LG HelloVision "Get Up to 8,800 KRW Discount on Budget Phone Plans"

[Asia Economy Reporter Koo Chae-eun] LG HelloVision is conducting a ‘Lifetime Discount Promotion’ for six popular Hello Mobile device plans. From the 13th until the end of May, customers who subscribe to the eligible plans through the Hello Mobile Direct Mall will receive a monthly discount of up to 8,800 KRW for the entire subscription period.

The ‘Lifetime Discount Promotion’ applies to six steady-seller Hello Mobile device plans that reflect diverse customer needs. The lineup consists of ▲ two unlimited data plans (Bopyeon Anshim 15GB 100 minutes, Slim Anshim 15GB) ▲ two cost-effective plans (Bopyeon 3.5GB 100 minutes, The Basichan 3GB) ▲ two unlimited voice plans (The Chakan Data 3.6GB, The Chakan Data 2GB).

For data heavy users, the ‘two unlimited data plans’ lineup with a lifetime monthly discount of 8,800 KRW is ideal. At a monthly price of 47,300 KRW, which is 16% cheaper than before, users can enjoy virtually unlimited data (15GB + 3Mbps speed control). Given the recent surge in mobile content consumption due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this plan is expected to be a practical option for reducing communication expenses.

For those planning to cut communication costs, the ‘two cost-effective plans’ lineup with a lifetime monthly discount of 4,400 KRW is recommended. For example, the LG Uplus network’s ‘Bopyeon 3.5GB 100 minutes’ plan offers a reasonable 3.5GB of data for 28,600 KRW per month. Additionally, when using affiliated credit cards (Hyundai Card, Lotte Card), customers can receive up to an additional 20,000 KRW discount depending on the previous month’s spending, lowering the monthly communication cost to as low as 8,600 KRW.

Targeting office workers with high call volumes, the ‘two unlimited voice plans’ lineup also offers a lifetime monthly discount of 4,400 KRW. When subscribing to the KT network’s ‘The Chakan Data 2GB’ plan, users can freely use voice and text services at a reasonable monthly price of 34,600 KRW. The 2GB data allowance is sufficient for work-related web surfing and social media use.

When combined with the lifetime discount eligible plans, smartphone device prices can be reduced to ‘0 KRW’. Popular models such as the ▲ high-end premium phone ‘LG G8 ThinkQ’ and ▲ cost-effective mid-range phone ‘Galaxy A50’ can be used for free with maximum subsidies. Woo Sang-young, head of LG HelloVision’s Mobile Business Group, stated, “This promotion was prepared to expand customer benefits from USIM-centered plans to device plans and to strengthen the competitiveness of MVNOs.” He added, “We will continue to return the savings from distribution and marketing costs through the Direct Mall as practical benefits throughout the customer’s mobile life cycle.”
