VOXI launches enchanced For Now social tariff

19th April 2022 By: Adam

Vodafone has enhanced its ‘VOXI For Now’ plan, helping those experiencing financial hardship to stay connected.

The plan will give unlimited 5G mobile data, minutes and texts for just £10 a month, for up to six months, to anyone claiming Jobseeker’s Allowance, Disability Allowance, Personal Independent Payment, Employment and Support Allowance, or employment-based Universal Credit. With ‘VOXI For Now’ there is no fuss, no need for a credit check, and no contract to sign. The plan would usually cost £35 a month (70% discount) and is the only mobile social tariff on the market.

‘VOXI For Now’ first launched in November 2020 to help those who had become unemployed as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. The enhanced version makes it easier to access for more customers who are struggling with their finances. The tariff is available on Vodafone’s VOXI brand and is open to anyone (not just the under 25s). Moneyhub will provide VOXI with an automated eligibility checking service, enabling quick and simple access to the tariff. When signing up for the plan, customers will be asked to give Moneyhub consent to check their banking data, using FCA-regulated Open Banking to instantly provide eligibility evidence.

Vodafone believes everyone has the right to be connected, and that connectivity is particularly important for vulnerable customers. Customers on ‘VOXI for Now’ will enjoy the same great benefits that come with being a VOXI customer, including 5G on Vodafone’s leading network. This means those facing financial difficulties do not need to compromise on staying connected.
