Win a Samsung Galaxy S3 with Mobiflock in July

One lucky subscriber to Mobiflock’s parental control service for smartphones – Mobiflock My Child – will win a Samsung Galaxy S3, the hottest new Android smartphone. To win, customers need to subscribe to Mobiflock My Child for a year before the end of July 2012.
 
Mobiflock My Child, gives parents visibility over their child’s mobile device use and the ability to protect them from harm, either through discussing potentially dangerous activity with their child or by blocking certain contacts, content and activities. Parents can block or limit access to the web and mobile applications; can limit phone use via a timetable; locate the child or phone if they go missing; and lock or delete a stolen phone.
 
A web dashboard allows parents to manage all the phones they are protecting with Mobiflock My Child. The app works on Android smartphones and tablets, BlackBerrys and Nokia Symbian smartphones. Mobiflock’s mobile parental control services work across all networks, as well as both wifi and mobile data connections.
 
Mobiflock’s customers say:
 
“Mobiflock has made it possible for me to allow my 11-year-old to have a mobile. We were looking for something to control the use of her phone (for financial as well as safety reasons), but until now hadn't found something that is appropriate. Mobiflock met and exceeded our expectations.” Yodalam, Kidspot.com.au
 
“Your service has made it possible for me to give my daughter the phone of her dreams while keeping her safe. This is truly a priceless thing and I am so very appreciative. I’ll be happily spreading the word about Mobiflock!!!” - Shannon S (USA)
 
“This application has given me the opportunity to give my child another chance but monitoring as we go. Wake up people… it is a tool that you can use or not use but kids will push boundaries and I would rather know what is going on and not bury my head in the sand.” Mckagy
 
To stand a chance of winning the Samsung Galaxy S3 moms and dads simply need to purchase a $25, one-year subscription to Mobiflock by the end of the month. For an added bonus of an additional year subscription, customers should refer five friends via the “Win” tab on the Mobiflock Facebook page: www.facebook.com/mobiflock.
