Today, Vodafone and Currys have announced they are expanding their partnership, with the full range of Vodafone Home Broadband services now available in all Currys stores. This includes Vodafone Pro II Broadband, which has the UK’s fastest WiFi technology throughout the home, and access to Vodafone full fibre, the most reliable broadband technology.
Full Fibre broadband: Everything you need to know
Full fibre broadband is in the news a lot, but there are crucial differences between the types you can get. We explain what those are and why it matters.
The expansion into offering Vodafone home broadband builds on the existing partnership between Vodafone and Currys, providing customers with the choice of Vodafone’s reliable, award-winning network* and fast, reliable broadband at an affordable price.
With Vodafone now the UK’s largest full fibre provider, offering the most reliable broadband technology to more homes than any other provider, its services will be available through Currys. Currys’ customers who want reliable WiFi coverage in every corner of their home will be able to purchase Vodafone Pro II Broadband, which includes the most advanced and fastest WiFi technology ever with the next generation WiFi 6E. This unbreakable solution comes with Super WiFi 6E boosters that can connect over 150 devices and automatic 4G broadband backup, so customers don’t lose connectivity if their broadband connection ever drops.
What is WiFi 6E? WiFi router differences explained
There are various versions of WiFi – which one your router and devices have will determine the speed and range of your wireless internet connection. We explain what they are and how to find out which ones you have.
Currys’ customers will benefit from great value home broadband deals as well as access to Vodafone’s reliable, award-winning network. With nearly 300 stores across the UK and close to 15,000 colleagues, this expansion into home broadband will see countless customers stand to benefit from expert advice and in-store access to market-leading products. Even better, Currys’ existing Vodafone pay monthly mobile customers can access a Vodafone Together discount when they buy Vodafone broadband, saving £3 a month on their broadband bill. This will be available in Currys stores from 31 May 2023.
Max Taylor, Vodafone’s Chief Commercial Officer in the UK, said: “I am delighted to announce the availability of our market-leading Home Broadband range with Currys. Vodafone has the largest fibre footprint in the UK and the most reliable in-home WiFi technology, all at affordable prices. There is no better time to switch to Vodafone Home Broadband.”
