All Data Plan charges processed by “Student Cells” are
in addition to regular cell phone charges processed by Student
Cells for incoming/outgoing calls, texts, roaming, etc. Data Plan
cannot be sold separately without a regular voice plan: e.g. you cannot get this
plan and subscribe a voice plan with another company.
Data Plans are for use of the Internet on your own personal unlocked phone, or
on a BlackBerry phone rented by Student Cells. Both domestic (in Italy) and
travel (in Europe, outside of Italy) plans are offered. |
|
|
|
This service is targeted for those who need to use their own personal
BlackBerry® phone without subscribing to an expensive international plan. |
|
|
For the use in Italy we have an amazing plan that allows you to use your handset
with unlimited usage and unlimited connection time. The rental of a SIM card for
your BlackBerry® costs 19€ each month (or fraction thereof) and
the service is available nationwide. This subscription service must be paid in
advance for the duration of the SIM rental and the payment with your credit card
must be made when picking up your SIM card with.
Warning: Using the
BlackBerry® Domestic outside of Italy (in Europe) may result in significant
charges. For use outside of Italy, in Europe, the BlackBerry© Travel
plan is offered separately and will result in lower rates. |
|
|
To save on fees while traveling in Europe you need to subscribe to our
BlackBerry© Travel plan. The plan costs just 10€ each month (or
fraction thereof) with an allowance of 10Mb/month, and an extra
usage fee of 3€/Mb. This package allows you to use your phone
almost as you do in Italy. This plan cannot be used with Skype,
but it may be used for all the other applications: Internet browsing, email,
flight search, train timetable, FB (with attention!) etc. Regular cell calls are
billed as in the general voice plan, separate from the data plan. Subscribing to
the “Travel Plan” requires payment at the beginning of the term, in lump sum,
for the duration of rental and must be paid with a credit card.
Warning: This plan is
on top the BlackBerry© Domestic plan and cannot be sold
separately: e.g. you cannot buy this plan unless you subscribe the BlackBerry©
Domestic plan first. |
|
|
|
This service is targeted for those who need to browse and check email using
their own personal smart phone (e.g.: I Phone3, Samsung, Nokia, HTC, Sony, LG,
etc.) without subscribing to an expensive international plan. |
|
|
With this plan you may browse the Internet at a nice speed, check your email
wherever you are in Italy, without worrying about the length of connection or
exceeding the traffic limit. This service must be paid in advance with your
credit card for the duration of the rental at the beginning of the term. The
cost is starting 15€ for the first block of 1GB
used and usually this allowance is plenty big enough for a normal use. If you
were to use more that this quantity you need to buy another block of 1GB
for 12€ that leads the total amount to 27€,
while the third block costs just 10€ and the total cost will be
37€, but none is using so much.

Smartphone Domestic plan outside of Italy (in Europe) without subscribing to the
Smartphone Travel plan may result in significant charges.

travel in Europe outside of Italy, we recommend purchasing the Smartphone
“Travel Plan” to do not incur huge bills.

|
| In order to make you save money when using your Smartphone in Europe, Student Cells offers two different options: Smartphone Travel Small and Smartphone Travel Large.
Warning These plans are on top the Smartphone Domestic plan and cannot be sold separately: e.g. you cannot buy this plan unless you subscribe the Smartphone Domestic plan first.

| Since there are many fraudulent calling cards with false information on rates, we DO NOT recommend the use of any calling card from your cell phone. Doing so is at your own risk and you will be responsible for any charges or problems. If you need to use a calling card, we suggest you do so exclusively from landlines or payphones. For each call made in Italy (excluding SMS messages), 0.10 € is charged upon call answer. A different rate is applied to roaming calls. Costs are calculated in seconds and charged in Euro. |
