Busiest day for Vodafone's High Speed Network on Thank You Day Thursday, 12 November 2015, 19:28
Whereas the Liking, Pinning or Tweeting are common on the net, saying thank you is new. Vodafone spent the past weeks thanking its customers, with the initiative culminating in a full day of Free mobile internet for everyone. Customers made full use of Vodafone's special Thank You day, celebrated last Monday. This event, which was a first for any telecoms service provider in Malta, saw each and every Vodafone customer enjoying completely free and unlimited mobile data for a full day without even having to ask for it. Customers took full advantage of this offer by downloading more mobile data than ever registered before on the Vodafone network, an increase of over 60% when compared to an average working day. To give some idea, the amount of data downloaded in just this one day was equivalent to 64,000 hours, or 7 years, of You Tube videos. Vodafone confirmed that network performance was stable throughout the day. Amanda Nelson, Vodafone Malta's CEO explained the reasoning behind the event by saying "Having just achieved the 99% population coverage on our 4G network we could think of no better way to celebrate this achievement than by giving each and every one of our customer the

freedom to use unlimited mobile data through our network for a full day, entirely free. We are immensely pleased that this means of saying Thank You seemed to have hit the spot so well judging by the level of response we received." Vodafone prepared intensively for this event and over 100 employees were involved behind the scenes to make this a special day for their customers, from engineers and technicians in Vodafone's Technology Department, to customer service representatives who were ready to assist customers who took advantage of the event to use mobile internet for the first time. Kim Zahra, Systems Engineer, explained "We were looking forward to 9th November for some weeks now. For those of us who work day in and day out to keep our network operating at its best it was so gratifying to be able to thank each and every one of our customers by giving them the chance to use our network to the full and to enjoy all that mobile internet has to offer." Matthew Galea, Networks Engineer, also commented, "This was an opportunity to demonstrate that our network is more than capable of handling all the extra traffic that was generated. We say we have the best network. 9th November gave us the chance to prove it."
