China Telecom releases 2019 action plan to increase speed and reduce fees

Telecom will continue to actively implement national policies and launch seven new measures to benefit the people and enterprises:

1. Reduce the price of out-of-package traffic. In response to users' concerns about high out-of-package traffic charges, in January 2019, China Telecom reduced the out-of-package traffic charges to no more than 0.03 yuan/MB, with the reduction of out-of-package traffic charges reaching 90%, ensuring that users are informed, dare to use, and feel at ease.

2. Launch a more favorable "data package for worry-free use after reaching the quota". For users of the Enjoy Package who have high saturation or overflow of package traffic, China Telecom will launch the "data package for worry-free use after reaching the quota" in June 2019. After the user subscribes, there is no charge if the user does not reach the quota. After reaching the quota, the 5 yuan/GB or 3 yuan/GB data package can be directly added, eliminating the worries of mobile Internet users with large traffic.

3. Launch preferential data packages for Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. China Telecom will launch more preferential roaming data packages for people traveling to Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan in June 2019, such as 68 yuan/3 days. For Guangdong users who frequently travel to the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, a Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao integrated data package will be launched, and users can share data in the three places.

4. Promote the "Worry-Free Card" package. For users who do not like to be bound by packages and want simple consumption, China Telecom has launched the "Worry-Free Card" package nationwide with a "floor price", tiered billing, and cheaper prices the more you use it.

5. Reduce the communication costs of small and medium-sized enterprises. In May 2019, China Telecom reduced the standard Internet dedicated line charges by 15% and simultaneously launched the "Speed ​​Up and Benefit Enterprises" campaign for small and medium-sized enterprises, providing free speed up services to small and medium-sized enterprises.

6. Improve distance education and medical networks. Launch education and medical network products with wide coverage, high quality and high cost performance, carry out the Digital Campus Tianyi Tour, assist schools in networking, and increase the broadband network access speed of primary and secondary schools to more than 100 Mbps.

7. Active reminders for package consumption. Actively inform users of package consumption via text messages, with a focus on timely reminders of package usage, usage period, consumption bills, etc., so that users can clearly understand their consumption.

【This time, China Telecom's speed-up and fee-reduction campaign is not only aimed at individual users, but also reduces the dedicated line fees for small and medium-sized enterprises by 15%, giving a considerable discount, becoming another positive action to implement my country's general policy of speed-up and fee-reduction. 】
