Don’t forget free WiFi in most UK McDonalds


Don't forget free WiFi in most UK McDonalds
This poster is advertised at Liverpool Street Station as people come out of the underground (‘the subway’). I like seeing proprietors advertising free WiFi – I think it’s a boon for many. I actually filled out a survey with the McDonalds system, powered by The Cloud – I congratulated them for launching the service and pointed out that they’d earned perhaps a tenner from me in a week (a few cokes) that I wouldn’t otherwise have given to McDonalds were it not for the WiFi service.??Has anyone else tried the service out? If you’re ever in a bind and need wireless, think McDonalds… I’m luvin’ it!

  1. Friends don't let friends eat junk 😉

    That tenner would have purchased you a 1GB handybag of anywhere, anytime data from your friendly local MNO shop.

    Hast thou not a dongle? Mobile industry schwagman, heal thyself!

  2. I've tried it at their outlet in Reading's Oracle and it was quick and easy to get online and the speeds were great. Watched funny animal clips with my nephew whilst we ate. ;o)

  3. Yeh, used it, although I already use the cloud so not essentially free for me – i use the £6.99 a month cloud account.

    Good idea though and sure to make them dosh in the long run.
