T-Mobile (www.t-mobile.co.uk) has announced the launch of new mobile broadband pricing when abroad in the form of Euro Broadband Boosters.

Available from the 1st March 2010 to pay per day and pay monthly mobile broadband customers, the Boosters offer users control over the costs of using mobile broadband when on holiday abroad.

Customers will have the choice of 4 Euro Broadband Boosters which can be brought online via a simple webpage that opens automatically when the browser is accessed in Europe.

They are 3MB’s of data for £1 which offers about 15 minutes of online use to quickly check emails, 20MB’s of data for £5 which gives 2 hours online usage, 50MB’s of data for £10 for one days use and 200MB’s of data for £40 for 30 days online usage.

Apart from the 200MB option, all the other data plans last for up to 24 hours from the time of purchase with customers easily able to view their time or data allowance remaining.

The Senior Propositions Manager for Mobile Broadband at T-Mobile, Ralf Pearson, said: “We want customers to be able to get the most from our Mobile Broadband service. As 40% say they want to take their laptop away with them to stay connected, we’re launching Euro Broadband Boosters so they can do this without having to worry about the costs getting out of control”.

Pearson continued: “With this proposition, we’re offering these customers a range of better value, worry-free options, built to suit their different on-line needs while they’re in the most popular travel destinations”.

In the UK, T-Mobile Broadband pay monthly packages start from £10 for speeds up to 4.5Mbps and a 3GB data usage allowance.

Customers can simply pre-pay for a Euro Broadband Booster before they go on holiday and easily top up whilst away if they need to.
