The document "Managing fixed and mobile Internet traffic on the Proximus network" available on the Scarlet website is to be updated to reflect these changes. For an overview of the changes, you can check the updated version here.
Generally speaking, the purpose of this document is to inform customers of the procedures for measuring and directing Internet traffic on the fixed and mobile networks in order to avoid network saturation. It also gives them an explanation on the impact they can have on the quality of fixed and mobile Internet services.
Reform of the Belgian social tariff system
From 1 March 2024, a new internet social offer will be available on the Belgian market at a capped rate of €19/month (or €40/month in a combined offer or pack). Details of the Proximus offer will be available on the Proximus website from March 1st, 2024 , along with FAQs .
Customers who meet the conditions to benefit from this new internet social offer will receive a letter from the FPS Economy.
- If you are eligible for the new social internet offer, you can apply at a Proximus point of sale and convert your existing subscription. Please note that if you leave the old social tariff system, you will no longer be able to benefit from it afterwards. You also have the option of keeping your current social rate if you do not wish to opt for the new offer.
- If you currently benefit from the social rate on your existing subscription but are not eligible for the new offer, you do not need to do anything. You automatically keep it.
More information on the eligibility conditions (including the conditions and procedure for granting, maintaining and withdrawing) and the minimum content of the offer (speeds, volume, maximum prices, minimum reductions, etc.) can be found on the FPS Economy website .
Easy Switch
-
As from 2 October 2023, a new compensation system will be introduced. In accordance with the regulatory framework, the Customer is entitled to receive from the new operator:
- an automatic indemnity of €30 if the technician does not show up within the agreed time window.
- an automatic indemnity of €10 per day if the switch results in a service interruption of more than one working day on the Proximus network.
At his express request, the Customer is also entitled to an indemnity of €6 per day for late activation of services.
The indemnities referred to are not due if the event giving rise to compensation is due to the Customer.
The General Terms and Conditions of Scarlet will be adapted accordingly.
