Help in English: Can't change tariff for prepaid Telekom SIM card
3 years ago
Hello Telekom support.
I have purchased a prepaid SIM card 2 years ago (in Germany) and only used it back then for a few months.
Now I want to use it again (mainly for data, while traveling in EU). The problem is that the Magenta mobile app doesn't let me choose/change the data option.
I topped up 15€ and then tried to book a 3GB data package, but it doesn't let me choose and restricts me to a single option (day flat)
Can you please help? I have also attached 2 screenshots.
My phone number is already in my user profile.
Thanks in advance.

Hello @Masgari
According to your screenshot, you only have €8.30 in credit. That is not enough to book other data options.

No additional data plan is required for the Magenta Mobil XL. This tariff already includes a telephone and data flat rate.

Your tariff is a MagentaMobil Prepaid XL with 5 GByte included data volume.
If you want to change to the (new) MagentaMobil Prepaid M with 3 GByte data volume then there will be a downgrade fee of 5 Euro. And there will be the new regular fee of 10 Euro that will be charged immediately after the tariff change.
Hence you need at least 15 Euro in your prepaid account in order to do the downgrade.
Possibly the downgrade is only possible once this package has expired

Only if at the beginning of the 4 week period your prepaid account is sufficient for deducting the fee.
If the prepaid account is not sufficient then the prepaid system will look every day whether the amount is sufficient for the remaining part of the period.
E.g. if the fee for the tariff for 4 weeks is 25 Euro and you have only 12,50 Euro in your prepaid account, then for the first 14 days the activation of the package will fail.
However on day 15 the 12,50 Euro will be sufficient and the prepaid system hence will activate the package for the remaining 14 days (and bring your prepaid account down to zero).
