Uswitch services are provided at no cost to you, but we may receive a commission from the companies we refer you to. If a deal is "promoted" on Uswitch's tables, then it has been lent additional visibility as a result of us securing exclusivity on a great deal, or a commercial agreement to showcase what we believe to be market-leading value to consumers.

Until 2024, many mobile networks have increased contract prices in line with inflation. Starting in January 2025, Ofcom will introduce a ban on inflation-linked price hikes for new contracts. Future price changes will need to be set and fully disclosed in pounds and pence.
Vodafone SIM only deals work in the same way as any other SIM only deal. You simply choose the data package and price plan that best suits you and then pop the SIM into your smartphone.
Remember, SIM only does what it says on the tin – you don’t get a smartphone included in the deal. That means you must already have a smartphone ready to use.
You can currently get a Vodafone SIM only deal for as little as £7 a month, with 6GB of data included.
If that’s not for you, there are plenty of other deals to choose from. On our Vodafone SIM only deals page, you can set pricing filters so you see only the price plans that suit your budget.

If you joined Vodafone as a new customer, changed your plan, or upgraded on or after 11 August 2021, you will have to pay a daily charge when using your phone in the European roaming zones.
Find out more about Vodafone’s roaming policy in our detailed guide.
To use a Vodafone SIM card, you will need an unlocked phone (or a phone that’s locked to Vodafone). If your phone was previously locked to a different network and you’ve now paid off your contract, you can easily unlock the device.
When your SIM only plan ends, it will usually continue rolling on a monthly basis with your agreed terms. However, you’ll now be free to switch to a new Vodafone deal, negotiate different terms, or even jump to a completely different network.
If you've recently paid off your pay monthly contract and want to switch to SIM only, get in touch with Vodafone’s customer support team and inform them you’d like to change.
They should then be able to offer you a selection of deals that will be cheaper than your pay monthly rate.
