more updates:
Ja! activaton (to default mobile data plan) - done (24 hours) top up (via phone only!) - done (approx 5+ hours before you see credit online) now trying to activate mobile data flat rate plan (15 / month for 3 Gb) online. Note says that condition to switch is that you have enough credit on your account/card (20 euros now, 5 part of the package, 15 top up). When press OK button - nothing happens. Initial opinion about Ja! - saying politely ... could be better ... Not politely <CENSORED> |

just to avoid confusion - Ja! activation and online access uses Congstar web-site, BUT in it's own area. Congstar prepaid user login/activation and Ja! are different

by the way - it looks like T-Mobile(congsar/Ja!) is blocking Skype.
Skype login is OK, chats are OK, but every time i start a conversation ... in 20-30 seconds half of frames are missing and we can not hear each other ... Tried to take laptop far away from the building, tried some other places, parks, etc - same result. Even skype test doesn't work (same issues). Playing with incomming port number (80/443) doesn't help... Ehhhhhhh .... |

In T-Mobile network VoIP usage is prohibited (if you dont buy a special VoIP package). I dont know if they scan the data and actively disturb the connection.

T-Mobile and Vodafone both block Skype and other VoIP services by actively dropping or delaying packets. E-Plus and O2 both allow Skype and VoIP, however given E-Plus' frequent network congestions O2 (including Lidl and Fonic) is the only reliable option for mobile Skype and VoIP in Germany.

Regarding inquisitors post - you can sign up for a free account at sipgate.de, they deliver a free VPN tunnel app together with their service which will enable you to use VoIP also on T-Mobile/Vodafone. (sipgate team - Hilfe)
