Vodafone UK has announced an enhanced '
Mobile Broadband' (3G) service for both consumer and business customers, which includes a 3GB (GigaByte's) capped service for just £15 per month inc. VAT:
New Consumer Price Plans
For customers who use mobile internet on a laptop or a PC every day, Vodafone is launching the Mobile Broadband 3 GB price plan for £15 per month (incl. VAT). This halves the price of the existing 3 GB offering while providing unrivalled top download speeds of up to 7.2 Mbps per second.
Assurance abroad
Customers wishing to take their laptops abroad can roam for just £9.99 per 24 hour session with Vodafone Connect Abroad in selected countries. Customers can connect in almost all of Europe west of Russia, plus USA, Japan, Australia and New Zealand. Fair Usage Policy applies.
No commitment
For occasional internet users Vodafone UK will introduce a 30 day no commitment plan, Mobile Broadband 30 Day, for just £20.
Greater predictability
With the launch of the new Mobile Broadband pricing Vodafone has introduced a more predictable flat rate charge of £15 per 1 GB for out-of-bundle data downloads. This offers greater certainty, billing clarity for customers as well as greater value for money.
Mobile Broadband Business
It is also good news for Vodafones business customers as the monthly fair usage on its newly named Mobile Broadband Business and Mobile Broadband Business Travel plans goes from 3GB to 5GB per month. Vodafones exclusive USB Modems, the Stick and the Pebble will be free on 18 month and 24 month contracts. Those customers connecting to the 24 month price plan will enjoy six months free line rental (worth £150) and 18 month customers, can save £75 with three months free.
The new prices make Vodafone extremely competitive with similar packages from 'Three' and will no doubt help to make '
Mobile Broadband' more attractive in general. The new services will be introduced from 4th February 2008 and further details can be found here:
