How hard is it to cancel Vodafone España?
Vodafone España scores 60/100 (grade C) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the ES, a partially documented cancellation policy with notable gaps. Cancellation is available via phone, postal mail, online (self-serve).
Cancellation requires calling 22123 or 912 222 123 (Bajas line, Mon-Fri 9:00-21:00) or sending a signed withdrawal letter by post to Vodafone's Madrid cancellation department; the process is hybrid, after a phone call, Vodafone sends an SMS link where the customer confirms which services to cancel online, with the cancellation taking effect within 2 business days. Within-cooling-off-period withdrawals are penalty-free (7 days for in-store purchases, 14 days for online/phone/mail contracts); outside that window, early termination penalties apply, up to €314 for fiber (12-month commitment) decreasing proportionally, and variable penalties for device-financed mobile plans (24-month commitment). Refund/proration terms are not explicitly detailed; penalties are the disclosed consequence for early exit. Spain does not impose a mandatory single-click online cancellation button equivalent to Germany's §312k.

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights, scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
