1. Initial situation
Seabix recommendation
Leave access to premium services disabled at all times. Otherwise high costs can arise.
According to the federal court ruling, access to premium numbers and access to value-added SMS is generally deactivated. People over the age of 16 can activate this access as described below. However, there is an annual cost limit of CHF 5,000.
