Our system of DATA usage (for sending and receiving e-mail and
browsing the WWW) is based on either prepaid data "bonos" or data packs or UNLIMITED data transfer.
When you request an internet device rental from us, you will be asked to
select either the amt. of initial prepaid DATA credit you want which we load into the mobile internet device for you pre-delivery OR our UNLIMITED DATA transfer plan.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPTION 1) UNLIMITED DATA transfer - how it works and how much it costs.
No need to keep track of your
usage, no need to refill the DATA packet when it runs low or runs out. With this plan (you can choose it on our quote/rental request
form) you have no DATA usage limit. The cost
for unlimited data transfer depends upon the length of the rental. The
longer the rental the cheaper the unlimited DATA rate per day.
PLEASE NOTE: with all unlimited
DATA plans, the data transfer is at 3G speeds (MAX. 7.2MBps download
5.7MBps upload) ONLY for the first 1GB of data used (used = sent and/or
received). After the 1GB is reached the transfer speed will drop to
128kbps down and 64kbps up. If you do not want your connection speed to
drop then please consider a few of the prepaid DATA packets instead (see
below.
- UNLIMITED WEEKLY - up to 1
week (7 days) = 49 Euros (7 Euros/day). 1GB at 3G speeds then
unlimited at 128/64kbps.
- UNLIMITED BIWEEKLY - up to 2
weeks (14 days) = 69 Euros (5 Euros/day). 1GB at 3G speeds then
unlimited at 128/64kbps.
- UNLIMITED MONTHLY - up to 1
month (31 days) = 99 Euros (3 Euros/day). 1GB at 3G speeds then
unlimited at 128/64kbps.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OPTION 2) Prepaid DATA packs - how it works and how much it costs.
With our prepaid LIMITED DATA
packets, once your contracted limit of DATA transfer is used (used =
sent and/or received), the unit will cut you off. DATA packets are used in sessions of 250Kb or 10 minutes, whichever comes first.
- This means that each session of DATA transfer is
good for 256 Kbytes or 10 min.
Session |
max. KB |
max. time |
|
256 KB |
10 min |
Each session is a combination of DATA volume transferred and time connected.
When the user (you) closes the session, the system calculates the amt.
of data transferred and the duration (in minutes) of the session.
When you rent a mobile internet device from us, the
available DATA blocks you can have pre-loaded into the unit are as
follow. NOTE: ALL PREPAID LIMITED DATA PACKETS ARE VALID FOR 3 MONTHS
FROM FIRST USE.
| a) BASIC DATA PACKET - up to
250MB (1,000 sessions)
for 39€. |
| b) ADVANCED DATA PACKET - up
to 400MB (1,600 sessions)
for 59€. |
| c) PREMIUM DATA PACKET - up
to 1GB (4,000 sessions)
for 89€. |
| |
|
NOTE: we also offer multiple
premium DATA packets for those who need more than 1GB initial DATA
packet. You can request a multiple GB packet on our quote/rental request
form. |
| |
| And if you need more than 1GB to start with, we can load in multiple GB data packs pre-delivery as well. |
| |
| |
So, here are a few examples to better understand how this
works... |
| |
|
| - |
if you connect for say 10 minutes but use only 150Kb of
DATA, the system will deduct 1 |
| |
session (10 minutes) from the
data pack. |
| - |
if you connect for 10 minutes but use 1MB of data, the
system will deduct 4 |
| |
sessions (256Mb/session) from the data pack. |
| - |
if you connect for 15 minutes and use 500Kb of data, the
system will deduct 2 sessions from the data pack |
| |
(1 session for the
first 10 minutes of connection and 1 for the additional 244Kb of
usage). |
| |

IMPORTANT NOTES: |
| |
|
| - |
If you should run out of the DATA credit, the system will
not let you connect to the WWW and e-mail until you call us |
| |
and request a new
DATA packet (250MB,
400MB or 1GB, see pricing above). It is important to buy another DATA bono when your current
one is running low.
The system will warn you when your DATA bono is running low and
you can buy another from us by calling our customer care number. |
| |
|
| - |
DATA usage is considered ALL incoming and outgoing DATA (downloaded and uploaded). |
| |
|
| - |
It is IMPORTANT that you disconnect from the 3G or GPRS
services when you are finished your usage so |
| |
that the system
does not deduct DATA sessions for DATA "leakage" (small amts. of
DATA that are transferred even when you are not online doing
anything. If you do not disconnect, these small amts. of
"leakage" can add up to large amts. over time. |
