Have you heard the one about the $218 trillion phone bill?

We’re not joking. Back in 2006, a Malaysian man received a bill for 806,400,000,000,000 ringgit, equivalent to $218 trillion – or 87% of the world’s combined financial wealth today.

Or how about the organisation that was hit with a $20,000 bill after it was accused of using 1.3TB of data over 10 days…from one smartphone?

Bear in mind, if you streamed YouTube in 4K resolution constantly over 10 days, you’d use about half that amount.

Now, we’re not trying to vilify phone companies. These examples are noteworthy only because they’re so extraordinarily weird. We’d guess they were mistakes caused by software bugs or simple human error.

But mistakes or not, they hint at something universal. Few of us (we hope) have faced multi-trillion-dollar phone bills, but many of us will have our own horror stories about dealing with mobile providers.

Perhaps you’ve waited for more than an hour to get through to customer services. Or you’ve become hopelessly lost trying to navigate an automated menu. (“I’ve already pressed ‘1’ to continue… 30 chuffing times!”)

It’s bad enough trying to fix problems for your personal mobile device. If you’re managing a fleet of devices for a business, the frustration can become unbearable.

Again, let us stress the point – we’re not saying this is the fault of mobile companies. They have millions of customers to manage. They can’t possibly keep everyone happy all of the time.

However, this is hardly going to be at the forefront of your mind when you have 60 devices to deal with and you’ve been on hold for the last 20 minutes.

Wouldn’t it be simpler if you had a single point of contact who you could reach reliably by phone, text or email? Somebody who keeps up to date with your business, your needs and any ongoing issues? Heck, somebody who remembers your name?

No, we’re not playing “fantasy business benefits”. This is what you get when you purchase business mobile phone plans through Yoozoom. We provide a dedicated account manager so you can skip the queues and get friendly, expert help whenever you need it.

And that’s not all. We’ve thought long and hard about how we can help businesses stay connected without the stress.

Read on to see how we might be able to help you.

I want the freedom to change my mobile hardware and contract term

Long contracts suit personal use. You sign up for, say, a two-year contract, pay a simple, flat rate every month, and get a shiny new device when you renew. Bish bash bosh, that’s your day-to-day mobile needs sorted.

For some businesses though, this kind of arrangement just isn’t flexible enough. The business world is volatile, and firms need to make fast, pre-emptive changes to stay competitive.

The answer? Yoozoom’s Flex SIM deal – our name for our short-contract SIM-only mobile plans.

Sign up for Flex SIM, and you can cancel or change your contract with just 30 days notice. This means you can seek more favourable terms or upgrade your hardware when it suits you.

If you want to stay in your contract but just need more mobile broadband data, just let us know. We’ll be happy to reduce your upgrade your allowance, all the way up to providing unlimited data.

Any hidden charges? If you cancel within the first 24 months, you’ll have to pay a £35 fee. That’s it. And it’s not hidden because we just told you about it.

I don’t have time to seek the best deal for my business

It would be all well and good if your job title was “Mobile Phone Contract Sorter-Outer”, but we’d be willing to wager it isn’t.

The fact of the matter is: we’re all busy. We all have to-do lists that would give War and Peace a run for its money. When “looking for the best phone deal” is one of 4,000 things you have to get done, it’s understandable that it might fall down the back of the proverbial sofa.

Good news. We do have time. Sign up for Yoozoom’s business mobile plan, and our experts will work hard to find you a favourable contract, taking into account your business’s unique needs and circumstances.

“But,” you might be asking yourself, “won’t you just sign us up to your favoured provider, stick a cherry on top and call it a day?”

That’s a good question with an easy answer: no. We don’t have a favoured provider. We’re free to find the best deals for our clients because we’re network agnostic.

Being network agnostic means being completely independent. We have no secretive contracts or special terms in place with mobile providers. The only thing that drives our decision making is meeting your requirements and improving your return on investment.

Plus, if you do have any problems with your contract, we’re here to help sort it out.

I want to protect my devices against damage and breakdown

Sure, mobile companies might offer insurance for your fleet of phones, but this is often restrictive. The policy may only cover devices supplied by the mobile provider, and it might be automatically cancelled if you make too many claims.

It doesn’t take a business guru to realise that these terms are unrealistic. In the real world, it’s impossible to know when a phone will go to hardware heaven. What are you supposed to do if dozens of devices suffer damage in a short timeframe? Just write them off and leave them gathering dust in a drawer because you don’t want to lose access to your insurance policy?

Surprise surprise, we’ve come up with a solution. Our break-fix service plan.

Here’s how it works: you pay one simple cost to cover your whole fleet. If something goes wrong, we’ll collect the device, fix it fast, and deliver it back to you.

Speed is our highest priority. Our engineers work like greased cheetahs so you can get back to business as quickly as possible.

We don’t charge for individual repairs, item collection or delivery. Your one payment covers all of the above and entitles you to unlimited servicing.

Here are just some of the damages covered:

- Screen damage

- Faulty buttons

- Audio issues

- Charging ports and other sockets

- Cameras and lenses

- Batteries

- Housing and framework

- Liquid damage
