Vodafone is giving its mobile customers, including VOXI and TalkMobile customers, free access to NHS UK online, including the web sites of NHS England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, so that they can get the latest health information at no additional cost.
Free access to these services will be available for as long as the coronavirus (COVID-19) remains prevalent in the UK. While many Vodafone customers are already using unlimited data plans, this move allows all Vodafone customers to be able to access these NHS online services without having to worry about data charges.
Phone calls to NHS 111 are already free to use across all providers.
Nick Jeffery, CEO, Vodafone UK said:
We’re working hard to support all our customers, whether that’s other providers of critical national infrastructure, government departments, businesses both big and small, and our many mobile and broadband customers.
Our technology and ability to move fast mean we can play an instrumental role in this crisis. We can offer all the connectivity tools and services people need to continue communicating and doing business, from broadband to superfast 5G connectivity, videoconferencing to cloud hosting, virtual private networks to internet telephony.
