Beat bullying with the Bemilo mobile network
How old were you when you owned your first mobile phone? With the average age for a first mobile phone purchase being just 8 years old and with 85% of 7 to 16 year olds owning a handset, there are now more children than ever who have access to a phone. Though owning a phone can offer a child protection and easy contact, it can also open up the risks of late nights, expensive phone bills, cyberbullying and viewing inappropriate web content. As a parent, have you ever wanted a way to protect your child whilst they’re using their mobile phone? With the recently announced Bemilo network exclusive to e2save, you can ensure your child is protected from bullying and not suffering with smartphone addiction.
Monitor your childs mobile activity
Bemilo is a safety focused mobile network that is specifically designed for children and managed by parents. This new network allows parents to control who their children can contact and also who can contact them. It’s a great way to have peace of mind whilst your child is using their phone, as you are kept aware of what content they are looking at. The Bemilo network allows parents to also control their children’s monthly spend – which I’m sure no parent would complain about! Similar to a mobile usage app, parents are able to monitor how much their child’s phone is being used, allowing them to take action. In terms of safety, parents can also control the time of day their children can use their phone and when they browse the internet. Children are always able to call their parents though, even if they run out of credit which is extremely useful if there was an emergency.
Beat bullying with the Bemilo network
Bullies can also be blocked at the flick of a switch, which again helps parents to protect their children further. The number of young phone users receiving threatening or abusive text messages is currently at 26%, which is quite high. Cyberbulling is more of a serious issue and one that can be prevented with the Bemilo network. Parents can even read their children’s text messages from their computer if they think their child is being bullied. This feature is not intended for parents to spy on their children but instead it helps parents to assist their children and know how to stop text messages that may be harmful before any bullying gets serious.
Overall, the Bemilo network is a great new initiative to beat bullying as well as for parents to monitor their children’s phone usage. Bemilo launches on 28th May 2012 and we’re excited to see how it will help children have a safer and protected mobile phone experience. Exclusive to e2save we’ll keep you informed of the latest Bemilo network deals and child mobile offers.
