Fonic

In August 2007, Telefónica announced the launch of Fonic in Germany - a new discount SIM-only mobile service which offers calls and texts for just 9 Euro cents on any network at any time without a monthly fee or contract.

Fonic, available online and also through an exclusive sales partnership with supermarket giant Lidl, operates on all German fixed and mobile networks and includes money-back guarantee on credits, easy payment and imposes no minimum charges.

Since its launch, Fonic has caused a sensation on the mobile market by offering the first real flat rate of under 10 cents per minute and SMS in Germany - without charging additional fixed costs like minimum sales or basic fees. A guarantor for success, has been the combination of prepaid and postpaid elements in one rate. Fonic grants favourable prices at full cost control, just like any discounter, and combines it with the comfortable payment by bank collection which customers are used to from premium providers.
