VIRGIN MOBILE LATIN AMERICA ANNOUNCES THE LAUNCH OF ITS SECOND OPERATION – VIRGIN MOBILE COLOMBIA Per Second Calling Has Early Impact for Virgin Mobile Colombia Bogota, Colombia, May 1, 2013: Virgin Mobile Latin America (VMLA), the regional Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO), has followed up its success in Chile with the launch of Virgin Mobile Colombia. Virgin Mobile Colombia started as a digital beta test, and the response was so great that 35,000 registered online ahead of the official launch on April 30. The early success can be attributed to a proposition that includes (1) flat rate calling by the second, without rounding up to the next minute, (2) data by time with an innovative ON/OFF switch that allows customers to control their usage and expenditures, (3) unlimited Whatsapp with data plans, as well as (4) the exceptional customer service for which Virgin is famous. Richard Branson said, “In addition to the great value of Per Second calling, Virgin Mobile Colombia offers a high level of customer service that is new for Colombia. The team has built the business around treating customers like Rock Stars, and Colombians will be able to get service online and easy access to a care agent. They are ready to shake up the market.” VMLA launched its first operation in Chile mid-2012, where it already has achieved approximately one per cent share of the Chilean mobile market. After success in Chile and Colombia, VMLA will develop new business opportunities across the region and expects to launch its next Virgin Mobile operation in Brasil. VMLA CEO Peter Macnee said, “Our comprehensive research tells us the Colombia mobile market is craving honest, direct customer support, reasonably priced prepaid data services, and to be charged by the second for voice calls. This is a fantastic market, and we are excited to be part of it.” About Virgin Mobile Latin America Inc.
