[News] Vodafone Offers Free 4G on Selected Plans

Vodafone today announces free 4G on all current On Account and SIM only plans, and increases in monthly data allowances across On Account and SIM Only packages for new and existing customers – at no extra cost.
Data allowances on Vodafone’s Red and Red Essentials packages have been boosted. Red now comes with 2.5GB and the data on Red Essentials has increased to 1.5GB.  Customers with a $59 SIM Only plan will get 1.25GB data; those on a $39 SIM Only plan will get 1GB.  All existing customers on these plans will be automatically upgraded to the new data allowances, with no increase in monthly fee.

Vodafone Consumer Director, Matt Williams says the way Kiwis are using their mobile and tablets has evolved since Vodafone brought 4G to New Zealand eight months ago.

“Vodafone 4G is giving our customers new flexibility and independence.  It lets them share more, stream more and shop more on the move. Superfast 4G opens up a range of possibilities for our customers – from browsing to gaming to HD movie streaming – so it’s right that we increase the data allowance on our plans to meet these needs.”

In addition to large data allowances as part of the monthly plans, Vodafone customers can keep control of their 4G data use with Vodafone’s exclusive Flexi Data service.  Flexi Data allows customers to purchase as much data as they want as they use it during the month.  The service alerts customers when they’re approaching their data allowance limit, and when their limit is reached – letting customers use their device freely while staying in control of how much they spend.

Williams continues: “Vodafone now offers the fastest 4G in more places.  Our network is well-established, with broad coverage available to over 1.26 million Kiwis across nine towns and cities: Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Queenstown, Wanaka, Lake Brunner, Taupo, New Plymouth and Palmerston North.” 

As part of planned network upgrades ahead of the holiday season, Vodafone will roll out 4G to a further 20 places around the country before the end of the year.
 
Changes take effect from 6 November, 2013
