Prague, 1 February 2008 - Effective 4 February, T-Mobile contract customers can buy three new bundles offering favorable prices. The Kredit Pevná+ bundle offers calls to fixed-line networks for only CZK 0.50/min. incl. VAT regardless of the day or time. With Kredit Víkend+, calls within the T-Mobile network made on weekends and public holidays are charged at the same low price of CZK 0.50/min. These two bundles can be activated with any of the T-Mobile credit tariff plans, including Mých5 and Kredit 150. The third new bundle, SMS Víkend+, offers 1,000 free text messages within the T-Mobile network on weekends, and can be activated with all voice tariff plans, both credit and minute-based.
"The Pevná+ and Víkend+ bundles met with great interest among users of minute-based tariff plans. Therefore, we want to offer the same possibility to customers who use credit tariff plans, which are becoming more and more popular," says Martina Kemrová, Senior Head of Corporate Communication at T-Mobile. "SMS Víkend+ is available to all contract customers regardless of whether they are using a minute-based or credit tariff plan. The virtually inexhaustible number of free weekend on-net text messages is certainly worth considering".
Each of the three new bundles costs only CZK 79/month including VAT. They can be activated or deactivated free of charge using the standard T-Mobile channels: customer infoline, My T-Mobile at t-zones, etc. The minimum period of use is one month.
With Kredit Pevná+ and Kredit Víkend+, calls are billed in 30-second increments after a 60-second minimum. With Kredit Pevná+, the favorable rate of CZK 0.50/min. incl. VAT for calls to fixed-line networks applies already to calls made using the credit under the tariff plan. If the customer has other free units relevant to fixed-line networks, such units are used first and then the favorable rate is applied. Other services are charged according to the respective tariff plan used.
A similar principle also applies to Kredit Víkend+, but the favorable price and the priority of other free units, if any, apply to calls made within the T-Mobile network on weekends and public holidays. If the customer has also activated the Girls Talk add-on, the first three minutes are charged at CZK 0.50/min. and the rest of the call is free of charge in line with the Girls Talk pricing rules. In addition, the favorable rate within the T-Mobile network has priority over the rate charged for calls made within the Private Network (so-called VPN).
With SMS Víkend+, free text messages are always the first used over the weekends and public holidays. Unused SMS do not roll over to subsequent billing periods. Text messages sent on business days and text messages sent to other networks on weekends are charged according to the customer's tariff plan.
The Kredit Pevná+ and Kredit Víkend+ bundles are not in any way related to Pevná+ and Víkend+. When switching from a credit plan to a minute-based plan, the bundles are always deactivated and the customer may then activate the appropriate bundle. The same applies when switching from a minute-based plan to a credit plan.
