Vodafone global coverage/reception is ok, will do, nothing exceptional. However god forbid something goes wrong with your phone and you have to contact customer service it will take a toll on your mental health. It takes an excessive investment of time and yet problems are perpetuated and not solved. There is no such thing as call once and problem taken care of even for simplest of matters that are under warranty. The customer service representatives are curtious and polite but completely ineffectual. if I could cxx my contract i would. I regret signing up with Vodafone. There is no good reason on balance to get a contract with them. Be warned! Go with another company!!!
