All you need to know about Total Control Value plan

$

0

What is Total Control Value plan?
Total Control Value offers the best features of a prepaid top up plan with those of a pay monthly plan.  In fact, that is why it is called a hybrid plan.
Hybrid plans are ideal for customers who want to benefit from the best smartphones, internet on their mobile and a great calling rate but prefer to have the control of topping up and never running a high bill.
Melita offers Total Control Value as a Hybrid Plan and we offer it with free handset with 24 months contract.

How does a Hybrid plan work?
The plan allows you to set a limit on the maximum amount that you would like to spend every month (€20). This amount is automatically topped into your bonus account every 15th of the month and you can use it as you please.
Once this amount runs out you will then need to top up by voucher or online. This means that you will never receive a bill higher than the maximum monthly amount you set.

How does the Double Top-up offer for Total Control Value work?
Once you top-up over and above your 15th of the month top-up, this top-up goes into the main account.  The Double Top-up offer awards the customer double the amount topped up.  The free monthly credit awarded goes into a bonus account which has a 30 day time window.  You can make local calls, SMS and data usage from this free monthly credit.

If I already have a handset and I don’t need a new one, do I have that option?
Yes.  You can opt to take the no handset option and you will be awarded with an additional free monthly credit (€5) on the 15th of the month.

When will the free data bundle be assigned?
The free data bundle will be assigned on the 15th of the month along with the €25 monthly top-up and is valid for 30 days (up to 14th of the following month).

What happens if I consume the free data bundle?
If the data bundle is consumed before the new bundle is assigned on the 15th, then you would be charged at the standard data rate of 10c per MB.

What happens if I consume the free SMS bundle?
If the SMS bundle is consumed before the new bundle is assigned on the 15th, then you would be charged at the standard SMS rate of 2c per SMS.

If I am a Freedom Pack customer, can I subscribe to Total Control?
Yes, you would need to visit a retail outlet or authorised reseller. In this case, you would be migrated to Total Control Value and the current 2 year agreement would be terminated (the standard termination rates apply). You will not lose your credit balance when migrating to Total Control.
Important to note: You will no longer have a fixed line. If you still want a fixed line you need to subscribe to the fixed line telephony service for €9.99 per month.

How can I subscribe to Total Control Value plan?
Whether you are a new or an existing Melita mobile customer, you can visit any retail outlet or authorized reseller and apply for this tariff plan.
If you are an existing prepaid customer will not lose your credit balance when migrating to a Total Control tariff plan.

Can I check my credit balance?
You can check your credit balance by pressing *121# and then press the call button.

Can I subscribe to any daily or weekly Pre-paid Data Bundles?
No, you cannot purchase any of the Prepaid Data Bundles available. With Total Control Value plan you will be awarded with 500MB every 15th of the month.  Any usage over and above would be charged at 10c per MB.

Can I purchase an SMS bundle?
No, you cannot purchase an SMS bundle.  With Total Control Value plan you will be awarded with 100 Free SMS every 15th of the month.  Any usage over and above this free bundle would be charged at 2c per SMS.

Can I make an Interational Call/SMS on this plan?
Yes, you can make an international Call / SMS, at the standard prepaid rates. The charges will be deducted from the monthly credit awarded on the 15th of the month and from any additional top-up you have made. The free monthly credit as part of the Double Top-up offer cannot be used to make international calls and / or SMS.

Can I roam whilst being on the Total Control plan?
Yes, you can still roam on this tariff plan. The same prepaid roaming rates and destinations apply. We recommend that you top up before going abroad since incoming calls are chargeable whilst roaming. Remember that any unused monthly credit is rolled over to the following month so you don’t lose any credit and you will minimise the risk of running out of credit whilst you are abroad. The free credit awarded through the Double Top-up offer cannot be used for roaming.

Can I give a donation or make a call to premium numbers?
Yes you can, however, you would need to top-up with additional credit which goes into the main account.  This top-up will award you with the Double Top-up offer.

What happens if I do not use the monthly credit?
Don’t worry, any unused monthly credit will not be lost and will roll-over to the next month.
