AlwaysOnline Wireless Bringing iPad Users in the UK LTE Data by the Hour for Less Than 1p per Megabyte

SEATTLE, WA--(Marketwired - October 03, 2016) - AlwaysOnline Wireless (operated by Otono Networks Inc.) today announced that it will be launching a set of new 4G LTE data plans offering 2-3 times more LTE data in the United Kingdom.

Operating in 48 countries worldwide, AlwaysOnline Wireless (AOW) is known as a leader in providing short-term global LTE data coverage for users of select iPad Wi-Fi + Cellular models.¹ Now residents of the UK can quickly and easily access high-speed 4G LTE coverage right on their iPad across the United Kingdom with a variety of plan lengths to suit all needs.

Combining excellent service for both domestic and international users with flexible, short-term plans will be an exciting new development in the UK mobile industry. AOW is the first carrier in the UK to offer daily and hourly data service. Plans as short as one hour long provide the flexibility and convenience that travellers, commuters, and professionals on the road require in their day-to-day lives without having to enter into new wireless contracts or upgrade an existing monthly wireless plan for their cellular-enabled iPad.

To buy one of AOW's UK plans, customers simply go to the Settings app on their Apple SIM-enabled iPad and choose one of the following options: an hourly plan with 100MB of 4G LTE for $0.49 (£0.37), a daily plan with 500MB of 4G LTE for $5.99 (£4.50), a 1GB plan for $10.99 (£8.26), a 3GB plan for $18.99 (£14.28), and a 5GB plan for $29.99 (£22.55).

"Our new AOW plans for the UK now include 2-3 times more LTE data than what was previously available," explains Emir Aboulhosn, CEO and Founder of Otono. "This increase is to make our plans more appealing to iPad users in the UK, in addition to over 30 million international visitors who visit the UK each year."

At launch, AOW will be promoting a special offer available only for a limited time - 50% off all hourly plans in the UK. With this offer, customers can get 100MB of 4G LTE data for only £0.49 ($0.64 USD) -- working out to half a penny sterling per megabyte of 4G LTE data.
