Default Debitel Light giving up - 11-12-2006, 14:45

Some news about German "MVNO"s (they are in fact providers and don't have any network structure):

Debitel Light has given up. The costs for customer acquisition were far too high (since unlike some of their competitors they were selling lots of SIM cards in i.e. electronic stores as well) and quite a lot of these new customers never used their SIM cards. Therefore the mother company Debitel has decided to sell Debitel Light to competitor Blau.

All Debitel Light customers will be transfered to the Blau platform, the tariffs are already the same and starting ~February '07 calls between the two groups will be charged at the reduced rate of 0,06€/min too.

The Debitel Light homepage is still online, however when trying to order a new SIM you'll be redirected to Blau.
