Mobal Announces New Ways for US Travelers to Avoid “Bill Shock” and Stay Connected While Traveling Abroad

NEW YORK, NY — (Marketwired) — 11/06/13 — , provider of convenient, practical mobile phone packages with handsets, smartphones and SIM cards, announced several new offers for new and existing customers that will help save them time, money and headaches this holiday travel season, including:

Enabling US travelers to save up to 75 percent over their existing mobile carriers when making calls in Europe, with new rates as low as $0.42 per minute when they purchase a $100 call bundle.

Extending a special offer to the 1,500+ customers of the recently closed international data package provider. For a limited time, Mobal is offering free data-only SIM cards and free shipping to travelers who replace their DOODAD SIM with a comparable Mobal SIM.

According to an FCC survey, 30 million Americans, or one in six wireless users, have experienced “bill shock,” or a sudden, unexpected increase in their wireless bills as a result of data usage or international travel fees. For those who rely on their mobile phones for business, the average cost of their monthly data roaming bill shock was $1,089, according to a 2012 Mobile Workforce Report.

“Unfortunately, many Americans assume that their only choice is to spend hours on the phone with mobile carriers working out a deal. Then, too often they still run the risk of exceeding data plans while abroad and facing dreaded bill shock,” said Jared Owen, chief marketing officer of Mobal. “The world phone eliminates these headaches. It-s shipped to your home, and guaranteed to work as reliably as your everyday phone in countries across the world — at a fraction of the cost. And in today-s always-on, hyper-connected age, we are less willing to -unplug- while on holiday vacations, as we rely on our cell phones for communication and information, such as directions, translations, etc.”

Mobal never routes calls through a third party or callback services. Because of this, it can offer quality, reliability and connection speeds on par with the service travelers expect from their regular mobile carriers. Mobal is also the only world phone provider that does not charge a monthly fee or require users to pre-pay for minutes.

With the purchase of a Mobal world phone or SIM card, customers have the same phone number on every trip for the life of the phone. And with the recently introduced new lower rates in Europe, Mobal now offers the most competitive packages currently on the market for US travelers. Because Mobal never requires monthly fees or pre-payment, customers are able to pay only for the minutes they use.
