TeliaSonera Sweden reduces minute rate for prepaid card

On May 25, TeliaSonera Sweden is reducing the minute rate for its Telia Refill prepaid card in Sweden by almost SEK 1.00 during the day and by SEK 0.11 in the evenings and on weekends. At the same time the service is being renamed Telia Refill “Evenings and Weekends” (Telia Refill “kväll och helg”). During a period, Telia Refill “Round the Clock” (Telia Refill “dygnet runt”) will also be offered, which customers can use to call all networks 24 hours a day at the same rate. The daytime rate for Telia Refill “Evening and Weekends”, for calls to all networks, will be SEK 3.99 per minute, Monday through Friday, 7.00- 19.00. During other hours the rate will be SEK 0.29 per minute for calls made to TeliaSonera Sweden’s fixed network and mobile network, and SEK 1.99 per minute for calls to other networks during corresponding hours. For the average customer in Sweden, Telia Refill “Evenings and Weekends” will be about 7 percent cheaper. “The reduced rates are part of our efforts to constantly increase the price value of our services and increase our competitiveness,” says Indra Åsander, head of the Consumer Segment at TeliaSonera Sweden. “The new Refill prepaid card is based on flexibility and now our Swedish customers can easily switch between our two Refill offerings when it suits them best.” On May 25, customers can also choose the new and temporary offering Telia Refill “Round the Clock” and call for SEK 1.29 per minute – 24 hours a day – to the networks of all operators in Sweden.
