EE announce new range of 4G plans

The UK network EE has today announced a new range of price plans which let customers switch between a range of benefits when it suits them.

Going under the title ‘Smart Plan’, these new plans let customers pick between additional roaming locations, a video pass, a music pass, or BT Sports, meaning everyone can have a plan that suits them personally.

Anyone picking the Music pass can stream as much as they like from Deezer, Apple Music or Tidal Music without using up and of their data allowances which is great news for music lovers.

The Video pass works the same way but for video content, and this includes content from Netflix, TV Player, Amazon Prime Video, MTV Trax & BT Sport, and as video uses a lot of data, this will be a great benefit to many.

The BT Sport pass gives you access to loads of sports coverage including the subscription needed, and with even more Premiership football being added this year, this is great to follow your team, and watch the Champions League final shortly.

If you pick the additional countries for roaming then you not only get the free roaming locations everyone else gets, you also get to use in USA, Canada, Mexico, New Zealand which is great if you do a lot of traveling.

There is much more information below in the press release sent out this morning.
