Internet service provider Vodafone has turned to the national media to promote its latest business mobile broadband deals.

The firm has advertised its pay monthly dongle deals in the Metro newspaper, informing potential customers of the options available to those seeking web access on the move.

Among the special offers available include reduced fees for the first three months on Vodafone's Ultimate, Premium and Standard mobile broadband deals.

Vodafone Ultimate offers a free dongle, 5GB of usage, PC protection and 20GB of backup for £10 per month for the first three months on a two-year contract, rising to £25 thereafter.

The Premium deal, which offers 4GB of usage, is priced at £7.50 for the first three months, rising to £20, while the Standard 3GB deal initially costs £5 per month, before reverting to £15.

Last month, Vodafone teamed up with Birmingham City Council to offer free access to mobile broadband services for schoolchildren in the city.

The broadband provider helped fund the provision of web-enabled laptops to 450 under-privileged pupils.
