A little later than most of the competition, Vodafone has announced it is to launch fixed-line broadband services in the UK, along with combined mobile/broadband deals. The mobile giant has announced a deal with BT Wholesale to provide the broadband service, which should launch before the end of the year.

According to Nick Read, Chief Executive of Vodafone UK: "Today’s announcement is a strategically important step in the evolution of Vodafone’s business in the UK.  Choosing BT as our partner enables us to provide high quality fixed-line broadband services to customers quickly and cost-efficiently right across the UK, and this perfectly complements our national mobile coverage and mobile broadband service. This news is further evidence of Vodafone delivering on its strategy and providing its customers with a total communications solution wherever they are."

In other words, if you’re a Vodafone customer, expect a competitive price deal for your landline and mobile through the letterbox before Christmas.
