Vodafone U

For the first time in India, Vodafone has come up with a unique lifestyle concept directed to the youth.

In today’s day and age, being young means always staying linked to friends and fun, spending  endless hours with the smartphone buddy, sharing bytes with people from different parts of the world via social media,streaming and downloading music, and of course, keeping abreast with whats trending, even while you are reading this. Thus nobody wants to miss anything, not even in the blink of an eye!

This brings us to the tagline, apt and to the point – ‘Fun Always On’. With this main core concept centered around “FUN” Vodafone presents Vodafone U which comes in two power packed packages – one for first time user needs and the other a Recharge pack which can be subscribed to @personal needs.

Everybody wants more for less. Vodafone U understands this need and lets you take your eyes off data rationing without burning a hole in your pocket. Now who wouldn’t want to get their “paisa vasool” right?
With such attractive offers you can only begin to find that your smartphone will soon prove to become your chaddi buddy! Unlimited access coupled with extensive Vodafone coverage and crazy speeds, gives you the power to party on the go, with music you can download at the snap of your fingers!

So now with Vodafone U, you can be sure that the only one person who will become the center of attraction for anything and everything under the sun is……….U !

These are the super cool features that “U” includes:

  Data Allowance: Where you can surf all day and all night at your own convenient leisure. Alternatively you can get a exclusive night allowance for those whose fun begins where daylight ends.
o   3 Buddy Lifelines: The sound of it makes me so excited. Imagine getting a chance to tell your 3 coolest buddies every single story you wanna share at a special call rate of 20p/min.
o   Data Loan: Forget borrowing your friends phone once your data runs out. This is an awesome feature by which you can get data loan of 60MB of 3G/4G for 2 days if you’ve run out of data before your cycle.
  Music, always on: Set your mood to party mode, upliftment mode or just instrumental bliss by getting unlimited free music downloads for 2 months.

To celebrate this brand new concept, Vodafone U organized an event on May 6th, 2016 at Hard Rock Cafe India. The event witnessed youth stars Kanan Gill, Raftaar and TVF, together for the first time ever and created a huge impact.
The overall experience of unveiling Vodafone ‘U’ was FUN! The exclusive and unique digital app assets were revealed to be deeply integrated with the MyVodafone App to make the user experience richer.
Targeted at the socially active, rapidly growing and increasingly demanding Indian youth, Vodafone ‘U’ is a dynamic proposition, perfectly poised to be the ‘Connector’, ‘Enabler’ and ‘Entertainer’ by offering a wide array benefits, delivered digitally and accessible via the mobile to stay always connected with friends, fun and the internet.

Brought-up in an ever connecting world courtesy the mobile revolution, today’s youth is extremely comfortable with technology. The mobile phone plays a central role in their life, both as a command center as well as a companion. Vodafone ‘U’, is thus designed to facilitate better, this unique relationship between the youth and their mobile in a seamless and enriching way.”
