Fixed-line telecoms provider Alpha Telecom has announced the launch of a UK virtual mobile network called Alpha Mobile. It’s a prepaid mobile service that’s expected to be available from over 90,000 retail stores across the UK by the end the year.

Buying a £30 SIM from the MVNO will give customers what the company describes as ‘unlimited calls’ to landlines and/or mobiles in more than 75 countries. Each £30 top-up is valid for 30 days.

Zafar Mirza, CEO of Alpha Mobile, said “Following the 16-year successful heritage of Alpha Telecom our landline service, we’ve launched Alpha Mobile taking our customer promise to deliver high quality, low-cost products and services, to the mobile market. Alpha Mobile is the ideal service for anyone wanting to save money on UK and international calls when using their mobile device.”

Alpha Mobile runs on the Vodafone UK network via Vodafone’s aggregation partner Cognatel. Terms for the ‘unlimited call’ package limit the total monthly usage to a maximum of 1500 minutes.

He says next year will be a year of rapid change for telecoms… whether it’s MVNO disruption, competitive tariff pricing or simply defence from the ‘dark art’ of hacking.

Mark Bridge writes:

The most memorable moments in life often go unrecorded. You don't have your camera in your hands. Your finger is still hovering over the 'pause' button on your audio recorder. Or you were simply too busy experiencing whatever was happening. It's all about the one that got away.

That's where Kapture can help.
