Are 0800 numbers free to call on Vodafone?

Yes, 0800 telephone numbers are completely free to call from Vodafone mobiles and landline phones in the UK.

Since June 1st 2015 all freephone numbers (including 0800, 0808) except the ones being phased out (0500) have been free of charge to call from all landline and mobile phones in the UK. This is a new Ofcom regulation designed to catch up with changing landscape of mobile phone vs landline phone usage, whereby freephone numbers which were previously only free on landlines are now truly free to phone.
