AldiTalk waives roaming cost in EU starting with march 3rd

[inquisitor]

No, actually I don't know. But to be on the safe side I've registered the one SIM card that I've already sold to a fellow forum member on the home network (eplus). On that occassion I've also disabled the voice mailbox as I've described it here.

By the way you folks might find it interesting that, although not officially documented, AldiTalk can be recharged by bank transfer to the following bank account:
receipient: E-Plus Mobilfunk GmbH & Co.KG
IBAN: DE07 3004 0000 0121 7900 01
BIC: COBADEFFXXX
bank: Commerzbank Düsseldorf
reference: 015751234567 (your Aldi telephone number)

Although no modification of the list is expected, there is however at this moment no official confirmation that Switzerland will stay in the list. While all EU operators are obliged to respect the EU price caps for Liechtenstein, Norway and Iceland, there is no such obligation for Switzerland.

To the EU caps of € 0.24/min and € 0.19/min one has to add the VAT of the country in which the operator is resident. In the case of Alditalk 19%. That is why currently they charge € 0.28/min. From July on they will have to lower it to 0.22/min or less.

At the moment Alditalk 7 day 60 minute EU package is only valid for outgoing calls to Germany (Enthalten sind: abgehende Gespräche aus dem EU-Ausland nach Deutschland und ankommende Gespräche im EU-Ausland): http://www.aldi-nord.de/print/aldita...er_2013_10.pdf . The charging interval within the package is 60/60 instead of 30/1 without the package.

In the 7 day 60 MB data package the charging interval currently is 100kB instead of 1 kB without the package.

The wording in the SMS regarding the 120 minute package is quite different. We will have to wait for the official statement.

when will the official statement be released?

At the very bottom of page 19, there is a reference to notes 3 and 4 on page 31.

4. Enthalten sind: abgehende Gespräche aus dem EU-/EWR-Ausland zzgl Schweiz in die EU-/EWR-Staaten zzgl. Schweiz Ankommende
Gespräche im EU-Ausland sind kostenlos.

4. Included [in the EU 120 "Voice Packet" option]: out-going calls from EU/EEA countries plus Switzerland to EU/EEA countries plus Switzerland. Incoming calls are free in EU countries.

[fsotirop]

the EU 120min. package has 1minute rounding billing?

[dg7feq]

yes, rounding by minute

[Donal]

EU 120 "Voice Packet" option, page 19: Jede angefangene Gesprächsminute wird unabhängig von ihrer tatsächlichen Dauer stets voll berechnet (Minutentakt).

Calls are measured in units of full minutes.

[fsotirop]

many thanks.

so the EU 120min. package can be used for calls to other EU countries also, not only for calls back to Germany.

[dg7feq]

yes in all EU countries + switzerland...
