Deutsche Telekom launched an upgraded combined fixed-mobile tariff it claims is the first in the market to provide both under one contract with a single bill. MagentaEins Plus provides unlimited data across both parts of the plan, and is being promoted on the flexibility of its conditions and simplicity. DT noted it was its first contract product without a minimum term.
Compared with its previous converged plans, customers can add a greater number of users and extra services, including connections for IoT devices such as dog trackers. As a part of the offer, customers receive at home and on the move either an internet flat rate with speeds up to 100 or up to 250 Mbit/s. EU roaming including Switzerland also comes bundled as well as one gigabyte outside the EU. MagentaEINS Plus is also the first DT product not covered by a minimum contract term.
“In 2014, we set out on a journey with MagentaEINS and now have more than 4.8 million satisfied and extremely loyal customers onboard. MagentaEINS Plus takes that journey forward in a whole new dimension,“ explains Michael Hagspihl, Head of Consumers at Telekom Deutschland.“The first fully integrated product in Germany, with fixed-line and mobile networks in a single contract, offers an even better customer experience with flexible contract terms, unlimited surfing, and many benefits for the community.“
