Is it for free? How much does it cost?
It is not totally for free, it's called so because there are no monthly fees and no subscriptions to Internet Service Providers. You just pay for the call. In case you have your own telephone line in Greece (e.g. at home) the price is just 0.20 euros per minute, VAT inclusive (that's 20 cents per minute). There is no other subscription cost or activation cost.

PRICING WHEN USED IN HOTELS:
We suggest you check (test) your hotel's charges, using the service for a small amount of time (e.g. 10 minutes) and then asking the reception for the actual cost of the call, because every hotel has its own rate on the telephone unit, which for this service should normally be between 12 to 16 euros per hour, depending on the hotel.

Dialing from hotel rooms:
You may need to add the hotel room's prefix number for local calls, before the Free Internet number. (usually 0 or 9).
If your hotel's standard call prefix is 0 (zero), the dial up number should be 08993005555 or 0,8993005555  (comma pauses the call for one second, so that the hotel's phone center can catch up with the rest of the dialing process).
If your hotel's standard call prefix is 9, the dial up number should be 98993005555 or 9,8993005555

How long does it last? When does it expire?
It does not expire. You have internet access at any time, as long as you wish.

What kind of equipment is required?
Any PSTN (56k) modem will suit you (it's already in-built in all modern laptop computers). The connection speed for a PSTN (POTS) modem is up to 56 kbps, usually from 42 to 50 kbps actual speed. ISDN access in 64kbps is also supported, but you won't be able to find an ISDN modem unless you have your own telephone line (e.g. at home).
