Dear Deutsche Telekom and Timotheus Höttges (CEO),

It has come to the attention of some of your customers who have families in Africa that no African country was included in the free international calling plan that is ongoing as a result of COVID19. We would like for T-Mobile to include African countries that patronize your telecom company so that we too can have access to our families during this pandemic. I for one have a family plan with 5 lines with your company and will appreciate the opportunity to call my family in Nigeria, West Africa. I have other families and friends with family and business plans that also feel the same way. Kindly consider revising your list to include all your loyal customers worldwide. We all have a need to call our families.

We would like to have access to landline or mobile device as the countries you are currently providing the services for. Other options you could consider for your customers is 30 minutes to an hour daily free call time to their families.

Thank you.

Below is a list of the countries currently covered by your COVID19 Plan

Supporting customers who need to call families overseas.

We are currently offering free international calling for all T-Mobile customers to landline (and in many cases mobile) numbers in many countries.

I AM ABSOLUTELY BLOWN AWAY BY THE STORIES YOU ARE SHARING IN THE COMMENTS!! IT IS BEYOND POWERFUL TO SEE SO MANY PEOPLE STANDING UP FOR THEIR FAMILIES AND DEMANDING FAIR TREATMENT FROM T-MOBILE!! WE ARE KEEPING THE PRESSURE ON BIG TIME AND I AM ACTIVELY WORKING TO GET THIS PETITION DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THEIR LEADERSHIP TEAM!!

May 1, 2020

THIS MOMENTUM IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE AND I AM COMPLETELY BLOWN AWAY BY THE RESPONSE!! SEEING SO MANY PEOPLE STAND TOGETHER FOR EQUAL ACCESS TO THEIR FAMILIES PROVES THAT OUR DEMAND FOR FAIRNESS IS GENUINE AND POWERFUL!!
