I don't know why Vodafone UK does not offer to private customers exactly the same as Vodafone Italy...
Vodafone passport for Vodafone IT private customers is valid in all the countries/networks you listed for UK business contracts, with the addition of Vodafone UK (of course, instead of Vodafone IT) and Vodafone Fiji (maybe you forgot it in your list or is it missing?)

Here, Vodafone passport can be activated for free and is valid until June 30th, 2006.
What about UK or other countries?
Is there any rumour of possible extensions after that deadline?

Here there doesn't seem to be any time limit (or their staff aren't aware of one)

Quite strange there are no Si.Mobile Vodafone (SI) and Smartone Vodafone (HK) on the list.

Quite weird that Voda UK lists Monaco, while Voda Italy Liechtenstein! The war of the little countries!

just a quick question to our UK based forum members.

Just got a vodafone UK prepay sim with passport to use in france and i have two questions which the vodafone customer services team (as usual) cant answer

1) Peak and off-peak time bands... will UK time apply or in country time ??

example: i am in france and want to make a call back to a uk landline... At what time of the day should i call to benefit from the 5p/min charge ??? at 7:30 french time or at 8:30 (equivalent to 7:30 in the UK???)

2) Also calls from my Vodafone UK mobile to normal french landlines (as in to access my calling card) ... they are subject to an initial 75p and then how much ??? does it vary with peak and off peak ? is it still 30p peak / 5p off-peak

?

thanks

what ive found so far

8. Daytime, evening and weekend rates are charged according to the time in the country you are visiting. If you are a prepay customer and are in a country where there is more than one time zone, you will be charged according to the time in the capital city.

NO FIJI here... And Passport is indefinite.. its part of the Vodafone travel promise
Vodafone passport is not available in germany for prepay customers

It looks like you answered your own question - local time applies

I don't see that Germany isn't available, and it would be nice for them to add other countries where Vodafone has interest in a network - how about USA [fat chance!]
