Vodafone Full Fibre 150 is a broadband plan with average download speeds of 150Mbps, fast enough for most households — whether you’re watching Netflix in HD, downloading large files, using Zoom for work, or playing games online. It’s a mid-speed plan, offering more speed than entry-level fibre but without the higher price of gigabit broadband.
This is a full fibre connection, so the broadband comes all the way into your home using fibre cables — not the old copper wires. That means the connection is more reliable, with less chance of slowdowns or dropouts during busy times.
Vodafone Full Fibre 150 is available via Openreach, which is widely available across the UK, and CityFibre, which covers parts of many towns and cities. You’ll get the same download speed on both, but upload speeds vary depending on which one is available where you live.
The router that comes with the plan is the Ultra Hub, which supports WiFi 6 and can handle more users online at the same time. If your home is large or has Wi-Fi dead spots, you can add Super WiFi boosters or upgrade to a package that includes stronger whole-home coverage and mobile backup.
Full Fibre 150 comes with a 24-month contract with no setup cost, but keep in mind that Vodafone includes annual price increases.

While download speed stays the same on this plan, the upload speed depends on where you live and which network your home uses.
If your address is on Openreach, which covers most of the UK, your upload speed will be around 27Mbps. That’s good enough for things like video calls, sending files, uploading photos, and backing up to the cloud — as long as there aren’t too many people trying to do all those things at once.
If your home is connected to CityFibre, you’ll get a much faster upload speed — 150Mbps, which is the same as the download speed. This is called symmetrical speed, and it’s useful for people who regularly upload large files, work from home with shared documents, do cloud backups, or live stream content.
The average household probably won’t notice the difference most of the time, but in shared homes or work-from-home setups, faster uploads can help everything run more smoothly — especially when more than one person is online at the same time.
You won’t have to choose the network — Vodafone will tell you which one is available at your address when you check your postcode.
Cost and contract terms
Vodafone Full Fibre 150 comes with a 24-month contract and free setup. The monthly price is one of the cheapest on the market.
From July 2024 onwards, Vodafone has added scheduled mid-contract price increases. This means:
- If you take the plan now, your bill will go up by £3 per month on 1st April 2025
- More increases may follow in April 2026 and April 2027, depending on your contract
These price changes are fixed in pounds and pence, not based on inflation, and Vodafone shows them clearly at checkout. If you’re not comfortable with price changes during the contract, you may want to look at social tariffs, which stay fixed and are available to certain households.
If you cancel the plan before the 24 months are up, you’ll need to pay an early termination fee based on how many months are left.
Router
Vodafone Full Fibre 150 comes with the Vodafone Ultra Hub as standard. This is a WiFi 6 router and ensures faster and more stable wireless speeds for multiple devices.
Key features of the Vodafone Ultra Hub:
- WiFi 6 (802.11ax) for better wireless performance
- Dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4GHz and 5GHz)
- 1× 2.5Gbps WAN port
- 3× Gigabit LAN ports for wired devices like PCs, TVs, and consoles
- Built-in support for Vodafone Super WiFi boosters
- Easy setup using the Vodafone Broadband app
For most small to medium-sized homes, the Ultra Hub should provide good coverage in main rooms. If you live in a larger house or have thick walls that block Wi-Fi signals, you can improve coverage by adding Vodafone’s Super WiFi boosters, which create a mesh system around your home.
If you take the Pro 3 Broadband version of the plan, you’ll get mesh boosters included, plus a 4G backup dongle in case your fixed-line connection goes down.
The router is sent out before your broadband goes live, and once your service is activated, you just plug it in and follow the app to finish setup.
Installation and activation
If your home already has a full fibre line installed — known as an ONT (Optical Network Terminal) — switching to Vodafone Full Fibre 150 is straightforward. In most cases, you’ll just receive the router by post, plug it in, and connect it to the ONT on your activation date.
If your property doesn’t have a fibre line yet, Vodafone will arrange a free engineer visit to install one. The engineer will:
- Bring the fibre cable from the street to your home
- Install the ONT on a suitable wall inside your property
- Connect the fibre and test that it’s working
- Make sure the connection is live and ready to use
This visit usually takes about 1 to 2 hours, and Vodafone will give you an installation date once you place your order. You’ll need to be at home for the appointment.
