Telecom has passed the milestone of 100,000 customers on its new XT mobile network and today launched a special incentive for iPhone users to join the movement and bring their device to XT.
Customers connecting an iPhone 3GS to the XT network, and taking up a 24 month One Rate 180 plan ($79.95) will receive a $600 account credit plus 240MB of free data a month for 2 years.
With local site www.apple.co.nz/store now offering iPhones directly to customers, they no longer need to deal with other mobile providers for their phone – they can order it directly and bring it onto the XT network. Customers moving to XT are also able to keep their existing phone number including the 021 prefix.
New Zealand’s newest mobile network also passed the 100,000 customer mark last week after just over 5 weeks of operation.
Crumbs! Telecom is really pushing out some impressive stats and info on its recent launch – and throwing a certain iPhone update in the mix isn’t going to hurt their numbers either!
