ONE launches unlimited US data roaming
One Communications has expanded the benefits of its Carry-On Roaming mobile product, with US-bound customers receiving unlimited data roaming for the first time.
For the same $8/day, all postpaid customers will now have access to unlimited data in the United States each day, with 250MB of data at full speed. The change will be made to the carry-on auto pack which, until now, was limited to 100MB of data per day.
ONE said: “Customers remain in complete control of their data roaming spending with no overages, no surprises and a lot more data. Once the 250MB full-speed data allotment is exhausted, the Carry-On Roaming pack will allow continued data roaming at reduced speeds.
“Once the speed is reduced, the product is specifically designed to facilitate communications like messaging, voice calls over applications, Google Maps, etc, without any further purchases.
“Customers who require more than 250MB of full-speed data per day can purchase more from the Carry-On web portal.
“The Daily Pack is still $8 but now contains 250MB of full-speed data, increased from 100MB. The weekly pack is still $60 but contains 2,000MB of full-speed data, increased from 750MB.”
“It has been one-year since the launch of Carry-On Roaming,” said Brian Lonergan, chief commercial officer, “and we are excited to now offer unlimited roaming in the United States.
“The goal has never changed. We want to provide our customers with a great experience on their smartphones when travelling abroad, while creating absolute certainty around the cost of that service. Unlimited data roaming in the United States is a perfect way to achieve this, and we intend to expand that same great experience to as many other countries as possible in the near future.”
“While designing this product the most important consideration was keeping our customers connected at all times while travelling.
“The reduced data speeds are purposely designed to allow users to keep in touch with voice calls through WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, etc, while browsing websites and social media and finding their way with Google Maps, all without the need to buy more data during the day.”
