o.Tel.o is again because, as prepaid the rumors already few map circulated weeks ago – now it’s official: Vodafone revives the brand o.tel.o again new and tried under the name to place a new prepaid discount stores in the network of Vodafone. Similar had been T-Mobile with the new brand, Congstar successfully. The new brand, the advantage is that you can offer discount prices without damaging the image of Vodafone as a premium brand. However some discount stores that appeal to price-conscious customers with Allmobil or also BILDmobil Vodafone network already exists. The new tariff by o.tel.o makes no challenge here but joins with the broad front of the 9 cent discount store. Customers of o.tel.o telephone card for 9 cents a minute in all German networks. 30 selected foreign networks are also for 9 cents a minute. SMS cost only 9 cents and the data minute is charged also with 9 cents.
