Yell and 3 UK have entered into an agreement which will see Yell.com mobile pre-installed on 3 handsets. New 3 handsets will include a pre-loaded icon link, allowing 3s customers to access Yell.com mobile at the touch of a button.
Yell.com mobile will appear in the applications folder of compatible mobile phones sold by 3 in the UK, allowing consumers to access Yell.coms local business information easily and quickly, from their handset. Key features include the ability to locate any address in the UK by entering a place name, a street name or postcode; the ability for users to share details of any of the 2.3 million businesses available on Yell.com with their contacts, or to save the details directly to the contact list on their handset for future reference; and the ability to view businesses on a map and use turn-by-turn directions
3 customers also have the opportunity to download Yells award winning service, Yell.com mobile maps – which enables walking or driving directions to any address to be displayed directly on a detailed map. Both services are part of Yells suite of free-to-use mobile products and are also compatible with the majority of older 3 handsets.
3s mobile Internet-savvy subscribers are an ideal target audience for us, says David Pearce, Head of Yell.com mobile Product Marketing. They now have instant, free access to local businesses and information via Yell.com mobile, wherever they are.
