Tesco Mobile launches 4G on its UK virtual network

UK MVNO Tesco Mobile has launched 4G on ‘pay monthly’ deals for new and existing customers. Customers can choose to pay an extra £2.50 per month if they want 4G connectivity added to their existing tariff, including SIM-only contracts.

This enables customers to use 4G from £10 per month with 500MB of data and an allowance of 250 minutes of calls.

Tesco Mobile uses the O2 network, which means its 4G coverage is currently available in Birmingham, Bradford, Coventry, Leeds, Leicester, Liverpool, London, Nottingham and Sheffield.

Simon Groves, Chief Marketing Officer of Tesco Mobile and Tesco Telecoms, said “4G is amazing and will revolutionise the way we use our mobile phones so of course we want to make it accessible and easy for all our customers to try it and enjoy it. As Tesco Mobile launches 4G we’re bringing it to all our customers at a great value price and if it’s not for them, they can switch back to 3G or adjust their 4G data allowance to suit their needs whenever they like.  It’s why we call it Flexi-bendi 4G and its what makes our 4G offering the most customer centric in the market.”

Let the tills ring out...

Mark Bridge writes:

We’re moving into that time of year where product announcements are replaced by promotional campaigns and sales figures. Apple revealed it had sold three million assorted iPad tablets in just three days, while Samsung said its Galaxy SIII smartphone had sold more than 30 million units since its launch in May.

Expecting the expected

Mark Bridge writes:

New 'Shatoetry' app lets users send messages in William Shatner's voice

Mark Bridge writes:

Look, I’m a fan of William Shatner. I enjoyed his autobiography on oh-so-many levels. And now the man known to many as Captain Kirk or T J Hooker has launched an iPhone app. It’s one of the few occasions I wish I had an iPhone.

Big news but no big surprises

Mark Bridge writes:

In many ways it’s been a week of big news without big surprises. Apple announced the much-rumoured iPad mini, which is just like an iPad but smaller. It also introduced a fourth-generation update to its larger iPad, promising more speed and more 4G connectivity.
