VODAFONE LAUNCHES THE VODAFONE TRAVEL PROMISE

Commitment to simplify and increase value to Vodafone customers when voice roaming

•                  First element to be launched will be Vodafone Passport, an easier to understand voice roaming price plan

•                  Vodafone customers will be able to call home at domestic rates, with only a connection fee added per call

•                  For the same connection fee, Vodafone customers will be able to receive calls at no additional cost¹

Vodafone announces today the launch of The Vodafone Travel Promise, its commitment to Vodafone customers to offer simplicity and better value for roaming services.  The Vodafone Travel Promise will provide the basis for future roaming services made available to Vodafone customers.

The first element, Vodafone Passport, will offer customers price clarity and certainty when using voice roaming services abroad.  For a one-off connection fee per call, determined by the Vodafone network operator, Vodafone Passport customers will be able to make voice calls at domestic rates when travelling in Vodafone subsidiary and selected affiliate markets².  In addition, when receiving calls abroad, customers will pay the same connection fee, allowing them to talk for up to a maximum of 60 minutes¹, for no additional charge.

Vodafone Passport has been created following extensive customer research to offer greater price transparency and certainty to roaming customers.  For example, a Vodafone UK contract customer in Spain making a five minute call to a mobile or fixed-line number back in the UK, using their inclusive minutes, will be charged £0.75, compared to £3.75 under existing price plans, a saving of 80%.   Similarly, an Italian prepay customer making a ten minute call back to Italy whilst travelling in France, would be charged €10.00 under existing price plans and only €2.15 with Vodafone Passport, a saving of almost 80%. The longer customers talk on a call, the more cost effective the call becomes.

“Vodafone has focused on its customers’ needs and is bringing a tangible benefit for our roaming customers through its global service footprint,” said Peter Bamford, Chief Marketing Officer at Vodafone.  “Our commitment to provide greater clarity on voice roaming pricing will enable our customers to talk more often for longer when abroad.”

Vodafone Passport will be available to Vodafone customers in Germany, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and Sweden from 1 June.  Vodafone Passport will be introduced to customers in Albania, Australia, Hungary, Ireland, Malta, New Zealand, Portugal and the UK during the coming months.

To opt-in, customers can contact their local operator for more details of applicable home rates and connection fees, terms and conditions and information on excluded price plans. Or they can visit www.vodafone.com

The new initiative will be supported by an above and below the line communications campaign, with the theme “The Vodafone Travel Promise”, across Europe.

VODAFONE LAUNCHES VODAFONE SIMPLY

New, easy to use, voice and text mobile service

Vodafone today announces the launch of Vodafone Simply, a new, easy to use mobile service which has been designed for customers who only want a mobile phone with voice and text services.

Following extensive customer research and feedback from thousands of customers, the Vodafone Simply service comprises two exclusive easy to use phones and services with straightforward price plans, supported by specifically trained customer services staff.

Phones

Vodafone worked very closely with its customers in developing the Vodafone Simply phones.  Customers were asked how they wanted their ideal phone to look, what services it should offer, how these services should be accessed and how the phone menus should be structured.

Following this feedback, Vodafone linked up with Sagem to develop two phones: the Vodafone Simply Sagem VS1, a silver, curvy handset and the Vodafone Simply Sagem VS2, a straight, black handset.

Both phones have large screens with legible text and symbols, as well as three dedicated buttons for direct access to the most commonly used services: the Main Screen, Contacts and Messages.  A button on the side of each phone controls ringer volume and a switch locks the key pad.

In addition, on-screen instructions in plain language help customers master the phone quickly and easily.

Services

Both phones offer a voice mail service designed to work like a standard home answering machine.  The Messages button on the phones lights up to notify the customer when a call or text has been received.  To listen to or read the message, the customer just needs to press the Messages button.

In addition, the Vodafone Simply service offers a missed call notification service.  If a call is missed, or a caller does not leave a voice message, the customer receives notification on-screen.

Price Plans

Customers using the Vodafone Simply service will be able to purchase straightforward, value for money, price plans.  For example, in the UK, a pre-paid Vodafone Simply handset will cost £80 and will be free with a monthly price plan.  Using the new Vodafone Stop the Clock price plan, customers will be able to talk for up to an hour in the evenings and at weekends whilst only paying for the first three minutes.

Customer Service

Vodafone has specifically trained members of its customer service staff to help and advise customers in shops and call centres.  The trained members of staff will help customers feel more confident about buying and using their Vodafone Simply mobile phones.

The service will be available in Portugal, Spain and the UK from 24 May.  The Vodafone Simply service will also be available from Vodafone Germany, Vodafone Greece, Vodafone New Zealand, Vodafone Sweden and Swisscom Mobile from 1 June and Mobilkom Austria in July.  Other markets will offer the service in due course.

“We have many customers who want the latest mobile phone with all the advanced services from full track music downloads to video calling and mobile TV. We also have customers who just want to make and receive calls and text messages on their mobile phone,” said Peter Bamford, Chief Marketing Officer, Vodafone Group.  “Vodafone Simply is an easy to use mobile service for these customers, to help them stay in touch with friends and family.”
