Cellhire launches all new cellhire.com in the US

Big Yellow Workshop

This July saw the launch of the all new cellhire.com US website, offering a new range of mobile products for customers travelling abroad from the US. The new product range focusses on offering a smaller but more flexible selection of voice and data solutions.

Cellhire.com now includes purchase products for voice allowing customers to choose from a phone and SIM or SIM-only solution which covers either international or European destinations. In a departure from the traditional Cellhire rental approach, customers now pay a single fee and keep their devices, SIM cards and numbers. There are no recurring charges and customers only receive a bill for calls when they are made.

The major new addition to the portfolio is a prepaid data offer allowing customers to choose data bundle sizes ranging from 200MB to 1GB from as little as $29, with the additional option of adding a MiFi mobile hotspot device for only $59. Customers can buy data bundles to use in multiple zones around the world including 33 countries in Europe and two further zones, one adding key global destinations to the Europe package and the final zone covering most of the world’s key destinations.

New and existing Cellhire US customers looking for rentals products can still find these products at cellhire.com/rentals where all of Cellhire’s classic rental products covering 100 specific countries around the world are still on offer. The Rentals site has also had a full revamp to reflect the new Cellhire style.

Hints & Tips, Travel

What does data cost in Europe?

Big Yellow Workshop

So you’ve finally booked that holiday of a lifetime to Europe; taking in the history of London, the romance of Paris or the beauty of Spain. You’re going to want to tell all your friends and family back home what you’ve been up to, making them jealous with pictures of Pisa on Facebook or envious of the Eiffel Tower on Twitter. But pictures, tweets and email all use data and data in Europe is really expensive.

Isn’t it?

Not if you take Cellhire’s new Prepaid Data SIM and MiFi. With just one SIM and one pocket-sized MiFi, you can get data anywhere in the world (95 countries if you need it to be exact) at budget-friendly prices and no overage fees. With 3G speeds and wireless connectivity you can have constant access to social media and you don’t even need an unlocked cell phone. This great device even allows you to connect up to 5 separate phones, tablets or laptops so the whole family can connect at the same time. The best part is you only pay for what you use – no rounding up to the nearest MB of data here.

Cellhire cleverly have a budget Europe offer which works across all European countries offering 3G data from just $0.10 per MB. So there’s nothing stopping you making sure that all of your work colleagues know just what a great time you’re having. Should you run out of data, you can easily top it up online. The MiFi and SIM are yours to keep, so next time you travel – maybe to somewhere even more exotic – you can just top up the MiFi and go.

Get your own MiFi for only $59.99 and keep it for every time you go abroad if you need cheap and portable wireless data on the move.