The Vodafone Ultra Hub router is posted ahead of time, so you can connect it as soon as the fibre line is live. Setup is plug-and-play, and the Vodafone Broadband app guides you through Wi-Fi setup, speed checks and connected device monitoring.
Most homes are up and running the same day the line is installed.
Wi-Fi guarantee and backup options
If you want stronger Wi-Fi coverage across your whole home, Vodafone offers Full FIbre 150 Pro 3 Broadband, which includes following features:
- Super WiFi boosters – these create a mesh Wi-Fi system, helping extend your signal into harder-to-reach areas like upstairs bedrooms or converted lofts
- A Wi-Fi guarantee – if you don’t get reliable coverage in every room, Vodafone will give you £100 credit back, as long as the conditions are met
- A 4G broadband backup – this is a mobile dongle that kicks in if your fixed broadband connection goes down, so you can stay online while Vodafone fixes the issue
- Access to Vodafone’s WiFi Xpert team, who offer extra help with things like booster placement and home network issues
Network availability and postcode checks
Vodafone Full Fibre 150 is available in many parts of the UK, but whether you can get it — and what upload speed you’ll get — depends on which full fibre network is live at your address.
Vodafone uses two networks:
- Openreach – available in most towns, cities and rural areas
- CityFibre – available in selected areas, mostly in larger towns and cities
To check availability, use the postcode checker on Vodafone’s website.
If upload speed is important to you — for example, if you work from home or upload videos — it’s worth checking whether you’re in a CityFibre area, as that version offers symmetrical speeds.
Customer support and service quality
Vodafone offers several ways to get help if something goes wrong or you need advice about your broadband:
- Live chat on the website
- Phone support (usually quicker during weekdays)
- The Vodafone Broadband app — useful for speed tests, device management and Wi-Fi tips
- Community forums where you can read guides or ask questions
- Social media support on X (Twitter) and Facebook
If you take a Pro 3 plan, you’ll also get access to Vodafone’s WiFi Xperts, a specialist team who help with Wi-Fi coverage and booster setup.
In terms of service quality, Vodafone’s customer satisfaction has improved in recent years. According to Ofcom’s latest broadband complaints report, Vodafone’s complaint levels have dropped and are now close to the industry average. That said, response times and customer experiences can vary depending on the issue and support channel used.
How it compares to other broadband plans
Vodafone Full Fibre 150 sits between entry-level fibre and the higher-speed 500Mb and 900Mb tiers. It competes with similar speed plans from BT, Plusnet, Virgin Media, and others, but stands out in a few areas depending on your location.
Compared to BT and Plusnet
BT and Plusnet both offer plans in the 100–150Mbps range over the same Openreach network. The main differences come down to:
- Router features – Vodafone’s Ultra Hub includes a 2.5Gb port and mesh support
- Upload speed – Vodafone has the edge in CityFibre areas where it offers symmetrical speeds
- Price rises – BT uses inflation-linked increases; Vodafone uses fixed £3 steps
Plusnet is often cheaper, but doesn’t include mesh support or advanced backup options. Vodafone strikes more of a middle ground between simplicity and features.
Compared to Virgin Media
Virgin Media’s M125 and M250 plans offer faster downloads, but lower uploads. If you care more about uploading videos, working on cloud platforms, or running multiple video calls, Vodafone on CityFibre may be a better fit.
Virgin’s speeds rely on its own cable network, not full fibre (FTTP), and upload capacity is more limited — especially for remote work or content sharing.
Compared to Vodafone’s faster plans
If your home has more users, heavier usage, or relies on upload-heavy tasks, Vodafone Full Fibre 500 or 910 may be worth considering. These plans offer more headroom, but cost more each month.
For most homes that stream, work from home, and game online, the 150 plan offers a strong balance between speed and monthly cost.
Final verdict
Vodafone Full Fibre 150 is a suitable mid-range broadband plan for most households without stepping into gigabit pricing. It’s fast enough for small families with one to 3 three users , offers excellent router, and includes the option for mesh Wi-Fi and mobile backup if needed.
Its main advantage is the availability of symmetrical speeds on CityFibre, which puts it ahead of some rivals for upload performance. On Openreach, it still performs well for general use.
If you’re looking for reliable full fibre at a reasonable price, and especially if your address is served by CityFibre, Vodafone Full Fibre 150 is worth choosing.
