Vodafone moving house is a service for an existing customer of the company who wants their connection to shift to a new address. The Company has a dedicated team to help users to complete the request.

To raise a request, you need to contact the Company with your account details and your new address. The team will then guide you to complete the moving request.

Note: You need to inform the company of the address change before 30 days of shifting.

The service is quite fast, and you can expect your Internet to be running within a matter of a few days in your new home. But for this, you must raise the request well in advance and not on the last few days of shifting.

Before the Move

Most users do not understand the importance of this stage and raise a move request hurriedly. But we recommend our users to keep these things in mind while you plan to shift your connection of the UK Company.

1. Registered Account Holder

Before you contact the Company, you must ensure that you have a registered account. It can be a Vodafone account or a landline number. Or else, your query will not be entertained.

2. Your New Address

Next, you should keep your new address or new home details handy. Remember you must be the legal owner of the property or you must have permission to install a connection in case your house is a leased one.

Make a copy of your address documents or permission from the landlord as you may require showing it to the Company.

3. Check Availability 

This is the most important check that you need to do before you think of shifting your connection. First, use this Vodafone availability checker tool to find out if your new address has the service available.

To double-check, you can contact any person you know of your new address. Ask them the status of the Internet connectivity of Vodafone in that place.

Connectivity is a different aspect, while speed is an important factor. So, check this also.

During The Moving Process

Pack the Instruments

The next step is to pack the router. This is because you will need this at your new house for installation. If you forget this, you may need to pay extra fees. The installation team will reset your router and reconnect it.

Can I keep my Existing Landline Number?

This will depend on the area you are going to reside in. If your area falls under the same exchange, you can keep the number.

However, if your area is out, you will not be able to keep the landline number and must get a new one.

After the Move

The work does not stop here. The company will do the installation at your new home. But you must check if the connection is done properly or not. 

Also, check the following:

1. Check Speed

Check if you are getting the promised speed as per your plan or not. You can use the major speed testing websites for this purpose. Check this for a few days, and if it continues contact the support staff for resolution.

2. Change Address Online

Next do not forget to update the address online in your Vodafone account. This will ensure the correct delivery of any correspondence that the company may send.

Early Termination Fees

If the new area that you want to shift has no Vodafone connectivity, you can ask for a cancellation of connection. Also if Vodafone doesn’t cover your new area, you can use a broadband checker to see which broadband companies are available.

In this case, you may need not to pay any Early Termination Fees.

However, if you cancel the connection and take choose a new provider yourself for any reason of yours, you must pay the Early termination fee.

You must also provide your new residence proof to the company.

Conclusion

We hope after reading this article, you can understand that Vodafone Broadband moving house is not as difficult as you may think.
