Vodafone SIM only deals: comparing their plan prices in September

Our favourite SIM only deal of the month on Vodafone

Looking at what you can get on SIM only with Vodafone this September, our best-rated deal would be their 12‑month plan below, which comes with 120GB data, plus unlimited minutes and texts for £14 a month:

Unlimited minutes + Unlimited texts + 0MB 120GB data (5G) = £0 £14 a month (12‑month contract)
£36 cashback (automatic, no need to claim)

🛈 Annual Price Increase: monthly plan increases annually on 1 April by £1.80

You can beat it for price if you don't need your SIM to be with a provider using the Vodafone network. But if that's a must, then it is the lowest-cost SIM with 120GB data or more. See the networks that beat it here:

How Vodafone’s benefits and SIM only deals stack up

As we said in our full review of the Vodafone network, we rate them highly for their fast 4G and 5G speeds and their great overall mix of coverage.

They offer SIM only deals on 1-month, 12-month and 24-month contracts. Generally the longer your contract the less you pay per month, but it’s worth comparing to get the best current overall deal.

Vodafone tend to be one of the more expensive networks, even on their 24-month contracts. There are a few cheaper providers who get full access to Vodafone’s network (including 5G).

Most of their benefits only come on premium plans. Inclusive EU and worldwide roaming is only included on their most expensive deals. And their Entertainment plans give you subscriptions to entertainment services.

Good things to know about Vodafone’s SIM only deals

If you order your Vodafone SIM online you can get your package delivered the next day by DPD. This includes every SIM size for any phone. You can also join on an eSIM on Vodafone or switch to one later (here’s how).

After your SIM arrives you have 14 days to request a refund if you’re not satisfied with it. Here’s their full explanation of their returns policy.

To stop their customers racking up huge bills they can’t pay, Vodafone make you pass a credit check to join any of their SIM only contracts. If you fail this check you can instead join them on a PAYG monthly bundle.

If you’re switching to Vodafone from another network, you can bring over your old number by requesting a PAC from your old provider and giving it to Vodafone. Here’s Vodafone’s guide to keeping your number.
