Swisscom : Use multiple devices with one subscription

Swisscom's inOne combines everything in one flexible package: mobile, Internet, telephone and TV from CHF 120.-/mth (inOne S); adapt it to your needs - for instance by adding mobiles in the same household. Coinciding with today's sales launch, inOne customers can also opt for the new 'Multi Device'. It lets subscribers use their mobile line on up to three devices at the same time with the same phone number, on a combination of smartphones, tablets or smartwatches with SIM cards, for instance. All three devices remain online always everywhere. Calls ring out on all devices - customers can take them on any device they like. They can also make calls while surfing on a tablet with their smartwatch still connected to the Internet. Multi Device sets Swisscom apart from the crowd as comparable products do not support same-time use. Swisscom also takes an innovative approach to setup: once inserted, the SIM card automatically launches the activation dialogue in the browser and seconds later the second or third device is online.

Smartphone and tablet are just the beginning

As Dirk Wierzbitzki, Head of Products and Group Executive Board member explains: 'Very many of our customers already use several mobile devices. And a growing number of everyday items nowadays have their own SIM card - from smartwatches and electric bikes and cars. 'Multi Device lets our customers make the most of these new opportunities right from the start without breaking the bank.' Cost security even covers use abroad as the roaming allowance covers all connected devices. The first additional device comes free with inOne mobile L and XL. A further additional device costs CHF 5.- monthly. For the lower-cost inOne mobile subscriptions, the additional monthly costs are CHF 10.- for one additional device and CHF 15.- for two. Multi Device is only available combined with inOne (also inOne XTRA mobile and inOne SME mobile). Along with the previously launched eSIM and the ongoing expansion of the mobile network, Multi Device is a key building block in the development of the Internet of Things. Seamless support of several devices in one subscription highlights Swisscom's innovation leadership in these areas.
