Building the UK's best network

A new era of connectivity

We’re investing £11 billion in our mission to build the UK’s best network. This will help us transform connectivity for every home and business across the nation, powering the UK’s digital future by creating a platform for innovation and next-generation technology.

Connecting every community

Our investment will boost speeds for every customer as we bring 5G Standalone (5G SA) to every corner of the UK by 2034.

From busy city centres to remote rural towns, we're making sure every area has the access it needs, including the most vulnerable within society.

Tomorrow starts today

Better yet, customers don't have to wait to feel the benefits. Within a few months, around 27 million Vodafone and Three customers will begin to benefit from automatically using each other's networks connecting them to the best coverage available, at no extra cost.

Meanwhile, the UK's largest full-fibre footprint will be further supported by Fixed Wireless Access offers and site upgrades. All of which means a faster, more reliable service for every single customer without them having to lift a finger.

Our goals

“VodafoneThree is setting a new standard for connectivity in the UK. With a bold vision and record investment, we're building the fastest, smartest and most reliable network – one that will fuel businesses and keep communities connected like never before. The future starts here.”

What's changing?

Through network upgrades, we’ll reach millions more customers with our 5G SA network, giving customers better quality connectivity and faster speeds in the process.

By the end of the 2025, as a result of bringing the two networks together, we will remove a total of 16,500 sq km of not spots across the nation – an area equivalent to 10x the size of London.

Within just two weeks, through the sharing of combined spectrum, Three and SMARTY customers will receive an improvement in 4G data speeds of up to 20%.

Within just a few months, 27 million Vodafone and Three mobile customers will start to benefit from unrivalled access to roam on each other’s networks – automatically connecting them to the best coverage available, at no extra cost.

In just one year, up to 50 million people (around 71% of the population) will have access to VodafoneThree’s fastest 5G speeds.
