Unite the Union

About Unite the Union

Unite the Union is Britain's biggest union with 1.42 million members in every type of workplace. Unite is a democratic and campaigning union fighting back for workers, it is taking trade unionism out to millions of unorganised workers, and standing up for equality for all.

Unite had two business mobile contracts in place on different networks, each with a different tariff arrangement and neither was cost-effective.

In addition, a mixture of different handsets and devices were being used that weren’t designed to work with how the business's needs were developing. This resulted in increased running costs and a heavy failure rate of the original devices leading to a downturn in productivity and impacting on budgets.

Since forming the revised tariff offer and streamlining under one network, we have managed to reduce the combined monthly costs by more than £10k a month. This has assisted in strengthening and securing a long-term relationship and allowed us to provide additional value-added services from the Focus portfolio of products.

"Focus have been integral to Unite in our transition to smartphone technology, which has allowed Unite to operate a more mobile workforce."
