Registration of SIM cards in Poland

Upon arrival in Poland, you can purchase a starter pack both in small shops and in mobile phone stores and household appliances stores. There are often queues in the salons of mobile communications.

In 2016, Poland passed the Law on Countering Terrorism, which introduced compulsory registration SIM cards purchased in Poland.

To register the card, you will need a passport or other identification document.

You can register your phone in mobile phone stores, in post offices, in large supermarkets of household appliances. The whole procedure takes 5-10 minutes. Your data is entered into the database, then you receive an SMS with a code that you need to tell the employee - that's it.

For a child under 13 years old, a parent or guardian can register the card. To do this, you must provide the relevant documents and write an application. After the child reaches the age of 13, the SIM card can be re-registered to him.

This is a real (not virtual) operator originally from Germany. It would be correct to say that T-Mobile is a large holding (a group of companies subordinate to a single manager in the person of Deutsche Telekom) working in the field of communications.

The brand is represented almost all over the world and is engaged not only in cellular networks, but also wired internet, telephony and many other profile areas of the market. In the context of our material, it is the mobile (cellular) services of T-Mobile on the territory of Poland that are interesting.

Before proceeding directly to tariffs and packages, let us recall that the virtual one, which we talked about in detail earlier, is one of the forms of providing T-Mobile services on the Polish market. Therefore, many services of both operators, implying work "within the network", apply to both T-Mobile and Heya.

Where to buy the T-Mobile Starter Pack?

It is not difficult to find a starter package for this operator, like any of its competitors. Cards can usually be purchased:

In special sales offices in shopping centers.
Representative offices of the company.
In stores selling home appliances and primarily mobile phones.
At dealers.
At the newsstands.
At the post office.

Polish legislation requires mandatory identification of the SIM card holder. Without it, no T-Mobile (or other carrier) phone will work.

How to register and activate a T-Mobile SIM card?

You can register a new SIM card at any point of sale, except, perhaps, newspaper stalls. If the card was purchased there, you need to go to any of the official offices or points of sale and make free activation... To do this, you only need a passport or other identity card (Pole's card, residency card, etc.).

You can also move a SIM card previously owned by one of the competitors to this operator. For this, T-Mobile offers bonus - 30 days of free use his services. You can go to the operator on this page of the official website.

Now you need to activate the SIM card. In most cases, it is enough to make a call for the tariff / card to become active.

The need to send various codes, words, numbers (for example, until recently it was necessary to send the word "SO" to the operator) has now disappeared.

Tariffs of the mobile operator T-Mobile in Poland

Let us briefly recall what tariffs and packages are, and what is the difference between them.

Rate- these are some conditions for using your phone / SIM card, laid down initially and acting constantly. The tariff is subject to change.

Plastic bag Is a set of services that can be purchased additionally. They can be one-time, designed for several cycles, or acting constantly. At the end of the package, you can connect any other or not connect any, continuing to use the phone according to the tariff.

For example, 300 Mb per day of traffic are provided according to the tariff. By using it, the client can purchase a package for additional traffic... However, before connecting packages, changing tariffs, etc., you need to buy a SIM card and register it.

Tariffs are a fluid phenomenon. The cost of minutes, megabytes and other parameters change quite often for marketing and other reasons. The rates presented below are valid at the time of publication of the article. We will try to keep them up to date.

Before dialing the number of the transition to a particular tariff, make sure on the official website of the operator in its validity.

25 PLN for 30 days

This is one of the most popular tariffs, however, perhaps the fact is that the other two appeared relatively recently.

All tariffs include service inside Poland... We will tell you about the cost of services in roaming below.

25 + 5 PLN for 30 days

The tariff is in many ways similar to the previous one, but for 5 additional zlotys, a whole range of advantages opens up.

The tariff added unlimited MMS, as well as unlimited video viewing on the sites of a certain list. Since the next tariff also implies the same services, we will describe the list of free sites in more detail below.

5 PLN for 5 days

According to the list of services, the tariff resembles the previous one. The main difference is that it is activated for 5 days.

Among other things, all tariffs assume the duration of the accounts for 365 days.

Promotion from T-Mobile

The last two tariffs involve watching a free video. The following services are participating in this promotion:

Amazon Prime Video.
Chili Cinema.
Filmy Google Play.
Netflix.
Player.
Showmax.
TVP Sport.
TVP Stream.
TVP VOD.
Vevo.
VoD.pl.
WP Pilot / Videostar.
Wyborcza.pl.
Youtube.

The playback speed depends on the quality of the coverage at the viewing location.

Profitable packages of unlimited communication

There are three subscription options for enhanced communication. You can switch to these tariffs both for old customers and when activating the "starter".

