Picture the scene.
You are a chairman of a Premier League club about to play away at Stamford Bridge, home of the Champions, Chelsea. One of the biggest games of the season.
The only problem (and a nice problem to have…) – you are stuck on holiday on your private yacht on the idyllic Adriatic Coast.
This was the dilemma facing Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish earlier this season. Determined to see the match and without too much pre-match planning, the Eagles chairman ended up spending an estimated £4,000 streaming the match through his phone, as he explained to The Guardian:
“The game was on Croatian television but the only way I could get it on the box was to stream it off my phone. I probably spent the thick end of four grand on my 3G. I’m waiting for the bill now and it’ll be a ridiculous amount, but worth every penny. It was a brilliant picture, too. Perfectly clear. It was like being there. Honest.”
Palace won the match 2-1, and so the chairman probably did not mind spending the money so much, but there is a cheaper way, Steve, for your next visit to Croatia. A simple solution that will also allow your family to play games, surf or watch movies on their phones while you watch your beloved Eagles. For a saving of £3,993.
With a free delivery and return service, a little planning would have had the RoamFree Ninja personal wifi hotspot on the yacht, offering unlimited internet at 21.5 mbps for just 8.95 euro per day, quite a saving. And with the ability to connect to ten devices simultaneously, there would be plenty of online fun to be had by family and crew at the same time, as well as streaming of all the other Premier League action.
RoamFree Ninja is bringing an affordable online solution for clients demanding the very best quality Internet wherever they are in Croatia. For more information about how it all works, check out our homepage.
