Internet access no longer limited

  • T-Mobile again extends its range of data services
  • Flat-rate internet access becomes part of the permanent T-Mobile offer
  • Until 3 February, customers can activate flat-rate internet access at a special price that will remain valid for several months

Prague, 16 January 2004 - T-Mobile will offer its customers new opportunities for unlimited access to the internet and WAP via GPRS. Customers who need to be connected very often or permanently will be able to choose from two variants starting on 4 February. The tariff offering unlimited internet access will be available on a separate SIM card or as an addition to the existing tariff plan.

"For a growing number of users, internet connection via a mobile is becoming commonplace or a necessity. To satisfy the needs of such users, we have now decided to further extend our range of data services. Everyone can thus access the internet without being afraid of exceeding any limits and further charges," T-Mobile spokesman Jiří Hájek explains.

GPRS Unlimited
GPRS Unlimited supplements the existing range of GPRS tariffs and customers can activate it on their standard voice tariff*. For the monthly fee of CZK 999, they thus obtain the possibility of unlimited internet and WAP access irrespective of the length of time and volume of data transmitted.

Monthly fee CZK 999
GPRS Internet/Intranet CZK 0 /MB
GPRS WAP CZK 0 /kB
* Tariff 20 Start, Tariff 80, Tariff 200 and Tariff 400 including their variants with the HIT add-on, tariffs 20+20, Student, TeamCall, Data&SMS and the Partner cards.


Tariff Data Unlimited
The new Tariff Data Unlimited is a suitable solution for users who need to have one SIM card exclusively, or almost exclusively, for data transmissions, as they will obtain another, separate SIM card when activating the new tariff. For the monthly fee of CZK 999, customers will obtain unlimited internet access without having to pay any extra fees. All customers can thus activate the Tariff Data Unlimited irrespective of whether and which service they use to make calls.

"We first presented this attractive offer to our customers in early December. Since then, the number of GPRS Business users has grown by more than five times. Comparing the total volume of data traffic in our network, data traffic at peak times has increased to about eight times the value of the previous period," Jiří Hájek adds.
