Super-value Mobile Web offer for PAYG smartphone users
Virgin Media launches a brand new scorcher of a deal to make mobile access simpler and even better value this summer for pay-as-you-go customers with smartphones. Customers with Virgin Media’s pay-as-you-go Addict SIM looking to get online as the sunny days roll-on will now be able to purchase a super-value PAYG Mobile Web voucher, offering six months of inclusive Mobile Web access in the UK for just £25. Perfect for those on tight budgets looking to manage their costs without the worry of excessive data charges, the new offer provides up to 1GB of data per month to tweet, poke or share their favourite links whilst on the move.
Once purchased the voucher can be activated whenever the customer needs to give six months of continuous bundled mobile web access. Customers can check their usage easily by either texting, calling us for free on 789 or visiting the virginmedia.com website from their handset. Customers with Android handsets can also download a free ‘My Account’ app from Android Market, with apps for other smartphones coming soon. Should customers exceed the 1GB monthly allowance, usage above this will automatically default onto the standard rate* for daily mobile web until the deal refreshes for the following month.
Jamie Heywood, Director of Mobile at Virgin Media said: “With what promises to be a sizzling summer, whether checking emails in the local park or locating the best place for a glass of Pimms in the sunshine, this new offer is a fantastically affordable way to take advantage of the mobile web for pay-as-you-go customers. With consumers looking for ways to get the best value possible this new offer is perfect for the cost-conscious mobile social networker looking to take full advantage of their smartphone.”
The time-limited offer is available from June 1st 2011-Jan 3rd 2012. When the six month period comes to an end, customers will have access to a range of options including getting 1GB Mobile Web access included with a £15 Addict top up, purchasing a 1GB Mobile Web pass for £5 per month or default to the daily rate of 30p per day for 25MB of usage.
The PAYG mobile web voucher can be purchased alongside the PAYG Addict SIM from the Virgin Media website and Virgin Media stores. For further information, visit virginmobile.com.
