The leading operator in Laos, Unitel, has recently refreshed its mobile data plans, making these more attractive than ever.
According to a recent statement from the General Director of Star Telecom (Unitel), Mr. Tran Trung Hung, the telecom company owns the largest mobile network in Laos and has also the biggest customer base with 3.5 million subscribers.
The company is owned by Viettel, one of the largest telecom providers in the world. Viettel is well known for its aggressive pricing policy, which also applies in Laos.
Over the past few weeks, Unitel has launched new mobile data packages with very generous allowances.
Quarterly, Bi-yearly and yearly data packages
Among these new packages, Unitel now offers data plans with longer validity, from 3 months to 12 months.
It is important to mention that none of the mobile operators in Laos offer a rollover feature for unused data. It means that once your package expires, the remaining data volume is lost forever.
These quarterly, bi-yearly, and yearly packages can be interesting for those that do not use data intensively.
The new packages are available to order Online, through Unitel app or via USSD *209#.

Generous monthly data plans
If you are an avid internet user, you would be pleased to know that the new data plans released by Unitel are bigger and cheaper!
These new packages can be very interesting for professionals that are always on the move or simply for recreation use.

Conclusion
With these new plans, Unitel positions itself as the digital leader in Laos. The competitors Lao Telecom, ETL, Best Telecom, and TPLUS have yet to react to these new plans, but we should expect a response in the coming weeks.
