The UK’s largest communication company, Everything Everywhere has announced that it will benefit millions of UK mobile customers, by giving them faster data and internet speeds in a larger number of places. This is all at no extra cost, and is all down to developments in their mobile network evolution plan.

Everything Everywhere extends the “Big Switch-On”

The “big switch-on” was launched last year, to all Orange and T-Mobile customers, allowing millions of customers to make calls and send text messages, in more places, simply by using each other’s networks. Next week, they will roll out the next stage, the “big 3G switch-on”, which will benefit millions of customers by giving them faster internet and data access, across the UK.

T-Mobile customers already have access to Orange’s network and visa versa, with about 41 million hours of calls being made on each other’s network, and an incredible 5 billion text messages being sent and received.

The CEO of Everything Everywhere, Olaf Swantee said: “This is a significant achievement and demonstrates the latest milestone in our network vision and customer promise – to provide more things, to more people in more places than any other company in Britain.

Customers are always on the move and demanding instant access to information wherever they are. Not only will customers be able to talk in places they weren’t able to before, they’ll also now be able to access the internet, social networks or download emails at improved speeds, in more places.”

The 3G switch-on will start next week, region by region, for all Orange and T-Mobile customers. Network charges to other networks will still remain in place, so do take this into account when making calls.
