Vodafone Will Begin To Charge For Data Over 500MB

Vodafone Will Begin To Charge For Data Over 500MB

Offering Apple’s iPhone always seems to put a strain on any carrier’s network, as AT&T found out the hard way. Now Vodafone UK might be feeling the pinch too, as the carrier has confirmed, via its forum, that it’s planning to impose some new charges from June 1st onwards. While the carrier will still be offering 500MB of data with any bundle plan worth £25 or more, but users who go past the 500MB threshold will be charged £5 for every additional 500MB that they use. Folks who are on a plan that doesn’t include any data will be charged 50p for every 10MB of data over the basic 25MB. While £5 isn’t a lot of money, nobody likes having to shell out additional moolah, especially since the carrier previously had 500MB as a fair use threshold, but didn’t charge or throttle the connection unless it started to create problems on the network. Are you comfortable with these new charges, or do you think that it’s a bad deal?
