What is Vodafone One Net Express?

Vodafone One Net Express is a unique solution that integrates fixed and mobile voice communications, combining the features of landline with your mobile phone.

One Net Express offers

A landline number on your mobile - so that fixed calls can ring on a mobile phone (known as mobile twinning)
A range of fixed phone system features on your mobiles and desk phones, with no need for a fixed phone system (also known as a PABX), making your landline mobile.
Ability to automatically route unanswered calls to the next available colleague - known as hunt groups
Transfer calls at no cost to any colleague whether in the office or on their mobile call divert, music on hold, auto attendant - press 1 for sales, press 2 for support
As this phone system is hosted in the cloud by Vodafone, it means you don't have to worry about the expense of an on-site system (PABX). There is no capital investment or maintenance cost associated
One contract, one service, one bill, and one voicemail

Is One Net Express the right solution for me?

One Net Express is an ideal solution for companies with fewer than 15 employees who don't want to miss calls on their advertised landline number while they are out of the office. You can be reached no matter which number your customer dials - because mobile and landline work together as one.

Do I have to install any equipment to use One Net Express?

Just plug in your desk phone - there's no other hardware required for One Net Express.

How does One Net Express work?

One Net Express works on Vodafone's mobile GSM network. We transfer your landline numbers onto our network so we can deliver all the great features of a hosted phone system across your mobile and desk users.

Is there anything I should know before buying One Net Express?

One Net Express offers the same coverage you get on your Vodafone mobile. This means that there are some areas in buildings or blackspots that may not get coverage. Our sales advisers will check where you use your office phones and make sure One Net Express is a suitable solution for you.

Then, when we are setting up your service, our Vodafone site partners will do extensive coverage checks to ensure you get the best experience.

What happens if the mobile network goes down?

In the event of disruption to the mobile network, services to both desk and mobile phones will be affected.

If you need back-up or contingency service we can provide a Sure Signal device, which works off an existing DSL line. Alternatively you can advise us to keep an existing PSTN line as back-up. Call divert can then be applied to mitigate the extent of any disruption for the duration of the outage

One Net Express terms & conditions.

Is One Net Express secure?

How is my data protected?

A bill is issued on the 14th of every month with Vodafone One Net Express.

Will I have to move billing day with One Net Express?

Unfortunately at this time we can only bill One Net Express customers on bill day 14. However, you don't need to advise your bank, once we change you to bill day 14 we will not apply for payment until 14 days after the invoice date of the bill. You just need to make sure sufficient funds are available for payment on the date advised.

If we don't answer a customer's call will they still be charged?

Yes they will. When customers call your One Net Express landline number a message will be played advising them “Please hold the line while we transfer your call”. As with a normal PABX, once the message is played it is deemed a connection. In order to maximise your company's chances of answering all your customer calls, we advise you to have a hunt group set up. You also have the ability to tailor the recorded message to your own requirements.

Can I set up my company main number to ring on specific phones?

Yes. Vodafone Site Services will take you through all elements of setting up your One Net Express account.

Can I use non geographic numbers on One Net Express?

Yes, customers who have the One Net Express service can terminate 18xx, 15xx and 0818 numbers on a One Net Express device.

Will customers be played music if they are put on hold?

Customers will hear an "on hold" tone. You can discuss this with the Vodafone sales agent and Vodafone site services.

How do I add a new user to my One Net Express account?

More information on Vodafone Terms & Conditions.

Why did I get another bill from my previous operator?

Once your phone line and services have moved to Vodafone, you will receive your final bill from your previous provider that includes charges up to the date that your line was transferred.

At Vodafone we consolidate your call charges, line rental, broadband and other services on to one single bill.

Plus, we will automatically transfer over all of your call management, forwarding, voice mail and other services from your previous provider.

Why is my first month’s bill larger than my stated monthly charge?

If your first bill is higher than expected this is because you have been billed part-month rental charges and one month in advance. This will only be applied to your first bill.

Here's a summary of the charges that appear on your bill.

Part-month charges – these are simply rental charges for your Vodafone at Home services. They are charged from the date it went live, to the end of that month. If you have ordered a home phone and broadband package, the home phone service goes live first and you will only be charged for this service until your broadband service goes live.

Recurring items – this is the total amount due for your rental package for the billing period. It is charged monthly in advance.

Usage charges – this is the total amount due for calls made in the billing period.

What are 'other operator charges' on my bill?

Other Operator charges are services that you had in place with your previous provider and are automatically transferred over when you join Vodafone.

These charges include services such as:

Eircom.net dial-up internet packages
Voicemail
Call barring
Equipment rental etc.

They are charged on to you at exactly the same price as Eircom charged before you joined Vodafone.

If you would like to stop any of these services, just contact us.

How do I track my speeds?

You can track the speed at which your broadband loads webpages and downloads files using speed checkers on the internet, for example Speedtest.net.

They measure your throughput speed, rather than your maximum speed, which is usually reduced in the afternoons and evenings (between 5 and 10 pm) when congestion is heaviest.

Your speed is determined by many things:

The speed of your phone line
The speed of your computer
Congestion in the telephone network
Congestion on the Internet
The speed of website servers

Your broadband will always try to connect at the highest possible speed available on your telephone line, which is why we refer to our broadband services as 'Up to' a certain speed.

What happens if I go over my broadband download limit?

Your data usage limit depends on the broadband package or bundle you’ve chosen. You can check what your usage limit is as well as how much data you have used so far this month from your My Vodafone Office online account.
