Telecoms and broadband giant BT<\/a> is reportedly exploring the possibility of launching a new low-cost mobile service brand to complement their premium EE<\/a> service. Such a move would seek to replicate Three UK<\/a>’s approach with sub-brand Smarty<\/a> or Vodafone<\/a>’s approach with VOXI<\/a>, albeit with some of BT<\/a>’s own unique twists.<\/p>\n

The network operator has occasionally hinted at this idea before, although until now they’ve often seemed to be too focused on other projects to really develop it into something serious. But according to the FT<\/a>‘s (paywall) sources, the telecoms giant is now alleged to be actively exploring a number of different options for launching a budget mobile brand.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> BT<\/a>’s broadband sibling Plusnet<\/a> did previously offer a budget mobile service, although it was positioned more as a value add-on to that than a dedicated service and ended up being retired in 2024 as part of the operator’s big branding shake-up (here<\/a>).<\/div>\n

One such option could involve creating an entirely new brand, in much the same way as Three UK<\/a> and Vodafone<\/a> already did above (not forgetting that O2<\/a> also did this with giffgaff<\/a>) – starting from scratch. The other option could involve BT moving to acquire an existing Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) and then changing it to suit their purposes.<\/p>\n

The move, if confirmed, could be seen as a response to how competitive the UK’s mobile market has become in recent years. Virtual operators seem to have been springing up all over the place, while pure eSIM providers (usually focused more on travel \/ roaming solutions) have recently added yet another new dynamic to the market.<\/p>\n

UPDATE 10:11am<\/strong><\/p>\n

BT has responded to say they have “no plans<\/em>” to change their mobile offering, although we always take any statement using this phrase with a pinch of salt as plans can change, often suddenly. The operator does confirm that they’re working to reinvigorate the BT brand and recently selected agency partner, Uncommon Studios, to help. But Uncommon Studios\u2019 remit is solely to support their BT brand strategy and activation, they are NOT currently responsible for any broader brand strategy review.<\/p>\n

A BT Consumer spokesperson said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWe regularly review our offerings across all our brands to ensure our customers have access to the best products and services on the best network. At present, we have no plans to change our mobile offering.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
