Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Instant access when you need it - and no more paying when you don't. TopUp and Go gives you all the flexibility of mobile broadband, without the monthly contract. With download speeds of up to 3.6 Mbps, it's faster than 3G. Your USB modem even comes pre-loaded with 1GB of data - that's 30 hours surfing, 650 emails and dozens of downloads. And when your credit runs out, simply top up to enjoy more of the same - fast, reliable broadband that covers 80% of the UK. No contract. No monthly bill. No fuss. Get it now then top up whenever it suits you.

Where can I top up? You can buy £15 TopUps from any Vodafone Retail store or many other retailers. £15 will get you 1GB of data which has no expiry date so you can take as long as you need to use it.

Requires a laptop or PC with Microsoft Windows XP or Vista / at least 50 MB of free disk space and 128 MB RAM.  Mac support: Please note that the VF TopUp and Go mobile broadband does not currently support the Apple Mac.

4.0 out of 5 stars works well so far!, 8 Feb 2009
This review is from: Vodafone K3565 Prepay USB Mobile Broadband - 1GB (Electronics)
I bought this for use in our motorhome. (Had tried Datawind pocketsurfer which was very disappointing). I have Broadband at home so do not want a monthly contract mobile one as well.
I chose Vodafone a)because my Vodafone phone works at all the places we usually visit on holidays and b)it is PAYG and the money does not expire after a month as some others appear to do.
The dongle just installs itself, no CD software needed, and away you go. I tried it at home on my computer and laptop. No problems on either although I have not been away yet in the motorhome with laptop and dongle. (I will update this when I have used it on holiday!)
My one disappointment (hence only 4 stars) is that you can not use it abroad. I wanted to use it in Europe this summer. Vodafone's monthly contract mobile BB can be used abroad so if they are reading this, please make the PAYG one international too.
I am convinced that mobile Broadband is going to be VERY popular and this one is ideal if you don't want a contract for whatever reason.
(NB this is July -have used dongle lots of times for emails & webpages & still have over £13.50 left of the £15 it came with. BUY it.)

1.0 out of 5 stars Vodafone loses it's edge, 13 Feb 2010
By Bobsta (UK) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
This review is from: Vodafone K3565 Prepay USB Mobile Broadband - 1GB (Electronics)
I purchased this mobile broadband dongle to use with my netbook in the event of having no Wi-fi or LAN connection. I thought this product would be solution. I bought this product on the basis that it said my top would not expire for 6 months. Imagine my horror when I was sent the new dongle with updated software that meant my top-up only lasted for 30 days. I think Vodafone are trying to get people to subscribe to a monthly contract by making the top-up fee the same as a monthly contract. Sorry Vodafone - you offer a great service for my telephone and messaging needs but the new T&Cs for the broadband dongle is an unpopular move.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for keeping up with emails, 11 April 2009
By S. Camp (Worthing, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Vodafone K3565 Prepay USB Mobile Broadband - 1GB (Electronics)
We wanted to be able to pick up emails while on holiday without being tied into a contract so this dongle was ideal. It was easy and reasonably quick to set up. It worked well, if a little slow, once we found the right direction to point it (we were in a poor mobile reception area). We are hoping for same result on our next holiday. N.B. Air time is valid for 6 months, not indefinately.

Arrived in good time and works well. Just a shame you can only top up this in £15 increments. Doesn't always connect on the fastest link.
