Following the great success of the Roaming Traveler extra-option for contract customers, COSMOTE Romania announces the promotional extension of this extra-option to prepaid users, who can now use their available national/ international minutes for calls while in roaming, too.
One of the main advantages of this offer is that not only the off-net minutes can be used for roaming calls, but also that users will be charged for outgoing calls only every 30 minutes of calls from countries in Group 1 to countries from Group 1 and Romania (see http://cosmote.ro/en/content.aspx?style=styles&ns=-10000&cid=20441 for the list of these countries) with 0.90 euro credit.
“Roaming Traveler is a preview to the communication in the borderless community and like always, COSMOTE is opening ways for communicating without constraints. COSMOTE users, both contract or prepaid, can now use their off-net minutes to communicate for family or business reasons whenever and almost wherever they travel. At COSMOTE, we encourage people to communicate and feel everywhere they travel close to their homes”, Gabriel Ionita, Senior Manager, Products and Services Development, COSMOTE Romania, said.
Regarding the outgoing calls while in roaming, for prepaid users that do not have national/ international minutes available on their account or for those that have already consumed these minutes, a 0,26 € credit charge per minute will be added to the 0,90 € credit connection fee charged for every 30 minutes of the call. The charge is per minute, for every indivisible minute of the outgoing call.
The incoming calls received when roaming in countries from Group 1 will be charged with 0.
90 € credit for every 15 minutes of a received call.
The promotional period lasts until May 15th 2011 and is available for all COSMOTE roaming voice prepaid customers, no matter if they have an extra-option active on their account.
The Roaming Traveler extra-option can be used only for voice calls initiated or received within countries from Group 1. For all other countries, charging is made according to the tariffs available within the Roaming Avantaj plan
The Roaming Traveler extra-option can be activated for free, anytime, by all COSMOTE voice prepaid customers, including Cartela Frog users.
COSMOTE voice prepaid roaming services are available in 157 countries, through 262 networks.
The tariffs do not include VAT. VAT is applied at the purchase of the recharging value.