You need to understand:

The parameters of call minutes, SMS and MMS, indicated below, apply to Poland and roaming in the EU equally.
Internet traffic is indicated exclusively for Poland (see roaming parameters below).
The contract is concluded / extended for 24 months.

You can activate packages in offices, points of sale or through your personal account on the website / in the mobile application. To go online, you must have an account (register on the site).

Roaming in EU countries

Despite the adoption of laws on the abolition of roaming in the European Union, operators still continue to indicate a different number of services for domestic and foreign use.

The exact data on the cost of roaming can be found on the operator's website. For example, this link will open the prices for Ukraine. There you can also change the country to any other and get acquainted with the prices.

However, two of the three above tariffs ("25 to 30" and "25 + 5 to 30") already include some conditions for intra-European roaming:

100 minutes (both incoming and outgoing minutes are counted).
50 SMS.
500 megabytes of traffic.

Upon their completion, as well as for the "5 to 5" tariff, the following prices apply:

0.04 pln per minute of outgoing call.
0.01 pln per minute of incoming call.
0.01 pln per SMS.
0.01 pln per MMS.
PLN 14.91 per 1GB of internet traffic.

All these parameters are already included in tariff plans and additional order do not require.

Special offer for Ukrainians

At the moment, there are two packages, activation of which will allow you to save money on calls to Ukrainian operators. Please note that the offer is interesting specifically for calls, since sending SMS will be equal to 1-2 minutes of the package.

All letters in SMS are Latin, large. We will lead to an error writing in Cyrillic.

How to order internet additionally?

In the specified tariffs, calls and SMS are provided without restrictions. In two of the three unlimited and MMS. Accordingly, there is no need to increase their number.

Additional packages for Internet traffic may be relevant:

Volume (Poland / EU)	Cost, pln	Term, days	Activation code
1 / 0.64 GB	10	30	140702#
2 / 0.97 GB	15	30	140703#
3 / 0.64 GB	10	10	140704#
3 / 1.29 GB	20	30	140705#
5 / 1.93 GB	30	60	140706#
12 / 3.22 GB	50	60	140707#
25 / 6.44 GB	100	120	140708#

These and other services can be connected both through your personal account, by registering on the operator's website, and through the automatic menu, which must be called up by pressing the combination *104# .

How do I find my number?

To find out whether your number is activated (registered), dial *100# - you will receive an SMS with all registration information, including a phone number, current tariff, etc.

How to call the operator?

To contact technical support (" Hot line») Type:

From your mobile T-Mobile: * 9602.
From another number within Poland: 602 960 200.
From abroad: +48 602 960 200.

The above numbers are used for technical matters. Problems with the financial component of relations with the operator are solved by these phones:

Through the dedicated website doladowania.t-mobile.pl.
In your personal account "Mój T-Mobile".
In T-Mobile sales offices.
Buying coupons in stores, kiosks, stalls, at gas stations.
At ATMs.
Through internet banking.
With the help of Bitcoin.

Of course, many methods overlap: for example, to pay through the above site, you can use by credit card etc.

Useful codes

The operator stopped publishing various access codes to information on the site, rightly believing that the personal account data is more than enough.

We will recall a few old codes, however their performance is not guaranteed, and services may be paid.

How to check balance on T-Mobile?

The account was checked earlier using the code *101# ... The data came by SMS. Funds were withheld for the service according to the tariff.

How to connect to the Internet?

This question is often asked by our readers, however, modern tariffs are sold already with activated functions, incl. and internet connection. It is enough to register the card and you can use it. If there is not enough traffic, they purchase additional packages, which are described above.

Please note that the inoperability of the Internet may not be associated with the need for activation, but with incorrect / missing phone settings.

How to find out the rest of the Internet traffic (megabytes)?

By analogy with checking the balance, the rest of the traffic was previously checked with a special code. it *100*860*1# ... However, it is currently recommended to check the parameters through "My T-Mobile".

Conclusion

T-Mobile is one of the leading players in the Polish mobile market. Having their own shortcomings, the operator's tariffs provide a lot of additional conveniences. When choosing a cellular provider, be sure to compare all the available offers and connect the one that turns out to be the most interesting.

Despite the fact that the only major manufacturer supplying to Russian market smartphones based on MS Smartphone platform (Windows Mobile 2003 for Smartphones) is Motorola (in fact, representing Chi Mei products), the main global supplier of such products is HTC, which produces, in addition to PDAs, a full range of smartphones and communicators based on Microsoft OS. We are already familiar with the products of this company based on the Pocket PC platform (see. T-Mobile reviews MDA III and MDA Compact), now let's get to know their smaller brothers.

