T-Mobile Launches the Complete Mobile Broadband Gift

T-Mobile unveils a new way to pay for unlimited mobile broadband access

 

London, UK 29 September, 2009:

T-Mobile today unveils a new way to pay for mobile broadband by offering customers three month and 12 month gifts packs which include a Mobile Broadband USB stick and unlimited browsing for a single payment.   

               

The Mobile Broadband 3 Month Gift Pack costs just 44.03, a saving of over 25 per cent on a comparable T-Mobile prepay package.  The Mobile Broadband 12 Month Gift Pack has a one-time cost of only 146.79 for a year’s worth of internet access a saving of over 20 per cent.  

 

Mobile Broadband from T-Mobile offers users access to the internet on their laptop wherever they are.  So for example, those planning a staycation’, or visiting family or friends simply need to plug their Mobile Broadband stick into a laptop to get connected to the internet, wherever they are.  With these new packages, customers can email, blog and chat online whenever they want, making it easier for friends and family to stay in touch.

 

On top of unlimited browsing, the three and 12 month packages include the T-Mobile Mobile Broadband 150 USB stick which has exchangeable covers in a range of designs, making this an ideal gift. 

 

T-Mobile continues its tradition of market innovation by being the first to offer the Mobile Broadband Gift Pack concept a perfect present to help someone stay in touch, coming with everything needed to get online, including unlimited browsing access on T-Mobile’s award- winning network.  With this new package there’s no ongoing cost involved for the person giving or receiving the gift.  And as T-Mobile is the only network not to charge additional run-on rates or extra charges, the recipient can relax in the knowledge that they won’t have to pay any further costs.

 

Helen Wylde, Head of Pay as you go Marketing, T-Mobile said: With Mobile Broadband Gifts, even more people can enjoy T-Mobile’s award-winning mobile broadband service.  Our new packages are designed to make getting online easier and cheaper for customers, giving them the freedom to email and browse the web whenever they want, as much as they want.  And with a one-off cost up-front, and our promise of no run-on rates for the person using their unlimited Mobile Broadband, it’s the perfect present for friends or family.
