Deutsche Telekom's new "Travel & Surf" data roaming options, available to new and existing customers from July 1, give users full control over costs and a real boost to the holiday fund.

Travel & Surf gives customers full control over their data roaming costs when abroad and protects them from any nasty surprises when they receive their bill. What's more, prices have been drastically cut in all three groups of countries. One MB of data in country zone 1 now only costs around EUR 0.19 when a 10 MB day pass is booked, for example. With the 50 MB pass, it's only around EUR 0.10.

Simple and customer-friendly Upon arrival in the foreign country and having logged into the local mobile network, the customer receives a text message giving the option of booking a pass. The pass can then be bought either directly by text message or via a browser link. The browser is then opened on a page that informs the customer very clearly about the rates on offer. Billed like a parking meter Once the customer has used up the data volume of the day pass, the Internet session is interrupted and the customer can simply book an extension to the pass via the Internet site or by text message. The customer is sent a warning text message once 80 percent of the volume has been used up. The passes are billed in the same way as parking meters (24 hrs, 7x24 hrs) once the pass has been purchased. All passes can be used with smartphones and cell phones as well as with laptops, notebooks and tablets.

For all new and existing customers The Travel & Surf is pre-configured for new customers. Existing customers can book the new data roaming option free of charge within Germany via all sales channels. The option should be booked a maximum of 24 hours before the customer plans to use/book a pass. The following passes are available: Country zone 1: EU plus Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, Lichtenstein, Croatia.
