Orange is UK's number one for mobile broadband

Orange has been rated the top provider for overall mobile broadband quality for the second time, according to a survey by independent research company YouGov.  Orange achieved the number one position in both quality and value for money, while customers have also rated Orange’s mobile broadband service top in nine out of 15 categories, including ease of use, staying connected and overall network coverage.

Orange offers a variety of mobile broadband and connected laptop offers in the UK, and earlier this year, took steps to provide consumers with greater control over their mobile broadband usage by launching new software that alerts them when they are approaching their usage threshold. What’s more, Orange also introduced an automatic monthly bill cap, so that all Orange mobile broadband customers are not charged more than an extra £40 a month if they accidentally go over their monthly data allowance whilst using their dongle in the UK.

Orange is also continuing to invest in its network for voice and data as part of its commitment to evolve the company’s offering and give customers consistent quality – quality of network, products, service and experience. Orange’s 3G mobile network covers more people in the UK than any other, and is currently the focus of a recently launched multimillion advertising campaign entitled ‘You’re Covered’.
