Aug 27, 2009
O2 NA!VÍC prepaid card customers can now surf the internet right on their mobile phones. As one of the benefits of O2 NA!VÍC they can activate the Internet on Your Mobile service for CZK 20 with VAT per week from September 1, 2009. At the same time, all new O2 karta customers with the O2 NA!PIŠTE or O2 NA!HLAS tariffs can get up to CZK 1,000 bonus credit because the offer of 100% bonus credit for recharging has been prolonged until the end of September.
"Customers of prepaid services want to have their costs for telecommunications services under complete control. Therefore, we are providing them with internet on their mobiles for an unrivalled low price and enabling them to go online wherever and whenever they want. In addition to inexpensive internet, O2 NA!VÍC customers can enjoy the benefits of prepaid O2 NA!VÍC tariffs, including calling and sending SMS messages to O2 mobile numbers on weekends for just CZK 0.50," says Adrian Garrett, Marketing Director for Prepaid Services.
Customers can activate Internet on Your Mobile by sending an SMS with the keyword INT to the phone number 999 111 after they have recharged their credit with at least CZK 300. They can then use the internet on their phones for a period of four weeks. With every additional recharge of at least CZK 300, the customer can change their benefit free of charge or they can keep their existing one. Other benefits include: weekend calling to O2 mobile numbers for CZK 0.50 per minute, evening calling to O2 mobile numbers for CZK 0.50 per minute, and texting to O2 mobile numbers on weekends for CZK 0.50 per SMS. If the customer does not recharge the required amount, they can use the Internet on Your Mobile service for CZK 40 with VAT per week.
Everybody who purchases a new prepaid card with the O2 NA!PIŠTE or O2 NA!HLAS tariffs by September 30, 2009 gets a special bonus of 100% additional credit. With a single recharge of at least CZK 300, they then get not only one of four benefits, but also 100% additional credit. The bonus does not apply to content services, audiotext services, and the use of premium-rate numbers.
