Hungarian operator Magyar Telekom has partnered with Fon to launch a free Wi-Fi service for customers called Telekom Wi-Fi Fon. Customers will be able to use the internet outside their homes without any data limits or excess charges, in nearly 2,000 localities in Hungary and some 20 countries worldwide over Fon's Wi-Fi network. Magyar Telekom is establishing what it says is Hungary's largest Wi-Fi network with the help of its home gateways, which will be opened up for shared access by subscribers.
After the launch of the Telekom Fon service, subscribers of the Next XL, Next S, M, Music S, M and XS tariff packages will be granted automatic access to the national Wi-Fi network free of charge. In addition, with the Telekom Fon Premium Service, subscribers of Travel & Surf S, M and L roaming data packages, as well as EU 100 and EU Plusz roaming options will be able to connect free of charge to nearly 20 million Fon hotspots worldwide in 20 countries.
