Financial Services Companies moving to Telecom26 for highly-secure global mobile data connectivity

5 November 2024

Providing global mobile data connectivity to organisations that employ people who travel around the world for work is one of Telecom26’s core services. They need quality and always-on connectivity wherever they are in the world on highly secure networks.

Using local Wi-Fi, buying local SIMs on arrival or relying on the service of a domestic MNO are all outdated – and costly - approaches for picking up emails, calls, messaging and accessing the internet and intranets.

In addition, security is a big issue for most organisations which is why it’s also a priority for Telecom26. We’ve recently added Threema’s secure messaging service to our portfolio of global mobile data connectivity services.

This was in response to requests from current customers who value the privacy of their team and need the highest levels of data protection for their devices – but don’t want to use consumer messaging platforms like WhatsApp, Telegram and Signal.  You can read more about why your team should be switching to Threema here.

Ocorian moves to Telecom26 for global mobile data connectivity

Telecom26 is now providing our Enterprise Data Extra global mobile data connectivity service to the staff of Ocorian, a financial services company with 1500 employees across 20+ offices around the world.

Like many global organisations, Ocorian’s employees had been using the roaming service of their domestic operator or buying packages from travel SIM companies when they were away for work. Both options were expensive and often accompanied by poor coverage, unreliable speeds and minimal to no customer service.

Moving to Enterprise Data Extra has been a game-changer for Ocorian.  But you don’t need to take our word for it…Here’s what Owen Jones, Infrastructure Programme Manager at Ocorian, has to say:

“Moving to Telecom26’s service has been a big win for everyone at Ocorian.  The eSIMs are very easy to download and then automatically activate when users arrive in a different country. Knowing that they will have connectivity is a great relief for our business travellers. All of the Telecom26 team have been very helpful, supportive and responsive. Many thanks to Telecom26 for the outstanding service.”

Large bank chooses Telecom26’s eSIMs and global mobile data connectivity service

Hundreds of the bank’s employees travel regularly to meet clients and visit the bank’s offices spread across 90 countries. Their connectivity for remote data access was previously provided through MiFi devices and the data roaming offering of two Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) in the bank’s home country, as well as Google Fi, an MVNO offering from Google.

Unfortunately, this approach created a number of problems including high roaming charges, limited network coverage, and slow data down/uploads. It was also impossible to change SIM profiles so that usage, and costs, could be controlled.

After an extensive evaluation of its options, the bank chose Telecom26 as its global mobile data connectivity provider with coverage being provided through Telecom26’s eSIMs.

Hundreds of the bank’s employees have now installed Telecom26’s global eSIM profiles onto their Apple and Android devices and are receiving an always-on, high quality global mobile data connectivity service which they can use to create personal hotspots.

They no longer need to worry about patchy coverage, switching SIM cards to find a stronger network, using multiple devices or finding a wifi hotspot.

The bank’s employees can continue to use the service of their home operator and switch to Telecom26’s service when they are roaming.  There is no porting, no migration and no disruption to the services they already have. They simply switch profiles when roaming. 

For the bank, bill shock from excessive roaming charges has been eliminated.  A single price has been agreed to cover all data usage and the bank now has one point of contact and one set of SLAs for its global connectivity.  All transactions are detailed and provided on a single bill.

Eliminating the need to physically send out SIM cards has also saved time and costs.
