Are expensive domestic bills making you wary of signing up to Mobile Broadband?

July 31, 2008 - PRLog -- Latest trend reports from the Mobile Data Association predict that the mobile broadband industry could suffer from slowing subscriber rates, simply because customers can’t afford to splash out on another domestic bill.

This is potentially bad news for what is a very young and flourishing industry and chairman for the Mobile Data Association, Steve Reynolds, has suggested that there should be greater price transparency on the costs associated with using mobile internet if customers are to be persuaded to sign up to another subscription.

So, if you’re longing to sign up to a mobile broadband service but are worried about the consequences of tying yourself into another monthly bill, is there an alternative?
Gillian Nightingale from Mobile Broadband Genie gave these words of advice:

“Unfortunately, to get the very best competitive deals from Mobile Broadband services you normally have to sign up to a lengthy contract that averages around 18-months or longer. This can be a daunting prospect if you are already struggling with your financials or are concerned that don’t know what your money situation will be months down the line.”

"The good news is that you don’t have to sign on the dotted line to get the benefits of broadband on the move. As with lots of services, now may not be the right time to sign up to subscriptions, but with pay-as-you go mobile broadband you know that you can easily manage your finances and limit how much you spend every month,” suggests Gillian. “This is a particularly good option if you are completely new to the concept of being able to access broadband away from home. You can even pick up your dongle in a local high street store like Woolworths on a Saturday morning! There’s no need to trudge round different provider branches.”


Mobile Broadband Genie is the perfect place to find out about any new pay-as-you go mobile broadband offers, and delivers easy comparison results so you can track down a non-contract offer that is both affordable and competitive. Here, you can read up on each provider and keep your eye out for any great contract deals that may launch if you are won over by your pay-as-you-go dongle.
