Voda Offers Free Facebook - For a Week

Vodafone is offering its customers free access to Facebook on their mobile, or on their computer using Vodafone mobile broadband, for a week, starting this Friday, 24 July. 
The move is part of Vodafone UK’s Free Friday series, which launched with Free Mobile Internet in May to mark the start of a flat daily rate of 50p to browse the mobile Internet, and continued with Free Music Friday in June, when Vodafone became the first mobile operator in the UK to launch DRM-free music.
Connecting to Facebook on a computer or laptop using Vodafone’s mobile broadband service will also be free. Customers who use their mobile will not pay any data charges when they look at their Facebook account. Browsing other sites will be chargeable at Vodafone’s standard rate of  50p per day for pay-as-you-go customers, and customers without data bundles. Anyone using mobile broadband to access Facebook will see their data counter stop for the time they use and browse Facebook.
Free Facebook marks the start of Facebook text alerts from 24 July. Vodafone customers will be able to sign in to www.facebook.com/mobile and select the notifications they wish to receive as free text alerts, from status updates to pokes, and from which friends. Customers will also be able to respond to alerts by text, charged at the standard text rate.
There’s more information about the promotion, including instruction on how to set up alerts, here. And there’s a video here showing what you can do with Facebook on your mobile,
