Correction:

At the moment, flatrates can only be added to, or removed from the congstar "postpaid" sims. Without any additional flatrates, postpaid sims charge 19 cents per minute for calls to all networks. Prepaid sims charge 9 cents per minute for calls to all networks.

Flatrates can be cancelled provided notice of the intended cancellation is given at least two weeks before the end of the current monthly flatrate period. Otherwise, the flatrate automatically continues for another month, provided the sim has sufficient funds.

I think that the flatrates can be switched off via the internet, provided the necessary notice period is given. Perhaps someone with a congstar sim can confirm this.

From the 18th March, the T-Mobile, vodafone, O2 and eplus flatrates will each cost 14.99 EUR per month. (At the moment the T-Mobile and vodafone flatrates cost 19.99 EUR per month.)

Flatrate congstar-congstar is 4.99 EUR per month. The flatrate landline tariff (to all german landlines, not just Deutsche Telekom Festnet) costs 9.99 EUR per month.

I have not read anything about "callthrough for from half a cent a minute".

One of the Betamax operators (Dialnow) charges half a cent per minute to landlines in several countries! There are access numbers for many countries including a 0211 number in Germany. See: http://www.dialnow.com/en/accessnumbers.html. The funny thing is that calling other Netzwerke in Germany is excluded from the German flatrate tariffs and is normally charged at something like 15c/min. If you did it via such an option this might cost only 9c/min.

In some countries and on some postpaid tariffs you can nominate a favourite number with free calls! In these cases nominating such an access number can make a lot of sense!!
