As mentioned, from Monday 13th December 2021, any changes made on any of your existing or new lines may be subject to pricing change and we do advise that you check with us before any user travels abroad.
We also want to reiterate that any user that plans to go abroad sets a voicemail PIN before leaving the country. You can do this by dialling 121 voicemail > option 4 > option 2 > option 2. If you already have one set and cannot remember what it is, please contact us and we will ask Vodafone to reset your PIN. They will then send you a text within the hour with a temporary PIN that you can either keep or you can follow through the options again to change it to one of your choice. To access your voicemail abroad it will either be 121 or alternatively the international mailbox number: +447836121121
Finally, please continue to check in with us prior to travel so that we can re-confirm bars and costs for your number and where you are travelling to.
If you do have any further questions with the changes highlighted above, please contact us: helpdesk@grapevine.uk.com / 0345 123 6677 (option 1 > option 1)
