Wind Magnum: how it works

What is Wind Magnum

Wind Magnum: how it works

Let's start from the basics: first of all let's try to understand in detail what Wind Magnum is. The first thing I have to specify is the fact that it is a solution in subscription and which, unlike other similar offers, is exempt from government concession tax. However, since it is a subscription, in fact, the payment of the costs of the service must necessarily be made by credit card or by bank or postal current account.



The offer consists of a certain number of GB in 4G that vary according to the chosen version (and therefore also the cost to be incurred for the same) + unlimited minutes. Both the Giga and the minutes can be used without limitation on the national territory and to and from the European Union.

The GB included in the offer can be used both on smartphone and tablet, portable modem or Internet Key thanks to second SIM supplied to which you can possibly add others up to a maximum of five, as we will see in more detail in the following lines.

The Wind Magnum offer can eventually be coupled to that Telephone included which, by paying an advance + 30 installments that are renewed every 4 weeks + a final installment, allows you to have a smartphone or tablet at a discounted price by choosing from the best models currently on the market and also having the opportunity to replace the chosen product with a newer one after only 18 installments.

The offer also includes other benefits, such as: Giga Full Speed (which allows you to continue browsing at a reduced speed once the GB included in the plan have been exceeded), Screen protection (which allows you to protect the screen of the new smartphone or tablet bought together at the additional cost of 2,49 euros / 4 weeks), GIGA Box (which offers 5/10 GB of 4G Internet traffic every 4 weeks by purchasing a smartphone in conjunction with the activation of the offer), Digital Home & Life (which allows you to buy a tech device online and at a discounted price) e various other promos which may change according to the period (eg. Samsung Doubles which allows you to double what is included in the offer + one year a year of Samsung Mobile care by choosing to purchase a new Samsung smartphone).



Variants and costs

At this point you should finally have cleared your minds about how Wind Magnum works and you should have understood how the offer is structured. So I would say to move on to the next step: discover the variants and costs of the plan. Find more details about it right below.

What to do in case of problems

Wind Magnum: how it works

Is there anything about Wind Magnum that is still not clear to you and you would like to receive further clarifications? Have you activated or would you like to activate the offer but are you experiencing any problems? So do this: contact the customer care of the manager and ask for help directly from the operator you will find yourself dealing with. To do this, you can choose one of the customer care channels available, those listed below.

  • 155 - It is the number you have to dial on the numeric keypad of your phone to get in touch with Wind's “classic” telephone support.
  • Fanpage Facebook Wind - It is the manager's official Facebook page through which you can get in touch with Wind by simply clicking on the button to send a message at the top.
  • Account Twitter Wind - It is the official Twitter account of the operator through which you can get in touch with the assistance by sending a direct message to Wind.
  • App Wind Talk (for Android and for iOS) - This is an app that allows you to chat with Wind operators.

If you think you need more details on what to do, I suggest you read my tutorial on how to talk to a Wind operator through which, in fact, I proceeded to talk to you about the thing in great detail.

I also suggest you take a look at the section dedicated toassistance present on the operator's website where you can find / search for the most frequently asked questions with ready-made answers that may be useful for you.

How to modify or cancel the offer

Wind Magnum: how it works

You have activated Wind Magnum but now you have changed your mind and would like to modify the offer o migrate to another manager? No problem, it can be done but, watch out, there are costs to be incurred. Let's analyze the matter in detail.

As far as the floor change is concerned, everything can be done through the appropriate section attached to theonline customer area of the Wind website - which you can access by connecting to the operator's website, by clicking on the button with the three lines high to astra, pressing up Log in and providing the required login data - or by going to one of the shops present on the in your languagen territory (which you can identify by following the guidelines that I gave you a few lines above). It is therefore sufficient to choose the alternative offer, provide any additional information requested and wait for the activation to actually be completed.

As I told you, it is feasible but there are costs to be incurred. More precisely, in the event of switching to rechargeable, the activation fee of 45 euros will be charged if made within 24 months of activating the tariff plan. On the other hand, by changing the current plan with another subscription solution, there is a plan change cost of 25 euros or 9 euros (depending on the destination offer) which will be charged directly to the invoice and in some cases the Telephone Included is also deactivated with the payment of all the due installments. For more information on this, I suggest you consult the section Change plan which you can view by clicking on the link Useful Information present on the Internet page of each Wind Magnum variant attached to the operator's site.

As regards the data SIM only supplied at the time of activation of Wind Magnum, in the event of switching to another offer, this will remain active at the cost foreseen by the relative Internet offers.

As far as the migration from Wind to another operator is concerned, to succeed in your intent, all you have to do is request number portability and switch to another operator, as I explained in detail in my article on how to change telephone operator.

Also in this case, if the portability is requested before the expiration of the contractual obligation, it is necessary to reimburse all the bonuses and promotions used (eg failure to pay the activation costs of the offer). Furthermore, if the purchase of a smartphone or other device in installments was included in the subscription to be canceled, it is necessary to pay the remaining installments for the redemption of the device plus the maxi-final installment. For more details on this, you can consult the section of the Wind website dedicated to tariff transparency together with the section relating to Terms and Conditions of offers with telephone included.

Finally, I would like to point out that if you intend to give your contact to another person you must download the form for the proposal to transfer the contract on your computer then you have to print it, fill it in by entering all the required data and send it by registered letter with return receipt to the address WIND TELECOMUNICAZIONI SpA - Post Office Box 14155, Post Office Milan 65, Cap 20152 Milan (MI).
