Consumers seeking mobile broadband access have just hours left to take advantage of an attractive deal on offer at O2.

The internet service provider has been selling its pre-pay mobile broadband dongle at half price, but the promotion ends today (Tuesday December 22nd).

Shoppers seeking last-minute stocking fillers have until the end of trading to buy an O2 dongle for £14.67, before the price reverts back to £29.35.

For consumers keen to have broadband access on the move, but unwilling to commit themselves to a long-term deal, a pre-pay dongle may be the best option.

The O2 device is both Mac and PC-compatible and available on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.

£15 credit provides 3GB access plus unlimited WiFi, while 500MB and unlimited WiFi is available for £2 on the daily deal.

Last week, it was reported that O2 had partnered with Huawei on a trial of super-fast mobile internet services in Slough.
