Shanghai Mobile Offers 3-in-1 Bundle to Tietong Customers
Dongfang Daily, 9/17/09
Shanghai Mobile, after introducing a "mobile + fixed-line + broadband" bundled package, now has over 1,000 residential broadband subscribers.
Shanghai Mobile recently began offering the package to existing China Tietong broadband subscribers, allowing them to combine the service with Shanghai Mobile's family calling plan. The package offers competitive broadband pricing, with subscribers receiving unlimited time on a 1 Mbps connection for a basic monthly fee of RMB 128, as well as free local calls between family members. RMB 47 of the fee is prepaid calling credit to be shared by all family members, meaning residential subscribers pay RMB 81 per month for 1 Mbps broadband, comparatively cheaper than previous packages. Users can also add fixed-line service or upgrade broadband to 2Mbps for an additional RMB 10. To be eligible for the package, however, subscribers must not only be China Tietong broadband customers but also subscribe to Shanghai Mobile's postpaid GoTone service, the price of which is not included in the basic monthly fee.
