The file ftp://ftp.nasdaqtrader.com/symboldirectory/bondslist.txt lists all companies that have bonds trading. It lists only a few companies. Can it be true? Or are there also other US marketplaces for bonds trading, besides that? I'm not an expert in bonds trading, but does it below really say that one of the bonds of Vodafone Group Plc pays 6.25% p.a.?

My broker has more than 10,000 corporate bonds available, so I'd guess they are not all associated with NASDAQ. The coupon is 6.250%, but the yield to maturity is less, and it's make-whole callable.
Two different numbers and two different concepts. Have a look at the attached 10-Q As noted, the balance sheet is on page 3, but it is page 5 of the PDF $220 million is long term debt, net as of 09/30/23 Don't know where the figure of $3.3 billion came from, but note that total liabilities are $4.394 billion for the period ending 09/30/23 and $3.99 billion for the period ending 12/31/22. The original question in this post was about bonds. And I still say there may not be any publicly traded bonds outstanding. All bonds are debt, but not all debt is bonds.
Be a bit cautious about using "old" ratings when they exist. Debt does not get re-rated unless there is a new issuance. As was mentioned look at their current cost of borrowing. No real reason to get an updated rating unless you're bringing new public debt to the market.
That may be generally true. But many bonds do get updated ratings, whether it is because new debt is issued or for some other reason. As an example, I've attached a Moody's report for a bond issued by PSEC in January 2021. Moody's published a rating in October 2023.
Quite wrong. The opinion is as of the 21 issue date. The companies pay the rating agencies for the opinion and nobody will spend the money.
On the report that I attached, it clearly says that the Rating Date is 02 Oct 2023. This information appears at the bottom of the first page, in the lower left corner.
And here's a Moody's report for a bond issued by Vornado Realty. The lower left box of the first page has the following data: Rating Date 04 Dec 2023 Sale Date 12 Dec 2017
