £8.50 administration fee will be charged to your account (this administration fee doesn't apply to Broadband returns via post). There's no charge if you return your order at your nearest Vodafone store
Once we've received and processed your return, we'll then complete your cancellation request and close your account for the Service(s) you've cancelled.
All Equipment must be in a like-new condition (this includes where applicable, the mobile device, charger, headphones, battery, instructions, and other products that came with your order). You must also return any other free or promotional products that you received with your order (for example, free headphones or phone cases) if you cancel within the first 14 days. We'll accept fair wear and tear.
Like-new condition means:
Check your item is undamaged (this means there are no cracks, chips or visible signs of wear and tear) and in its original packaging (if you have it).
If you return a damaged item to us, you may be charged up to 40% of its value.
You must remove any security and other protective features that stop us from accessing the Equipment, such as 'Find my phone'.
If an Apple mobile device is running iOS 7 or later, we won't be able to give you a refund unless you've turned off the 'Find my iPhone' feature. If you return a device with the 'Find my iPhone' feature activated, you'll be charged and invoiced for the full amount of the device.
If you cancel your order before the end of the 14-day returns period and we've started to provide you with any of the Services, you may lose any offers or discounts that may have been applied to other services you've decided to keep. You'll also need to pay for:
If the Equipment was delivered to you, we'll refund the standard postage costs, if applicable.
It's your responsibility to make sure you don't use the Services, once you've told us you want to cancel. If you keep using the Services after you've told us, you'll be charged.
If you change your mind after the 14-day returns period, you'll need to give us 14 days' notice and pay an early termination fee. More information, including how to calculate your early termination fee, is provided in the charges guide for each Service.
If a fault occurs in the first 14 days after purchase, please get in touch as we'll need to check and test the Equipment for you. If this confirms a fault, we'll contact you to discuss your options – you can have it repaired, replaced or simply return it. If you have an issue with your Broadband router, we'll replace it.
After 14 days, we'll try and repair the Equipment for you. We'll let you know about any charges beforehand. If it's covered by the manufacturer's warranty, you won't be charged for this. If we take your Equipment away for a repair, you may be able to borrow another similar item while you wait for yours to be repaired.
Damage to Equipment isn't covered by the manufacturer's warranty. If it's damaged rather than faulty, we'll let you know how much the repair or replacement will cost.
Our returns policy won't affect any of your legal rights. For more information on your rights, contact your local Trading Standards department or Citizens Advice Bureau
