3 Business, the new small business division of mobile operator 3, has launched two new offers to give small businesses more cost effective access to mobile broadband. The changes see 3 increasing the amount of data available to users in existing small business bundles, as well as letting SMEs buying one mobile broadband package to get another for half price.

The new bundles, called Broadband 5GB and Broadband 15 GB, increase in-bundle data allowance from 3GB and 7GB to 5GB and 15GB respectively. Additionally, 3 Business is also allowing any small business buying an 18 or 24 month mobile broadband or voice package to buy a second MBB plan at half price. Existing customers wanting to buy a new Business MBB package will also benefit, being given 50% off line rental for the new plan.

The changes will allow 3 Business to continue to provide the best of the internet to the small business user on the move, increasing their productivity and flexibility.

The MBB dongle can also be used in conjunction with the new D100 mobile broadband router. This allows businesses to provide shared wireless broadband without a landline, which can be especially valuable in temporary locations and places where WiFi access is required.

Renato Bottini, head of 3 Business, said: “3 Business has always been focussed on offering small businesses a wide range of communications options at the best possible price. It is especially important in today’s climate for small businesses to be able to work smartly on the go, without paying over the odds.

“With these new offerings we believe we have achieved this goal, providing a service at a price which makes mobile working a reality for small businesses,” he continued.
