In order to support the people of Ukraine and those who have friends and relatives there, Congstar does not charge for telephone and Internet connections for the time being.
The current Ukraine campaign can be used by all customers who have booked a mobile phone tariff from Congstar or the provider’s prepaid brands “Penny Mobil” or “ja!mobil”. They can make free calls, SMS and MMS to Ukraine until at least March 31, 2022. According to the provider, costs already incurred will be removed from the mobile phone bill retrospectively until February 23, 2022. For prepaid users, connections that have already been billed will be settled with a credit as part of the next bill.
Even those who have booked a DSL and landline complete package from Congstar do not have to pay anything for calls to Ukraine from landline or mobile networks for the time being. “We would like to support customers who want to reach relatives or friends in the Ukraine or are located there as far as we can,” the provider advertises its current campaign.

Data usage in Ukraine also free of charge
If users are located in Ukraine, Congstar does not charge any roaming costs. The Ukraine belongs to country zone 3, so higher fees would otherwise be incurred for data use.
As an alternative, Congstar also offers the regular DayPass S for 3 euros a day. Included are 50MB. The weekly pass M with 300 MB is available for 15 euros and the weekly pass L with 1 GB data volume for 30 euros. As part of the campaign, it is currently possible to book Congstar passes in Ukraine free of charge. Anyone who would like to book a roaming pass can do so via datapass.de or send an SMS to 7277 (keyword DayPass S, WeekPass M or WeekPass L).