In the last generation HTC smartphones there are three similar products, differing only in design details and keyboard construction. The base model is called Typhoon and is equipped with an oblong joystick button (it is sold under the designations i-Mate SP3, Qtek 8080), its slightly improved modification is equipped with a round five-position joystick and is called HTC Feeler (i-Mate SP3i, Qtek 8020), the latest version supplemented by four special keys on the front panel for controlling the player function and called HTC Amadeus (T-Mobile SDA Music, Qtek 8020i). In general, these three slightly modified products are available under the full range of brands that HTC products are sold under.

T-Mobile SDA is HTC Feeler, which has been slightly redesigned exclusively for a customer - a large Western European operator. It features a black plastic casing (as opposed to a silvery aluminum with a black insert on the front panel) and a couple of additional keys for accessing Internet Explorer(which, of course, is T-Mobile's home page) and a messaging program.

Design and construction

T-Mobile SDA is a monoblock device of average size for the present time. It is often claimed that the HTC Typhon / Feeler / Amadeus is the first smartphone to be no larger than a regular phone. This is not entirely true: SDA is still slightly larger than such devices as Motorola E398 or Sony ericsson K700i (these are the products that can be considered "average" for today), although the difference is minimal. Secondly, Motorola MPx200, even at the time of its release, was about as much larger than an average-sized "clamshell", and much more compact than most smartphones in its time, and even today a smartphone. However, this does not detract from the merits of SDA, and it can be considered one of the smallest modern devices based on an open OS, at least it is essential fewer smartphones Nokia, even the newest 3230 and 6680/6681 are somewhat larger than him.

As we said, SDA is the exclusive design version of Feeler. The case consists of two halves, the back panel is black, matte, the front panel is also black, but glossy, the concave sides are also black, but smoother than the back surface, near them, closer to the front surface, there are two metal overhead plates that add to the color the range of designs is silver. The assembly of the case is very neat, the materials are quite solid, so there are no backlashes and squeaks even when the smartphone is pressed firmly enough. The only drawback is that the back surface is quite easily soiled, fingerprints are clearly visible on it, which have a smoother, sleeker surface than a clean panel. Unlike dirt on glossy panels, which is more noticeable but easily erased, these stains cannot be removed simply by rubbing the phone on clothes, they must be removed on purpose.

The main keyboard consists of a standard digital block and a management group. The main keys are medium in size, they are located close to each other, but have a convex profile, both in vertical and horizontal sections, which makes them well distinguishable by touch. The control group consists of a five-position joystick, call and end-call keys, two soft keys, and two more standard MS Smartphone buttons - Home and Back, as well as two special keys added in a special version for T-Mobile - calling Internet Explorer from the home page of T-Mobile services and accessing messages. The joystick and release keys are comfortable, their dimensions and mechanical efforts are optimally matched. Soft- and Windows-keys, lined up under the screen, are too small, it is not very convenient to find them, moreover, the small width makes pressing uncomfortable, the keys slightly cut your finger.

Only Latin letters are factory-applied on the numeric keys, on our sample (as, probably, on most of the lots of this device), Russian letters are laser-engraved. They are dimmer than the Latin ones, but it is quite possible to disassemble them, especially with backlighting.

Apparently, the smartphone does not have a keyboard lock. The instruction on this matter is silent, and the standard key combinations do not work. This is very inappropriate, since the keys are quite light and are often pressed accidentally. The joystick especially suffers, which is pressed almost constantly if the phone is placed with its front side to some relatively solid object in the pocket, for example, a wallet. Other buttons also work.

Additionally, on the side faces there are volume control and photography keys. The two-position rocker volume control is located on the left side, near the very top edge, it is small and difficult to find both due to its size and location. Likewise, but on the opposite face there is a button Photo, it is just as inconvenient, but it is not so critical for working with a smartphone.

On the top of the smartphone there is a power switch and an IrDA window, on the bottom there are connectors for a headset (standard concentric micro-jack with a diameter of 2.5 mm) and Mini USB, to which you can connect both a data cable and a charger.

On the back there is a built-in VGA camera lens and a self-portrait mirror.

An unusual piece of SDA equipment is a photo sensor located under the keyboard. The phone can be configured so that, depending on the readings of this sensor, the system will decide whether to turn on the keypad backlight. Despite the apparent uselessness, this system allows - in theory - to resolve eternal problem readability of inscriptions on illuminated and unlit keys in different lighting conditions. But in practice, SDA's color combination - white letters on a black background - is not prone to such problems, so to some extent a precaution is unnecessary.

The T-Mobile SDA is equipped with a 2.2 "TFT display with 65,536 colors and a resolution of 176x220 pixels. The screen is visually larger than that of the Motorola MPx 200/220, at the same resolution it means that it has a little larger grain size, but this does not affect the image quality too much. The picture is bright, clear, medium color saturation. The display is transreflective, so it is readable in the sun.

