Phone company EE has today launched its superfast 4G technology in Dewsbury, Pontefract and Huddersfield.

The firm runs the Orange and T-Mobile networks, as well as the newer EE network.

Now people on those networks will be able to get mobile internet speeds five times faster than the 3G speeds available before.

EE regional manager John McEvoy said: “The expansion of 4G mobile broadband services in West Yorkshire is a great benefit to local businesses and residents who will be able to do more on the move with the arrival of these higher speeds.

“We’ve been investing in launching 4G and in improving our existing 2G and 3G services across the region, and I’m delighted that we’re switching on today in Huddersfield, Pontefract and Dewsbury.”
