Pay as you go arrives on rightmobilephone.co.uk

Right Mobile Phone announce the launch of their new pay as you go module, visitors can now compare pay as you go handsets from over fifteen online retailers.

In addition to the comprehensive mobile comparison engine launched earlier this month visitors can now compare  both contract and pay as you go offers from over 15 networks and dealers in the UK.

The simple layout is a joy to use and with pay as you go partners such as Phones4u, Mobiles.co.uk, Vodafone, Tesco, Woolworths, O2 and Carphonewarehouse the pay as you go options are comprehensive and highlights clearly who is the cheapest in the market within a couple of clicks.

The announcement comes on the sites growing popularity with mobile consumers who are turning to the comparison engine to locate and compare mobile phone deals.

James Zielinski (Director) said, PAYG accounts for 60% of the current mobile market so it was always in our plans to introduce these offers to the engine which gives our users even more scope to review the offers available to them.

Neil McHugh (Marketing Director) added, our users had indicated the lack of PAYG comparisons and by working alongside our partners we have delivered in a timely manner for the expected interest around the Christmas period in the pay as you go products.

The sites popularity continues to grow at a time where consumer confidence is low after the latest cashback fiascos which resulted in the collapse of Phoneboxdirect, Coolnewmobile and Phones2yourdoor, reports suggest this left 39,000 customers out of pocket.

Neil McHugh (Marketing Director) said this is a situation where we feel we are becoming a valuable resource for consumers not only by comparing offers in the market but also being transparent about the total cost of contracts over the period which can often be hidden behind various incentives or cashback offers, Neil added we aim to provide as much information as necessary to support users in making an informed decision.

TRG now have partnership agreements in place with all of the leading mobile brands and hope to announce these and further plans in the New Year that will enhance the service even more for users in 2008.

TRG announce www.rightmobilephone.co.uk

TRG Online Ltd has announced the beta release v1 of their mobile phone comparison and review search engine www.rightmobilephone.co.uk

The site will provide consumers the ability to instantly compare mobile phone offers from all the major networks and dealers in the UK, in addition it also offers mobile reviews and ratings of handsets provided by the site’s users.

Visitors will have over a dozen search methods to access and compare real time mobile contracts, pay as you go and sim free offers from over 15 networks and dealers such as Vodafone, O2, Orange, e2save, Phones4u and Carphone Warehouse to name a few.

James Zielinski (Director) said, our research revealed consumers are often confused about which provider or contract is most suitable and cost effective over the contract term. Our engine will allow users to search on criteria important to them such as monthly budget, model, contract length, free minutes, free gifts and most importantly the total cost to the consumer over the contract period which can often be hidden behind cash back, free gift and free line rental incentives.

The service will also draw on user experiences and hopes to create a community feel by offering users the ability to post their handsets reviews in terms of features, usability and design, providing overall ratings for each handset.

Neil McHugh (Director) added, we are very excited about the concept and feel it will be of real value to the consumer in a marketplace that has become both saturated and confusing.  Signing up to a 12 or 18 month contract is a long term financial commitment and our service with the support of our partners will simply focus on saving consumers time and money.

It is estimated 40 million people in the UK now own a mobile phone, but many are unlikely to be on the most competitive tariff in relation to their usage, this is because the process of buying a mobile phone is so confusing. There are simply so many different handsets, networks, deals and cross network call costs to consider that buying the “right mobile phone” for your usage and budget can be very difficult.

TRG’s UK launch has already attracted a number of high profile partners who are embracing the growing comparison model that has been so successful in Finance, Insurance and Travel.

James Cartlidge (e2save) said, we look forward to working with TRG. Buying a contract phone in today’s environment presents the customer with numerous choices on what to buy and where to buy from. We welcome TRG’s technology to present the customer with a simple route to purchase.

Justine Goldstraw,  Online Marketing Manager (Vodafone) added, we are delighted to have Right Mobile Phone as an online partner and welcome the opportunity to list our portfolio of products and services on the comparison platform.
