Finding it hard to be connected upon arrival in Switzerland?

Living without a phone or an internet connection today is not easy, especially if you’ve just landed in a new country and you want to keep in touch with your family back home. Getting a new mobile phone - even a pre-paid one - as well as an internet connection can be a hassle in Switzerland. You need your rental home contract and your residence permit – two things you may not yet have if you’ve just set foot in Switzerland.

And then, how are you supposed to navigate the maze of Swiss telecom companies in a new language? Because of these hurdles, most new expats opt for using their home country subscription. This is, of course, an option. But a VERY expensive one.

At Packimpex, we specialise in solving expats’ problems. This is why we’ve partnered with Swisscom to get you connected fast, with zero hassleminimal paperwork and also free of charge. That's right, our connectivity and consultation service is FREE.

Join Switzerland's best telecom network and get connected right away!

Packimpex will connect you to Swisscom in the fastest way possible and handle all admin work, at no extra charge. What this means is that we take your documentation, including your status as a foreign resident or newly-arrived foreigner, into consideration. 

All we need to get you connected is your future address and your passport. That’s it! No residence contract and no rental contract.

All potential sign-up issues and bottlenecks are taken care of on your behalf by our experienced team. Even when your permit documentation is all settled, we help you through the entire process and ensure everything goes smoothly. Something like your personal assistant for telecom set-up.

Do you need a Swiss mobile SIM, internet or TV at home?

Get your mobile & internet connection in record time. If you've just landed in Switzerland, are you willing to wait for two weeks to receive your resident's permit before you can have internet?

 

 

Your benefits when you book Swisscom through Packimpex:

You can start your telecoms set-up process even before you arrive in Switzerland

This way, no time is wasted and you are connected on arrival. Our activation service gives you a head start and reduces your waiting time.

We'll handle the admin at no extra charge

You’ll benefit from service in English and ultra-fast response from our knowledgeable team. We also take care of any special needs that might arise due to your foreign citizenship and ID papers - issues that often slow customers down when they try to set up their telecoms in a regular high-street store.

Get help selecting the best package for you

We know the Swisscom offer by heart and will point you in the right direction. We'll also make sure to include any current Swisscom deals. 

You'll have flexible cancellation terms

What happens if you have to leave Switzerland in a few weeks' time? The standard cancellation term for utilities in Switzerland is 3 months, and many telecoms contracts require a hefty penalty if you want to leave early. Thanks to Packimpex, you'll benefit from flexible cancellation conditions. 

You benefit from all the latest Swissom deals

Looking for the perfect Swisscom plan? No need to search through pages and pages of offers: let us help you find a deal that fits your needs like a glove!
