SPECIAL OFFER EXTENDED BY ONE MONTH: ONE THOUSAND FREE MINUTES AND A LINE FOR ONE KORUNA
31.3.2006
Until the end of April 2006, it is possible to get a fixed line for CZK 1 and one thousand minutes of free calling minutes free of charge. Because of its great success among customers who also expressed increased interest in broadband Internet services, ČESKÝ TELECOM has extended this special offer by an entire month.
All customers who order new telephone lines during this special offer will automatically receive 1000 free minutes from ČESKÝ TELECOM. These minutes can be used for calling fixed networks in the Czech Republic, 24 hours a day for the first three months that follow the installation of the line.
Also, customers have the option of using a full range of complementary services: Friends, Call Re-routing, Small Conference, Call Waiting, E-billing, and more.
ČESKÝ TELECOM has made some radical improvements to the parameters of its O2 Internet Expres broadband connection. It quadrupled the connection speed, simplified the rules of its data limits, and made its Fair User Policy more favourable. At the same time, it has maintained existing prices.
Fixed telephone lines and the O2 Internet Expres service can be ordered through the Internet at www.telecom.cz or www.internetexpres.cz, through a toll-free telephone line on 800 111 111, and at Telepoint, Telepoint Partner and Eurotel brand stores.
These days, modern telephones for fixed lines are also of a high quality. In addition to convenience and reliability, they offer many useful functions that surpass those offered by mobile telephones. SMS messages in the fixed network cost only CZK 1; every month customers send approximately 350 000 of them.
