To comply with the law, Swisscom must validate the identity of its customers. If you have received a request from us to supply a valid Permit S, this is because the document we have on our system is not sufficient.
Please mind that only the Swiss Permit S is suitable for the identification process.
It means that the document provided when you first received the number does not comply with Swisscom’s internal requirements. This may be because the scanned document is of a poor quality, the wrong document has been provided (such as a driving licence or Ukrainian national passport) or the wrong scan has been attached, etc.
Yes. If you want to continue using your number, then you need to provide us with a valid Permit S. Swisscom acts according to Federal Law Regulations requiring every user to provide a valid identification document to obtain a phone number. That is why it is critically important for you to go through the identification process to supply Swisscom with all the information necessary in order to continue using our service.
In the SMS you receive you will see the deadline by which you need to provide Swisscom with the valid Permit S.
If you fail to visit Swisscom shop and provide your Permit S before the deadline stated in your SMS, your number will be automatically suspended until we receive the required document.
If you cannot use your phone number anymore, that means we deactivated your number because you failed to provide us with your valid Permit S.
No, if your number was deactivated, it is not possible to reactivate it. However, you can buy a new subscription with an offer for Ukrainian refugees.
As per Swisscom regulations, children under 18 cannot independently obtain a subscription. Parents are responsible for purchasing a package for their children over the age of 11 and completing the subscription process on their behalf.
No, to complete the identification process you need to be present personally. Bring your valid permit S and mobile phone. Your relatives or friends cannot do that for you.
The process of identification and updating information in Swisscom shop takes approximately 15 minutes.
You can go to any Swisscom shop. Please note that you will need to bring your valid Permit S to successfully complete the process.

At present, Swisscom can only accept Swiss Permit S. No other documents are currently accepted.
No, driving licence іs not accepted.
As it is in Ukrainian, the Ukrainian national passport isn’t accepted. Please use your Swiss Permit S instead.
If you are currently in the process of renewing your Permit S, you can still use your old Permit S. But you will have to provide us with the new Permit S as soon as you receive it.
If you have a question that isn’t answered here, you can reach out to our Swisscom Customer Support by calling 0800 800 800.
Swisscom supported Ukrainian refugees for 2.5 years by providing free services. However, even free services incur financial costs that Swisscom has had to bear. Over the past 2.5 years, Swisscom covered all these expenses. However, due to changes in user behavior that have led to increased costs, we made the decision to introduce a paid offer to help cover these expenses.
Your credit balance is less than 20 and therefore the Ukraine Option cannot be renewed automatically. You will be charged according to the basi prepaid tariff (calling: 0.29 CHF/ per min., SMS: 0.15 CHF/ per SMS, surfing: 2 CHF/ per day).
To benefit from the Ukraine Option, you need to have at least 19.90 CHF on your balance on the day of package renewal. If you want to continue using the option, you must top up your credit. You can top up your credit either directly in the Cockpit (cockpit.swisscom.ch), in a Swisscom Shop or via a prepaid voucher. You can find more information on this at www.swisscom.ch/prepaid under the section Top up credit in the cockpit and further top-up options for prepaid
The special offer will become paid for all the users without any exceptions. We comminicated this earlier in August. If some of the users who are using this offer have not received a message about the changes, it is recommended to contact customer support to clarify the issue.
There are multiple ways to top up your balance. Please visit www.swisscom.ch/prepaid and scroll down to the "Top-up options for prepaid" section. There, you can find information about all available methods to top up your balance.
If you have insufficient balance on the day of the package update (for example 19,00 CHF instead of 19,90 CHF), you will not receive a new package with inclusive units, and all services will be charged according to the basic prepaid tariff. In case if you have 0 CHF on your balance, you will not be able to make calls, use the internet, or send SMS. However, you will still be able to receive calls and SMS. Once you top up your balance with at least 19.90 CHF, your package will be automatically updated, and you will receive inclusive units for the next 30 days.
If you have insufficient balance on the day of package renewal, nothing will happen to your number. Your number will remain active, and you will still be able to use it. However, any services you use will be charged according to the basic prepaid tariff, or you won’t be able to use any services (make calls, send messages and use Internet) if your balance is 0 CHF. You will be able only receive incoming calls and messages. If the prepaid service is not used for a period of 12 months, the prepaid SIM will be deactivated.
To keep your number active, you need to:
Make sure to do this at least once within 12 months to keep your number active.
Your number will remain active for 12 months without any activity on your account. After 12 months of inactivity, your number will be deactivated.

Non-use comprises all activities that do not result in a change (reduction or increase) to the prepaid credit, e.g.:
After using up all your 60 GB of fast internet, your speed will be reduced to 128 Kbps until your offer is renewed. If you don't want to wait for the package to be renewed, you can buy data packages. There are data packages for 500MB, 2GB or 5GB with which you can surf at a faster speed (50Mbit/s) for the specified amount of data.
