Ewan, “all pay monthly customers” may be a bit broad. We small business Vodafone customers seem to be left behind. I am on a small business 300 plan – I get great call rates, roaming with passport, low international rates BUT I have to pay �15/month to get just 20MB of mobile internet.

And, I pay �15/month for my VF 3G data card and get 3GB! Why do handset business data users get slugged for mobile internet?

On another (pre-paid) test phone I get 15MB/day for �1 of 120MB or �7.50 per month with the add-on. But for business users – we've been stuck with the same, boring internet data plans for 18 months.

Perhaps the deal will eventually spread to business plans. Generally I spend between �300 and �500 per month as a business user (I travel a lot so data roaming makes the bill higher), but get no relief on the UK data for my handset……

Hopefully the small business plan product manager in Newbury will receive a copy of this from the forums team – or perhaps Ewan can go into bat with a longer article/opinion piece on this.

Ah. So 'Unlimited' now means 500MB. Glad that's clear.

Do I hear 250? 200?
