New abo’s T-Mobile link calling minutes separate from data bundle – update

T-Mobile is planning to introduce subscriptions to introduce where there is no direct relationship between the size of the data bundle and the amount of calling minutes. Reports that an anonymous source Tweakers. In addition, 4g access is included, and there can be unlimited be gesms’t.

The new subscriptions from T-Mobile, which have been revealed by a reliable anonymous source Tweakers and confirmed by the provider, get a modular construction. In the current Smart subscriptions, which by these new subscriptions would be replaced, there is still a direct relationship between the number of call minutes and the size of the data bundle. That relationship disappears.

A subscriber always choose a ‘startabonnement’, that includes unlimited internet with low speed of 64Kbps. Also here is a bundle for consumption abroad – Travel&Surf and unlimited gesms’t. In addition, the user with this basic subscription is bundled with access to the 4g network when it becomes available. This also applies to existing subscriptions.

On top of the startabonnement the new subscriber to a data – and calling bundle to choose. The data bundle is not mandatory: the subscribers can also choose only with the speed of 64Kbps to surf. With a data bundle the speed, however, significantly: with a bundle of 250MB or 500MB users with a speed of 3.6 Mbps download, and the bundles of 1GB, 2GB and 5GB to create a speed of up to 14.4 Mbps possible. If the user his data bundle, the speed is probably reduced to that of the basic subscription is bundled with.

Also a calling bundle is not mandatory: a user is counting down per second, although the first 59 seconds is rounded up to a whole minute. The calling bundle is available in five flavors: 90, 150, 200 and 300 minutes, or an unlimited bundle. T-Mobile also includes a number of standard packages, including a ‘muziekpakket’, ‘iPhone-package’ and an ‘international package’.

It is not yet known what the new subscriptions is going to cost you, but T-Mobile promises on may 1, all the details of the new ‘subscription size’ to make known. Or straight away will go, is still unclear. At some providers, including Hi, and KPN, as well as many Sim Only providers, it is already possible to set the number of minutes of call time and the calling bundle separately to select it.

Update, 18:12: T-Mobile confirms to Tweakers with new subscriptions ‘tailored’ to meet. This information is to the article added.
