Uninor launched data services for its pre-paid subscribers
The data services will be available through a base plan with tariff of 10p per 10kb. Customers will also be able to access the service through two products ' "myconnect 9' priced at Rs 9 that's valid for 3 days and allows free browsing upto 60MB and "myconnect 90' priced at Rs 90 that's valid for 30 days with 3GB of free browsing. However, for both plans, usage beyond free data will be charged at 10p per 10kb, and also allow customers free access to popular social networking sites such as - Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.
David Meneghello, Executive Vice-President, Marketing at Uninor on the launch said, "We had stated earlier that a lot can be done using the opportunities already available on 2G platforms to offer a good quality data experience and services."
He added, "Uninor will focus hard on data, building on our data capabilities to launch many more exciting ideas soon. We have some solid experience in markets very similar to India with unique and successful data-based applications. So watch this space for innovation."
With Uninor's new services getting data started will be a single step process. Customers will not need to search and download GPRS settings. With Uninor's Automatic Device Setting Server, as soon as a Uninor SIM is inserted into the phone, the system detects the device make and model and automatically sends data settings to the phone. Just accept and start surfing.
Moreover, it has only 6 icons on the homepage with loads of content behind them. The portal loads faster and you don't waste time and money trying to navigate to what you want. It's transparent too as MMSs on Uninor will be charged at a standard Rs 5 per MMS, with no other charges.
