Vodafone broadband – Add to Plan streaming deals explained

Vodafone has switched on its Add to Plan entertainment service for UK home broadband customers, letting households bolt streaming and digital subscriptions such as YouTube Premium, Disney+ and DAZN onto their fixed broadband bill, with introductory free periods and in-app controls to pause or cancel.

Vodafone Streaming add-ons

What has Vodafone changed?

Vodafone’s Add to Plan feature started on Pay Monthly mobile plans, but from 19 November 2025 it now covers broadband customers as well.

If you take Vodafone home broadband, you can now add selected entertainment and online services to the same monthly bill as your connection. The change applies to fixed broadband customers across Vodafone’s national footprint, which uses full fibre networks from Openreach and CityFibre, and more recently Community Fibre in London.

The hook is simple: you manage your broadband and streaming subscriptions in one place, through Vodafone’s Subscription+ portal or the My Vodafone app, instead of juggling separate direct debits and renewal dates.

How broadband customers can use Add to Plan

Add to Plan sits on top of your broadband account as an optional extra. Eligible customers log in to Vodafone’s entertainment portal or app, choose a partner service, and link it to their Vodafone bill using a one-time PIN.

Key points:

  • Most add-ons are on rolling 30-day arrangements, so you can cancel at any time; charges stop once the current billing period ends.
  • Subscriptions remain separate services with their own apps and content libraries, but the billing moves to Vodafone.
  • Vodafone provides in-app controls to pause, cancel or upgrade supported subscriptions, so you do not have to visit each provider’s website to make basic changes.

Previously, this sort of management was limited to Vodafone Pay Monthly customers. Extending it to broadband users means a household could now have broadband, mobile, YouTube Premium and discovery+ all coming off the same bill if they wish.

Streaming and entertainment deals on offer

To mark the expansion of Add to Plan to broadband, Vodafone is promoting several introductory entertainment offers:

  • Two months of YouTube Premium at no extra cost, then £12.99 per month unless cancelled.
  • Two months of DAZN’s Flexible Pass for £14.99 per month during the offer, then £24.99 per month if you keep it running.
  • Three months of Disney+ Standard with ads at no extra cost for eligible customers, with the offer currently scheduled to end on 3 December 2025; after that, it renews at £5.99 per month unless you cancel.
  • Three months of Crime+Investigation at no extra cost, then £4.99 per month.
  • Six months of discovery+ at no extra cost, then £3.99 per month.

Alongside these headline offers, Vodafone says broadband customers will also be able to add services such as Amazon Prime, Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass to their bill, with more partners expected over time.

As always with promotions, the prices and end dates are subject to change. Anyone considering these add-ons should double-check the current offer details on Vodafone’s entertainment page before signing up.

How Vodafone is tying streaming to its full fibre broadband

The change comes as Vodafone, now operating under the VodafoneThree group, continues to lean heavily into fixed broadband alongside its mobile business. The provider uses the Openreach and CityFibre full fibre networks across much of the UK and has recently added Community Fibre’s London network on a wholesale basis, taking its full fibre footprint to more than 21.5 million premises.

On its own website, Vodafone promotes full fibre speeds up to 2.2Gbps on Pro 3 broadband in certain areas, with a range of 74Mbps–910Mbps plans for most homes.

Add to Plan gives Vodafone a way to tie entertainment more closely to those connections without building its own TV platform or forcing customers into long TV contracts. Instead of a proprietary set-top box, customers simply continue using the apps they know on smart TVs, streaming sticks, phones, tablets and games consoles, while the billing runs through Vodafone’s systems.

Benefits for Vodafone broadband customers

For many households, the main advantage here is convenience.

  • One consolidated bill can make it easier to keep track of monthly spending across broadband and entertainment, especially for families juggling several subscriptions at once.
  • The introductory offers let you test services like DAZN, Disney+ or discovery+ for a few months without paying full price from day one, provided you remember to cancel if you no longer want them.
  • In-app controls to pause or cancel make it simpler to cut back when budgets are tight, without hunting through multiple websites to find cancellation options.

For Vodafone, it also deepens the relationship with broadband customers: once several entertainment services are linked to the broadband account, those customers may be less inclined to move elsewhere unless they see a clear saving or speed upgrade.

Things to watch before you sign up

Bundling subscriptions this way is not risk-free.

First, all of the headline promotions roll over to standard monthly pricing unless you cancel before the trial period ends. If you forget to cancel, your bill will jump to the normal monthly charge for each service, and those amounts will quietly sit inside your Vodafone bill rather than arriving as separate charges.

Second, if you like to switch broadband provider every 18–24 months to secure better prices, you will need to deal with any Add to Plan subscriptions before leaving Vodafone. In practice, that may mean cancelling them and re-joining directly with each streaming service or through your next provider, depending on what that provider offers.

Third, combining everything into one bill can make it slightly harder to see the cost of each individual subscription at a glance. You will need to check your Vodafone bill or the Subscription+ portal carefully to understand which services you are paying for and at what price.

Finally, it is worth remembering that app support, devices, picture quality and content catalogues are all controlled by the streaming platforms themselves. Vodafone can help with billing and access codes, but if you have an issue with content or device compatibility, you will still be dealing with the streaming provider’s support team.

How this compares with other providers’ entertainment bundles

Vodafone’s approach sits slightly apart from what some rival broadband providers do in the UK.

  • Sky focuses on its own hardware and platforms such as Sky Stream and Sky Glass, tying TV, broadband and streaming into a single ecosystem, often on longer contracts that bundle multiple channels and apps together.
  • Virgin Media O2 combines broadband with Virgin TV and has its own app-and-box ecosystem, alongside bundles that include Netflix on certain plans.
  • BT and EE sell broadband with add-ons such as Netflix, NOW and TNT Sports, but these are typically tied into broader TV or mobile packages rather than managed as a pure subscription layer on top of broadband.

Vodafone, by contrast, is effectively offering a subscription hub: it brings together third-party apps, leaves content delivery to those apps, and focuses on billing and simple management tools. For customers who prefer to stream through smart TV apps or devices they already own, that will often be more flexible than taking on another TV box and multi-year TV contract.

What Vodafone broadband customers should do next

If you already have Vodafone home broadband:

  • Log in to your My Vodafone account or the Subscription+ portal and check which entertainment offers are currently available for broadband customers.
  • Compare the free or discounted periods with your existing subscriptions. If you already pay directly for YouTube Premium, Disney+ or discovery+, think carefully about whether you want to move those payments onto your Vodafone bill or keep them separate.
  • Set calendar reminders for a few days before each trial period ends so you can decide whether to keep or cancel the add-on before the standard monthly price kicks in.

If you are considering switching to Vodafone broadband mainly for these entertainment bundles, it is worth comparing core broadband prices, contract terms and mid-contract price rise policies with other providers first. The streaming extras can be useful, but the underlying broadband speed, reliability and long-term cost should still be your main decision points.

As always, check the latest details on Vodafone’s site before you sign anything, as both entertainment partners and promotional pricing can change at short notice.
