Globalgig expands its roaming MiFi coverage into more Englishspeaking countries plus Sweden and Denmark

More good new for anyone that likes to buy their overseas data in bulk. Voiamo’s Globalgig service is making good on its promise of worldwide domination expansion, announcing deals with carriers in Ireland, Hong Kong, Sweden and Denmark. The company has also detailed a 18-month deal that will net users the typically $119 MiFi for free, with the same per-month pricing as its off-contract setup. Monthly charges start at a (now reduced) $17 for a gig of data, moving up to 10GB for $80 a month. Our overseas editors will be putting Globalgig’s MiFi through its paces at Expand in a few weeks time.

Globalgig Roaming Service Introduced

Voiamo has just introduced Globalgig, which is a brand new roaming service which will allow those who tend to travel a whole lot enjoy data on the move without being left to the mercy of free Wi-Fi hotspots. For starters, Globalgig will allow road warriors to suck up to 5GB of data via a monthly contract, and this is assuming you pick up a $119 MiFi dongle along the way. At this point in time, Globalgig’s reach will only be available if you happen to be performing your roaming around in the US, UK and Australia, where this is made possible via the company’s Sprint, O2 and Optus partners, respectively.

Voiamo did mention that they intend to expand to “key Asian, European Union markets, and other large global travel hubs” in the coming year, and one will be able enjoy 1GB of data for $25, 3GB for $39 and 5GB for $49 each month. These contracts will run month-to-month, and you have the option to cancel anytime with 48 hours notice. Not too shabby, don’t you think so?

However, the company has promised it’ll expand to “key Asian, European Union markets, and other large global travel hubs” in the next 12 months, bringing 1GB of data for $25, 3GB for $39 and 5GB for $49 per month. Contracts will run month-to-month, and you’ll be able to cancel anytime with 48 hours notice, according to Voiamo.
