Your Safest Plan

Monday, May 18th, 2009

Today we launched the latest feature from our maths laboratory: the safest plan badge!

We always try to recommend the best plan to our users, and we do take into account that your usage will change from month to month, but it’s not always clear how much room a plan gives you to make extra calls. Calling outside your allowance can end up very expensive, so we decided to mark out the safest plan.

We put the safest plan marker on whichever plan provides you with the most room in its allowances to make up for those extra calls that you can’t predict. It won’t always be the cheapest plan, but it might be the best choice.

The floodgates are open

Oh, wow, BillMonitor is public!  It’s been busy here at the Optimor offices but I’m proud to announce that our public beta is now ready for your consumption.

We’ve got plenty of exciting features for you to check out:

  • Automatic bill monitoring – we’ll analyse your phone bill and show you exactly how you could save.
  • Self assessment – estimate your own usage and we’ll tell you which mobile tariff is best for you.
  • Graphs help you to understand exactly how you use your phone.
  • Over 48 thousand combinations of tariffs and bundles available.

Of course, if you were one of the lucky ones who saw the alpha, none of that will be new to you. Here’s the new bits that’ll blow you away:

  • Select from over 200 handsets and jump straight through to the operator websites to purchase the tariff of your choice.
  • Personalised results pages give you the information that matters.
  • SIM only plans – more plans for us means better results for you.
  • Region support – travel around Europe a lot?  That’s cool, we can handle that.
