People who cannot or do not want to pay the price for selected goods at once in cash can now buy a Paegas mobile phone or its accessories too. From the end of March RadioMobil offers instalment sales of all goods in its Paegas brand stores via credit OK Card of the company Multiservis. "Instalment sales extends our customers´ options of how to pay for goods selected," the gazetteer of RadioMobil Tereza Kakosová said.
"Until now our customer could have paid by two ways in Paegas brand stores: in cash or by payment card. At the time when the mobile phone becomes a necessary part of everyday life really everyone can get it thanks to the new way of reimbursement," Tereza Kakosová added. For every new customer can, apart from phones and accessories reimburse even a down payment for activation or roaming. A Paegas mobile phone, which already belonged among the most affordable mobile phones on the Czech market, now becomes accessible to really everyone. The customer can now namely purchase a Paegas mobile phone already for CZK 3 676 (incl. VAT), with the activation fee included in this price (CZK 3675 for the activation fee and CZK 1 for the phone). "Our offer is absolutely unrivalled and no other operator offers a mobile phone for a lower price," Tereza Kakosová remarked. At this moment, the buyer of a mobile phone does not need any cash at all when buying in Paegas brand stores, he pays by OK Card and he/she can start using the new Paegas mobile phone.
Buyers can choose from a wide offer of both subsidized and subsidized phones, and the cheapest subsidized phone can be purchased for CZK 1. More experienced users will certainly appreciate the offer of several subsidized phones that support the WAP technology that allows viewing Internet pages. An overwhelming majority of phones on the offer supports the SIM Toolkit standard and with a banking SIM card the customer can control his/her bank account from every phone via the GSM banking service. Prepaid Paegas Twist services can be also purchased on instalments. The customer can choose from several sets with various phones in prices from CZK 4 499 (incl. VAT). If he/she already has a mobile phone, then he/she needs only a Twist card for 1 399 or a banking Twist card that costs CZK 200 more. "Absolutely everyone will make a choice in Paegas brand stores, because our offer is the widest and unrivalled," Tereza Kakosová remarked.
Present credit Card owners, who already made a purchase using the OK Card, can furthermore choose any goods, price of which exceeds the amount of CZK 500. In that case the only thing needed is to present the OK Card. In case the customer does not own the Card yet, he/she can get it in Paegas stores. However, in this case the Multiservis company requires the value of the first purchase using the OK Card to exceed CZK 3000.
