New Mobile Connect tariff and pricing structure

Vodafone are delighted to announce the re-structure of Vodafone Mobile Connect price plans on 2nd July 2007, with the introduction of Vodafone Mobile Broadband.

These price plans are targeted at businesses of all sizes, with a simplified structure enabling customers to choose a competitive price plan to fit the way they work.

Vodafone Mobile Broadband consists of the following price plans: Mobile Broadband 24 (Launched Delayed) - These 24 hour sessions are now also available on home soil for occasional users or those who’d like to try the technology without committing to ongoing regular payments. Customers can sign a contract and pay nothing until they chose to connect for a 24 hour session as there is no monthly line rental commitment.

Mobile Broadband - Mobile Broadband offers flat rate monthly access at £25 ex vat per month so customers can enjoy the freedom of being connected all over the UK (over 80% population coverage) to Vodafone’s fast and reliable 3G broadband network.

The 2 options for roaming on the Mobile Broadband price plan are:

1)24 hour session based roaming, at a cost of £8.50 ex vat per 24 hours on selected networks.

2)Per MB roaming, at a cost of £4.25 per MB ex vat, so only cost effective for usage under 2MB.

Mobile Broadband Travel - For the extensive business traveller there’s Mobile Broadband Travel. For a flat rate of £95 ex vat per month, customers can benefit from bill predictability and 200MB on any network where Vodafone UK has a data roaming agreement.

Sharetime Plus Plans

Sharetime Plus plans are targeted at the SME segment and deliver greater value to customers with UK and international call rates and cheap calls between office and company mobiles. The plans are available on 12 and 24 month contracts with a 15% discount on

24 month contracts. Sharetime Plus customers have the ability to add a text and data bundle to their plan. The bundle is added to the lead handset and the sharer mobiles can then share the bundle. The allowances are ‘either or’ e.g: Text 1400 = 1400 text or 74Mb of data or a combination of both. See page 18 for text and data options.

Small Business Price Plans

Small Business Plans address the small business person's requirement for good value flexible price plans with an option for a cost effective mobile email solution. In addition to calls at no charge to company mobiles and company landlines, Small Business plans include Vodafone Passport, two simple flat rates for calling international destinations and increased price plan flexibility.

This is at no additional charge to the customer, they simply pay for what they use. Cheap rates have been introduced for calling from the office landlines to the company mobiles.
