The offer is also available to care workers
Vodafone has extended its free unlimited mobile data offer for NHS and care workers on PAYG deals.
This means Pay As You Go customers are now eligible for the six-months of free unlimited data.
This offer which is open until June 26, was initially restricted to pay monthly customers only.
NHS staff and care workers on Vodafone’s PAYG deals will then have access to the offer for six months from the date of redemption.
Those eligible need to spend a minimum of £10 on the Big Value Bundle.
This deal upgrades their data from 3GB to unlimited and 250 minutes to 6,000.
Vodafone UK chief executive Nick Jeffery said: “Until today, we were only able to offer this benefit to Pay Monthly customers but we know many NHS staff and care workers choose the flexibility of our Pay As You Go services so we have worked hard to find a solution that includes them.
“It’s a small thank you for their great work in this crisis.”
To sign up, eligible customers need to register their NHS email address or their care company name through https://keepconnected.vodafone.co.uk.
Once verified a notification is sent to the customer, with Vodafone provisioning all NHS staff and the first 50,000 care workers to apply.
