Isle of Man Businesses: Ensure Seamless Communication for US Travels with VOLTE Upgrade
If your business frequently sends colleagues or executives to the United States from the Isle of Man, there's a crucial update you need to be aware of regarding mobile phone services. As of now, 2G and 3G networks in the US have been phased out, meaning traditional voice services on your current plan won't function without an upgrade. But don't worry – ensuring uninterrupted communication for your team in the US is both essential and entirely free!
Why Does Your Business Need This Upgrade?
The transition away from 2G and 3G networks in the US means that traditional voice and text services, which relied on these networks, won't operate as usual. Instead, 4G networks will now handle voice and text services. To ensure seamless communication for your travelling colleagues, it's imperative to upgrade your mobile plan to support Voice over LTE (VOLTE).
What Does This Upgrade Entail?
The VOLTE upgrade is a straightforward bolt-on to your existing Pay Monthly or Pay as You Go service. This ensures that your team's phones can utilise 4G networks for voice and text services while in the US. The upgrade can be applied remotely to your service, eliminating the need for store visits. Simply get in touch with us, and we'll handle the rest.
Is It Universally Available?
In principle, yes. The VOLTE upgrade is available to all our business customers. However, there are considerations regarding device compatibility. Certain devices may not support the upgrade, so it's crucial to check with us to confirm compatibility. While we're actively working with manufacturers to ensure broader compatibility, some devices may still require updates.
Cost of the Upgrade?
Great news – the VOLTE upgrade is completely free for our business customers.
How Can Your Business Obtain the Upgrade?

We'll handle the rest, ensuring that your business's mobile plans are upgraded remotely and your team's phones are ready for their US travels.
