O2 USB broadband modem E160 - in white
O2 have unleashed a Pay-as-you-go mobile broadband dongle on the UK, with some pricing that is going to cause consternation amongst other Operators:
By launching its USB modem at £29.99, O2 is following up its commitment to offer its customers great products with clear pricing and no strings attached.
Pay & Go mobile broadband customers will also benefit from O2’s new coverage checker and 50-day Happiness Guarantee. Since these new customer-focused measures were launched in November, O2 has seen a considerable drop in the number of returned USB modems, showing that simple, honest advice has led to consumers being better informed at the time of purchase.
O2 Mobile Broadband Pay & Go offers users a fast and easy way to access the internet at home and on the move, without the need for long-term contracts. Customers will be able to access download speeds of up to 3.6Mbps and will have unlimited access to over 6,000 Wi-Fi hotspots across the UK, through our partners at The Cloud.
O2 Mobile Broadband Pay & Go is available in a range of options starting at just £2 a day for 500MB, £7.50 a week for 1GB or £15 a month for 3GB depending on their needs, all with unlimited Wi-Fi access.
Available across the UK, the O2 Mobile Broadband Pay & Go service offers:
- 500MB, 1GB or 3GB download allowance
- Unlimited Wi-Fi access to over 6,000 hotspots in locations such as McDonalds and major airports (e.g. Heathrow, Gatwick)
- No minimum term contract
- 50 Day Happiness Guarantee 1
- 24/7 support from a UK Call Centre
- Plug and play for easy set-up
- Fast wireless access to the internet on the move 2
Customers can purchase O2 Mobile Broadband Pay & Go in any O2 retail store, by going to the O2 Online store at www.o2.co.uk, through a number of our indirect partners such as Carphone Warehouse or by calling O2 customer service on 08705 214000.
Footnote: Unfortunately at this moment you can’t actually find the the PAYG mobile broadband offering on the O2 site – unless I’ve missed something REALLY obvious! However, I’m sure that will be sorted within the next couple of day 🙂
