\"How<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We\u2019re working hard behind the scenes to make your Mobal service even better! We want to keep you in the loop and be as transparent as possible, so here are a few projects that our development team have been working on recently.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How We\u2019re Making It Easier To Track Your Data Use<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Right now, it\u2019s more important than ever to make sure you\u2019ve got enough data. While we\u2019re all relying on our phones to keep us connected to loved ones who me may not be able to have any physical contact with, we all need to avoid any nasty surprises, like your monthly allowance running out. That\u2019s why we\u2019re using this time to try and put more of the power over your data use back into your hands.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As you may have already noticed, we\u2019ve introduced text alerts to let you know when you\u2019re nearing the limit of your monthly allowance. That means it should never come as a nasty shock if you run out of fast data. Instead, you\u2019ll have time to either slow down your data use, or log into your Mobal MyAccount to easily add extra data to keep you going until the next month rolls around.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Speaking of which, we\u2019re giving you much more control over your plan and added data, too. Previously, you could add one extra GB during the month, and choose to upgrade your plan starting on the 1st of the next month. Now, you can add as much data as you want during the current month, and from July, if you upgrade your plan, it\u2019ll start immediately!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What Else?<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

A New and Improved MyAccount<\/span><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

We\u2019re going to make your MyAccount easier to use! We\u2019re taking a \u2018mobile first\u2019 approach to the design, so it\u2019ll be super easy to make changes to your plan, see your bills and much more, right from your phone. We\u2019ll also soon be making it possible to look up your data usage within your MyAccount for the first time, so you\u2019ll be able to keep track of how much you have left for the month.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Easier Activations<\/span><\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

We\u2019ve recently expanded the hours that we\u2019re able to activate new SIMs in Japan, meaning that more of you will be able to get online quicker! Our activations now take place between the hours of 8am & 10pm (Japan time) – and take just minutes to be processed.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Need Some Help?<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re experiencing economic hardship during the COVID-19 crisis and you\u2019re struggling to pay your bill, we want to help however we can. If you think you may find it difficult to make your usual payment, please don\u2019t hesitate to get in touch<\/a> with our Support team, and we\u2019ll discuss how we might be able to assist you.<\/span><\/p>\n
