Which mobile plan in Switzerland fits you?

The Swiss mobile market offers many different mobile plans. This does not necessarily make choosing one easier. After all, not every plan suits every lifestyle.

If you have not reviewed your mobile plan for some time, you may be paying for services you hardly use. Others choose a data allowance that is too small and later have to purchase additional data.

With these four steps, you can find out what really matters when choosing a mobile plan.

Step 1 – Understand Your Actual Needs

Before comparing offers, you should know how you really use your smartphone.

Data Usage – Reality vs. Habit

Many people misjudge how much data they use. If you regularly use Wi-Fi at home or at work, you often need only a few gigabytes. Unlimited data is mainly useful if you stream while on the go, download large files or frequently watch videos.

A quick look at your smartphone settings shows you how much data you actually use. This gives you clarity and helps you avoid paying for services you hardly use.

Your everyday life also matters: Do you mainly use your phone at home and at work? Are you often on the go? Or do you also need data abroad?

The better you know your usage, the easier it is to choose the right plan.

Step 2 – Compare Offers Carefully

Now it is time to compare the different offers. What matters is not which plan offers the most, but which one includes the services you actually need.

Pay particular attention to:

Data allowance in Switzerland
Calls and SMS
5G usage
Roaming abroad
Additional costs and conditions

You should also look carefully at promotions. A low price is only a good offer if the conditions continue to suit you in the long term.

Step 3 – Check Costs and Services Carefully

Price is not the only thing that matters. Check what is actually included in the plan and what additional costs may apply.

Important points include:

Activation fees
Included data allowance
Roaming costs
Additional services
Offer conditions

A fair provider makes these points transparent. This makes it easier to compare offers and avoid unexpected costs.

Step 4 – Prepare Your Switch Carefully

Once you have decided on a new mobile plan, take some time to prepare the switch.

1. Check your current plan: Look at your documents to see which conditions apply to your existing plan.

2. Keep your number: You can transfer your existing phone number and CHmobile will even take care of cancelling your old contract for you.

3. Choose SIM, eSIM or Dual-SIM: With an eSIM, you can activate your plan digitally without a physical card. Dual-SIM allows you to use two profiles at the same time – practical if you want to separate work and private use or use local SIMs when travelling.

4. Activate your new plan: Set up your new plan and then check calls, SMS and mobile data.

This keeps the switch simple and allows you to get started with the plan that suits you.

Conclusion: The Right Mobile Plan Should Suit You

The best mobile plan is not automatically the one with the most services. What matters is what you actually need.

First, check your data usage. Then compare the services and total costs. If you travel frequently, you should also consider roaming. And when switching, it is worth taking a close look at the conditions of your current plan.

With CHmobile, you can choose between four clear options: CHmobile Start, CHmobile Flat, CHmobile Plus and CHmobile Europe.

This way, you can find a mobile plan that suits your everyday life – without paying for services you hardly use.
