UK ISP Be Broadband ( O2 ) has announced a new partnership offering customers unlimited online storage. Customers will get a 35% discount on
Livedrive services, which enables them to share files between all of their computers, and securely access them online from anywhere.
Livedrive automatically adds a virtual drive to the PC into which users can drag and drop files. These files are then accessible, not only from the PC, but from any browser using a unique and secure web address allocated at sign up. Users can view files, play music, watch videos and, with built in web applications, edit photos and Microsoft Office documents on the move.
Oli White, Head of Marketing at BE Broadband said:
“BE are always looking to form partnerships that will be beneficial to our customers and provide those extra services that enhance the online experience. Livedrive’s storage capabilities mean that they’ll be able to access all of the offline content they have and store it in the cloud. It’s these kind of services that break down the barriers between online and offline and lets BE members ‘Create the New’ wherever they are.”
To take advantage of the offer, BE members should login to the member centre or forum to get their member discount and follow the steps provided. To add to the mobility, Livedrive is also accessible from mobile devices. Additional functionality includes a back up function which allows users to protect any folder on their PC with just one click.
