The Carphone Warehouse (CPW), the world's largest independent mobile phone retailer and Vodafone, the world's leading international mobile telecommunications company, have agreed terms that will see the return of Vodafone contract sales to all UK CPW channels as of next week.

'We have been partners with Vodafone for 20 years and this agreement marks a continued strengthening of our relationship and will benefit both businesses and their customers. CPW has always strived to offer the widest possible choice of handsets, networks and tariffs and our new agreement with Vodafone will bring exciting new products and services to our stores and gives our customers the best possible choice in the marketplace for their communication needs'
