Talk:O2 Germany/@comment-78.180.48.109-20190129210636/@comment-24682153-20190131150238

Hi, this is kind of tricky. The old Tagesflat (day flat) was officially offered by AldiTalk on Eplus only for their surf "stick" (an old overpriced 3G USB dongle) that is still marketed by Aldi. But Eplus didn't mind that smartphone users also activated this tariff by switching to a different APN.

When o2 took over some years ago, they disabled the alternative APN. o2's APN is "dynamic" meaning it doesn't matter what you use. So the old Eplus APN is never coming back. o2 didn't discontinued the Day Flat, but bound it closer to that old Aldi Stick.

Officially, you now need to have the Aldi USB dongle to activate the Day Flat. Inofficially, there is a workaround. You need to register first in their client's area ''Mein AldiTalk. https://www.alditalk-kundenbetreuung.de/de. ''It's only available in German, but can be done with an interpreter. Than go to Mein Tarif and Internetoptionen and you will find the Day Flat called ''24 Stunden Internetflatrate. ''It's still 1GB for 24 hours at 1.99€.

Note that you are not allowed to have activated a monthly Smart or Data package. You need to be on the default rate of the excessive 0.23 € per MB to activate the Day Flat. This is hilarious as you are going to spend more money activating that for the day flat. You can only try to activate it through a different internet connection (like WiFi or 2nd SIM card). This makes the originally good plan very annoying and restrictive. You can still have it as a secondary SIM card, but you can't alternate between monthly and daily packs anymore. That's why I haven't add it to the article.
