Vodafone loses 2 million mobile clients in Romania in one year, mostly prepaid

Vodafone Romania, a key player in the local telecom sector and part of the British Vodafone Group, recorded 6.57 million mobile service customers at the end of June 2024, down from 8.6 million a year ago and 9.6 million in June 2022, according to the parent group’s quarterly report. The decline was primarily due to a decrease in prepaid users. 

Between June 2023 and June 2024, Vodafone Romania lost 1.9 million prepaid clients and 107,000 contract clients, according to the disclosed data. 

Most of this drop occurred between January and March 2024. Fixed internet users slightly declined to 694,000 from 713,000 a year ago. 

Meanwhile, mobile data consumption grew by 11% year-over-year, reaching 227,644 TB in Q1. 

Vodafone group no longer reports individual country revenues. 

In 2023, Vodafone Romania reported a turnover of EUR 1.07 bln, its best result since 2008 and 13% higher than in 2022. However, the company also recorded losses of EUR 36 mln for the fourth year in a row, according to public data from the Finance Ministry.
