This is called a Subject Access Request (SAR). Vodafone UK must give you a copy of your personal data, tell you why they hold it, who they've shared it with, and how long they'll keep it — free of charge, within one calendar month.
How to contact Vodafone UK
The most reliable route is to use Vodafone UK's online request form. A postal address is also accepted as a fallback: Privacy Team, Vodafone House, The Connection, Newbury, Berkshire, RG14 2FN.
What happens next
Vodafone UK may ask you to verify your identity before responding — this is normal. Once your request (and identity, if needed) is confirmed, the one-month clock starts. If the deadline lands on a weekend or bank holiday, it rolls to the next working day.

You can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). Right-of-access complaints made up 39% of all complaints in the ICO's Annual Report 2023/24 — more than any other category, around 15,000-15,800 in a single year.
