    Thank you for your reply (please don’t take it the wrong way) but NO, I’m not adding another application (as with instant messaging, the aim is to keep SMS/RCS + 1 other to a minimum).

    So since Mail Basic at 2.90 doesn’t seem very useful (no advertising but I use much more application than webmail which has advertising) because no immediate synchronisation Swisscom contact & calendar with e.g. Google phone or other, I can continue as now (free mail light I’m only at 30% of the maximum because I delete old useless mail and don’t need several mail addresses).

    That is to say priority agenda and Google contact that works with phone and instant messaging and when rarely new contact, I double on Swisscom contact.

    I don’t know if you could take just 2~3 months mail basic by paying to test and then remove if not very useful.

    Thanks to all!

        PTT So I want fibre (and Router 5) and I was thinking of going to M (1gb). I’ve been told that there’s hardly any difference between M and L.(1gb, 10gb) But will I feel any difference between S and M?

        For your information, to receive an IB5pro, you need to have the ‘L’ subscription. With an ‘S’ or ‘M’ subscription, you’ll receive Internet Box 4."

              The free routers are actually only available for new customers, otherwise as an existing customer for the IB5 pro currently CHF 149.

              The situation is a little different if the current router is older than an IB3, because then the existing router has to be replaced anyway to switch to an XGS-PON connection and then the new customer router allocation rules would also apply to existing customers.

                  Doremi are you sure? you can also buy the IB 5 Pro with an existing Internet S and M with a discount of 200.

                  There writes JanineZ:

                  With the blue Internet L subscription on fibre, you will receive the new Internet Box 5 Pro worth CHF 349 as a gift. Anyone who orders another Internet subscription on fibre will continue to receive the Internet Box 4. *Existing customers with a subscription on fibre can buy the Internet Box 5 Pro with a loyalty discount of CHF 200 for CHF 149.

                  The sentence “Existing customers with a fibre optic subscription can buy the Internet Box 5 Pro with a loyalty discount of CHF 200 for CHF 149. ” leaves room for speculation. Is the IB 5 Pro free if you switch from copper to fibre with Internet L?

                  Depending on how long the minimum contract period is, I would think carefully about what is more worthwhile.

                  Internet L is 10 more expensive than Internet M

                  With a minimum contract period of 12 months, that’s 120.
                  With a minimum contract period of 24 months, that’s 240.

                  Internet M is usually absolutely sufficient for private use. So why should you pay 240 when you can also buy the box with Internet M for 149?

                  I would also always recommend changing the technology in the shop. You may be able to get a discount for the contract extension.
                  Back then I got the IB 4 for free and on top of that there was a 6 month 70 discount.

                  @JanineZ
                  Can you shed some more light on this? Does the copper customer get an Internetbox 5 Pro for free when they switch to fibre optic if they take blue Internet L?

                      Absolutely right. Someone in my family, a customer for years with an Internet-Box 2 (IB2), received an Internet-Box 4 (IB4) free of charge with an “M” subscription when the fibre was recently switched on. However, our request for an Internet-Box 5 Pro (IB5 Pro) was turned down, and we were not offered the chance to buy it at a reduced price.

                        I’ve now discovered that it’s possible to buy the router for CHF 149, as @“Werner” says in my customer area. However, when a member of my family requested one, the answer was negative. What’s more, at the end of December 2024, I can’t remember whether there was a discount or an opportunity to buy.

                        In fact, I reminded @PTT that the new router he wanted was not free. If Swisscom provides one free of charge, it will be an IB4, unless Swisscom has changed the rules.

                            [unknown] right! But she offered me, who likes to have the latest equipment, the 5 with a discount. And so I would go with fibre to the Internet M according to the advice above.

                            Hello MirkoP yes the discount is already clear so far.

                            I’m interested in what the copper customer gets when he switches from copper to glass technology?
                            Does the copper customer then also count as a new customer? Or would the copper customer have to pay the IB5 if he absolutely wants it?

                                Your calendar is excellent!

                                I’d tried several, many of them. But none of them gave me exactly what I wanted.

                                I installed yours on my iPad, on my iPhone: brilliant 🤩! On my Mac, it’s fine, but nothing more. At first I made a mistake because there was onecalendar and one calendar. And I’d downloaded the wrong one. But I’ve corrected it.

                                Thanks again.

                                    I even installed this One Calendar for some older users and they are very enthusiastic, it just takes a little time at the beginning to set the different names and colours.

                                    Anyway, be it Windows, Apple or Android it just works, I invested the Fr. 10.- for the full version myself.

                                    ***It is also available for Windows in the Microsoft Store.

                                        I paid the 6.- frs required for the iPhone and iPad together. That way I can access all the settings. But for the Mac version, I downloaded it from the Apple store and there was no charge.
