Title: T-Mobile offer international SMS package on PAYG & contract.
Post by: mobaholic on September 29, 2008, 09:54:10 AM

Pay As You Go users of T-mobile are being sent text messages informing them of a new service.  It reads:-

Quote
Keep in touch more often - Get 50 International texts for just £5.  Text INT to 441.  See t-mobile.co.uk/booster for details

10 for international SMS is a good price on Pay As You GO, currently only offered on O2 Pay & Go with the international bolt on I believe.        ;)

However, it is less than impressive that the T-Mobile text informing us of the offer actually gave the wrong URL for details !        ???

The correct URL is:-   this (http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/services/boosters/).        ;)

You navigate from there to either this (http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/services/boosters/payg-international/) for pay as you go, or this (http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/services/boosters/pay-monthly/) for contracts.

It is odd that £5 gets you 50 international SMS on Pay As You Go, but only 30 on contacts.        >:(

Anyone who can explain the commercial logic of this charging structure please post below !        ;D