Swisscom has communicated that the changes will be adjusted "from the first package renewal after 02.10.2024". That means your next package renewal, which occurs after the 2nd of October, will already be paid. However, each customer has a unique package renewal date. If you want to know your renewal date, check when you received your renewal notification from the previous month and count +30 days from that date. This will be the date by which you must have at least 19.90 CHF to receive the new package.
If you received a message, stating that you were chaged 2 CHF per day, it means that on the date of your package renewal, you did not have a sufficient balance (less than 19.90 CHF) and your package was not updated. After using the internet, you were charged the standard prepaid price for internet usage. If you do not want to be charged daily, you can disable your data or ensure that you have at least 19.90 CHF on your balance so that you can receive a package for the next 30 days. For calls, you will be charged 0.29 CHF/min, and for sending SMS, it will cost 0.15 CHF/SMS.
No, you don't need to pay for the months that you skipped. After you top up your balance for at least 19,90 CHF, you will be provided a package with inclusive units for the next 30 days on the same day. Your next package renewal will be counted from this day.
As per Swisscom regulations, children under 18 cannot independently obtain a subscription. Parents are responsible for purchasing a package for their children over the age of 11 and completing the subscription process on their behalf.
No, to complete the identification process you need to be present personally. Your relatives or friends cannot do that for you.
Every user who was given a special offer for refugees by Swisscom before 01.12.2022 has been sent or will soon be sent an SMS notifying them about changes to their current subscription.
Swisscom has decided to make these changes to give its users more freedom and to treat them in the same way as its other customers. From now on, users can activate additional services in the Cockpit that were previously disabled.
No. Only those users who activated their subscription before 01.12.2022 will receive this message. Users who activated their subscription after this date have been using their subscription under the new rules. If you are unsure about your subscription type, you can check it in the Cockpit.
No, you don't need to do anything. These messages are standard informational SMS messages that everyone receives when switching to a prepaid offer.
Swisscom is changing subscription type, which may cause some users to experience network interruptions. Please wait patiently until you receive an SMS notification confirming that your subscription type has been changed. To restore your connection, restart your phone or enable a Flight (Airplane) mode, wait for a few seconds, and then disable it. Following this, your connection should be restored.
If the issue continues to occur, please contact our Ukrainian/Russian-speaking Customer Support at 0800 800 800 between 9 am and 4 pm to determine if there is a problem.
This is a standard SMS sent to everyone switching to a Prepaid offer with less than 10 CHF credit.
If you wish to renew your subscription or purchase offers not included in the package, such as roaming, you will need sufficient credit on your account.
If you activated your number before 01.12.2022 and received a message stating that your subscription plan is being changed, it indicates that you are being migrated to a new subscription. Typically, the process of changing subscription types takes about 15-20 minutes. If you received a message stating that you were charged for some service, it means you used this service during the transition period. You should ignore this message, as it's a standard SMS. The offer remains free, and Swisscom does not charge anything. Once the process is fully completed, you will receive an SMS notifying you about it.
Yes. If you started using your number after 01.12.2022, you have already received the prepaid offer and the changes do not apply to you. Visit your Cockpit to check your account statement.
All users of the special offer for Ukrainian refugees will receive a notification SMS at some point. There are several rounds of customer notifications. If you haven’t received an SMS yet, you will receive it sometime soon.
These changes mean that users are now given a 30-day package including:
- Unlimited calls within Switzerland
- 300 mins of calls to Ukraine (then 10 centimes/min)
- 90 mins of international calls (then standard tariff)
- 300 SMS
- Unlimited Internet at a reduced speed within Switzerland once the 60 GB allowance is reached.
Users also have greater freedom to manage their subscription options and can activate additional services, such as roaming. Remaining package allowances can be checked in the user’s personal Cockpit by going to http://cockpit.swisscom.ch.(öffnet ein neues Fenster)
As soon as all the above-mentioned inclusive allowances have been used up, usage is at the standard rate (see prepaid details under the prepaid basic rate on the website www.swisscom.com/prepaid(öffnet ein neues Fenster)).
You must have sufficient credit on your prepaid account to continue using your number once the inclusive allowances have been used up. Credit must be topped up in advance so that the usage can be deducted from this credit. If there is no credit and the inclusive allowances have been used up, the number cannot be used until the start of the following month. You can find out how to top up your credit at www.swisscom.ch/prepaid(öffnet ein neues Fenster) under the "Top up credit" tab.
If you have used up the 90 mins of international calls provided and attempt to make another international call, you will be charged per minute. Once your account credit runs out, the call will be interrupted. Therefore, it is beneficial for you to buy an additional package of international calls in advance, as it will be cheaper.
Please contact Customer Support 0800 800 800 to find out if there is an issue.
