T-Mobile are one of the UK’s leading mobile operators. They have been providing portable Internet for a while now and offer one of the UK’s best services. If you purchase a UK mobile broadband service from T-Mobile it will come with something called content lock.

Content lock was produced as a result of the potential for under eighteens to be able to access inappropriate content on the web. It is an extremely sophisticated tool that will restrict sensitive material on the net and is automatically applied to all T-Mobile phones and USB dongles for no charge. It is a great option if you want to provide Internet access for a child.

The content lock will block access to any web based content that is for over eighteen year olds or is not moderated. This could include information relating to Gambling, dating, adult. It will also block areas such as chat rooms and social networking sites. These are blocked as they are often unmoderated.

The good news is that content lock can be applied or removed at your preference. You just need to be over 18 to authorise the removal of the lock. There are a number of ways to remove the lock. To remove it, just visit a restricted site and it will ask you to enter your credit card details to verify your age. Alternatively, if you call 1818 from a T-Mobile phone, it can be removed. The other option is to go into a T-Mobile store and bring your contract and proof of age such as passport and they will remove it for you.

As well as removing content lock, you can also apply it again if you dial 1818 from a T-Mobile phone or if you go into a store.

This is a great option for T-Mobile to offer it’s customers and can give parents or guardians piece of mind. It places the offering as on of the best mobile broadband services available in the UK.