The phone comes with a 1050 mAh Li-Ion battery. It is held in the socket by means of a pair of protrusions at the upper end, while the lower edge is held by frictional force, the battery is also pressed by the lid. For ease of removal, cutouts are made in the side walls of the compartment through which the battery can be grasped with your fingers for specially made projections on the side edges. Under the battery there are slots for a SIM card and a miniSD memory card, so in practice there is no question of hot swapping the latter - it cannot be removed without removing the battery, which means without turning off the smartphone. The battery compartment is closed by a plastic cover on a sliding mount.

Equipment

The smartphone is equipped quite richly. In addition to the device itself, the package includes a charger with a Mini USB output connector, a data cable with a USB interface, a medium-quality stereo headset, a cloth holster, a user manual (including a small booklet in Russian, it is well published, but it contains it comes not about the modified Feeler, but about the classic Typhoon, which can be seen in the pictures), a disc with standard software (ActiveSync and Pocket Outlook), and - attention - a disc with software localization from Paragon. Taking this opportunity, we would like to say hello to Dixis and the Russian representative office of Motorola, who, for the sake of exclusivity, did not supply official MPx200 smartphones with localization distribution kit, which forced after each hard reboot to run to the service center to restore localization. Even the absolute and indisputable "gray", which is T-Mobile products in Russia and the CIS, provides better support users.

Configuration

T-Mobile SDA (like all other products based on HTC Feeler) is based on the TI OMAP 730 processor. The device is equipped with 32 MB random access memory and 64 MB - constant. From the first, 23.76 MB are available for writing user data, from the second - 9.79 MB. Expansion slots include miniSD - as follows from the specification of this interface and its location, only memory can be connected to it, but not peripherals. Wired interface SDA has one - this is USB (with the ability to charge the battery from the USB bus), among the wireless ones there are IrDA and Bluetooth. The latter supports the Headset, Hands-free and Serial Port profiles, the phone lacks the ability to transfer files directly via the OBEX protocol.

Software

T-Mobile SDA is run by Windows Mobile 2003 for Smartphones and is equipped with a corresponding set of standard software applets. Their capabilities are described in detail in the reviews of Motorola MPx200 and MPx220, so here we will focus only on the distinctive features of SDA.

Control. Except for two "hot" keys, it fully complies with the MS Smartphone standard. The only exception is one annoying moment: when exiting the submenu by pressing Back, the menu of the previous level is displayed on the first page, even if the corresponding sub-item was on the next. For example, if you exit the submenu Standard, or Games(which are on the third page of the main menu), the system will display the first page of the main menu (items Call log, Posts, Contacts etc.). To go after that to one of the neighboring points (the same Games or Standard), you will have to scroll through the main menu from the beginning, which, of course, is inconvenient.

Contacts. Now access to the built-in address book, SIM-manager and Photo Caller ID program, which allows you to assign photos displayed during an incoming call to contacts, are collected in one item of the main menu, available immediately after pressing the key Start(left soft key).

T-Zones. Read: "Internet Explorer". Here the browser is disguised, as the home page in which, of course, the title page of T-Mobile services is registered. The phone comes preinstalled with a fairly large list of links recommended by the operator in the section Favorites... Of course, both this list and the home page can be overridden by yourself.

Impressions and conclusions

The connection quality provided by the T-Mobile SDA is quite sufficient for urban conditions, however, the radio technical characteristics of this model, as it seemed to us, is slightly lower than that of most other modern phones. At the very least, wheezing and loss of frames when the reception conditions deteriorate in this smartphone appear earlier than in other modern devices.

The device works from full battery charge for 3-4 days with moderately active use of functions and programs, and a small amount of calls.

The polyphonic call sounds loud enough, its power is more than that of other smartphones for Microsoft platform, in terms of volume it roughly corresponds to Nokia smartphones. The vibration signal is well felt, it is characterized by a frequency slightly higher than the average, and a fairly large amplitude. Vibration is felt more strongly on the side surfaces of the device, but the front and back sides also transmit it well.

Our opinion of the T-Mobile SDA (and therefore of the entire family of smartphones based on the Feeler reference design) turns out to be good in the end. The device attracts with its small size, rather high performance (in this respect it is noticeably better than the Motorola MPx200 and even slightly surpasses the MPx220), large size and good quality display, quite convenient control, the presence of a Mini USB connector. In general, the device is easy to use and functional.

However, to call Feeler " perfect smartphone"As some people think it is, we cannot. Among the shortcomings, we can name the already mentioned issues with sensitivity and minor problems in ergonomics (no keyboard lock, small soft keys), and the main competitor - Motorola MPx220 - has a number of advantages over it (more easy access to a memory card, a 1.3-megapixel camera instead of VGA, a larger set of pre-installed programs).

However, in total, the T-Mobile SDA is quite good decision attractive to users, especially given the limited availability of the MPx220 and a reasonable, gradually decreasing price.
