Our thoughts go out to those affected by the shocking events in Istanbul yesterday evening. We know that at times like these, customers need to be able to get in contact with loved ones without worrying about the cost.

Vodafone will credit all Vodafone UK customers roaming in Istanbul for all calls, texts and data between 8.00 pm on the evening of 28th June and 23:59 on Thursday 30th June.

We'll continue to monitor the situation closely.
