One for everything: O2 my All in One XL
On 5 February, O2 will launch a new tariff for mobile and fixed services: O2 my All in One XL offers a high-speed surfing experience for just EUR 59.99 per month (with a minimum contract period of 24 months). For the mobile surfing experience, the tariff provides a high-speed data volume of 60 GB. When that has been used up, customers can continue surfing without interruption at up to 1 Mbit/s thanks to the O2 keep-surfing guarantee.3) In addition to a national flat-rate for calls and text messages,4) customers with O2 my All in One XL will also receive a full VDSL connection.5) With this, users can surf and stream at home without a volume limit and with download speeds of up to 50 Mbit/s. Customers, who attach importance to higher surfing speeds, have the option to book a 100 Mbit/s connection for an extra EUR 5/month.
“People surf while mobile in the same way as at home. The technology is irrelevant to them. Instead, it is necessary for them to be able to use digital services anytime and anywhere,” said Wolfgang Metze, the board member for retail customers at Telefónica Deutschland. This is also confirmed by a recent study by Telefónica Deutschland. “With our combination packages, we are removing the boundaries between mobile and fixed services. We offer high speed for both networks at a great value for money in one tariff. Our customers receive one bill for this and have a central contact person for all their issues.”
New O2 portfolio: The right tariff for every need
Also new in the portfolio is the O2 Free XL tariff from 5 February 2019, which is available for EUR 59.99/month (with a minimum contract period of 24 months).1) As well as a high-speed data volume of 60 GB, the O2 Free keep-surfing guarantee and a national flat-rate for calls and text messages, flat-rates for calls and text messages in many EU countries are also included here.5), 6)
With the new mobile and convergent O2 portfolio, customers have the choice. Would they like an unlimited mobile high-speed volume? Or is a fixed number of gigabytes per month enough? Is the EU flat-rate important to you because you often make calls with friends and relatives abroad? Or is the O2 Connect option7) important to you so you can operate all your devices with just one tariff? “Our strength lies in clearly recognising the needs of our customers and offering products that fit exactly at the right time. Thus, we are giving all O2 customer freedom in the digital world. And we are frontrunners for customer-oriented solutions on the market,” emphasises Metze.

That is its strategic direction. And its firm promise to its customers. In 2019, the O2 brand will further develop its mobile and DSL products and launch new user-oriented innovations.
