High-speed mobile internet is now available to two-thirds of the residents of the city known for its ginger bread, ice-hockey, the Velka Pardubicka Steeplechase or Golden Helmet Motorcycle Speedway Race. New as well as existing clients can also try this new service free of charge. When ordering the Surf+ or Surf&Mail+ add-on, contract customers can browse the internet for one month free of charge. For users of prepaid Twist cards, the operator has prepared a free two-week trial of the Twist Surf+ service. The offer applies to the first activation of these bundles.

This summer, 3G services will also be extended to other regional towns. Residents of Usti nad Labem, Hradec Kralove, Liberec, Ostrava and Karlovy Vary will enjoy fast mobile internet access by the end of September. In total, thirty major towns in the Czech Republic should be covered by the end of this year.
