iPhone customers buying a data bolt-on that allows them to get online with their laptop can now get O2 Broadband (www.O2.co.uk) completely free.
The discounted Internet Tethering bolt-on, which costs £9.79 a month for 3GB of data, allows iPhone customers to use their mobile broadband connection to get online with their laptop as well as their phone.
New and existing customers signing up by 31 December can get O2’s Standard up to 8Mb home broadband package completely free, or get a discount of £7.34 against either of the ISP’s 20Mb broadband packages, Premium and Pro.
Peter Rampling, head of consumer mobile at O2, said: “This is a brilliant deal for people who want tethering and home internet. Effectively you get both for just £9.79 a month. Total Connectivity means our customers will always be connected, at home and on the move.”
O2’s Standard package usually costs £7.34 a month for existing customers, while the Premium and Pro packages cost £9.79 and £17.13 a month respectively.
Michael Phillips, Broadbandchoices.co.uk product director, said: “This is the ultimate in broadband bundling, with the standard £9.79 monthly price offering you up to 8Mb home broadband as well as allowing you to use mobile broadband on your laptop and surf the net on your iPhone.
“And if you want even faster download speeds at home, this deal essentially allows you to get speeds of up to 20Mb at home for just £2.45 a month extra.
“O2 Broadband is an award winning provider and makes a great choice for customers new to broadband or looking to switch provider to a faster, more reliable connection. It also offers great customer service and technical support.”
