Sunrise tempts newcomers with free digital TV

Swiss service provider Sunrise is offering its digital TV service free of charge for one year to new subscribers. The offer is open to anyone switching to Sunrise and signing up for internet and TV.

The operator is also offering a somewhat smaller incentive to existing internet customers to upgrade to TV as well. Customers who take the operator’s Sunrise Home Internet and MTV Home Internet offerings and add digital TV to their packages will receive Sunrise Smart TV for three months free of charge.

Customers who switch their Internet and TV service to Sunrise before October 31 will receive Sunrise TV start, normally priced at CHF25.00 (€23) a month, or Sunrise TV comfort, priced at CHF35.00 a month, at no charge for 12 months.

The prerequisite for receiving Sunrise Smart TV is a Sunrise Home Internet subscription, starting at CHF45.00 a month for Sunrise Home internet start or an MTV home internet subscription, starting at CHF55.00 a month for MTV home internet comfort.

Customers with a Sunrise mobile subscription will receive a 10 % discount on all their basic monthly charges, provided they combine a mobile subscription and Sunrise Home products in one bill.

The latest promotional drive comes as Swiss magazine Bilanz rated Sunrise Smart TV as the country’s best digital TV product for the second time in a row.

“The customer growth of our digital TV product in the first six months was higher than for our competitors. This trend and the Bilanz Telecom ratings for 2016 testify to the attractiveness and outstanding price-performance ratio of Sunrise Smart TV. This promotion gives our customers the best TV service in Switzerland for 12 months free of charge,” said CEO Olaf Swantee.
