Deutsche Telekom ends service on June 30, 2028, Vodafone at the end of September 2028, o2 Telef\u00f3nica in the second half of 2028. Affected assets include elevator emergency calls, alarm systems, telemetry, meters and payment terminals. Without a reliable inventory you migrate blind. We take on inventory, technology selection and negotiation as part of your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savecall.de\/en\/mobilfunkmanagement\/\">mobile phone management<\/a>, from a single source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-contrast-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);margin-right:0;margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);margin-left:0\">The widely quoted grace period until 2030 applies to Vodafone only, covers particularly critical IoT applications only, and only by prior arrangement. Dismantling starts there in January 2031. Telekom and o2 Telef\u00f3nica have announced no comparable exception. For your planning the deadline is therefore 2028, not 2030.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--25);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--25)\"><strong>Your benefits at a glance:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list savecall-list big arrow-blue has-contrast-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-7ffd69a9da5720fb62b64aebee138f4e\">\n<li><strong>Inventory in days, not weeks:<\/strong> We evaluate your SIM and device data across all three networks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Clear technology choice:<\/strong> NB-IoT, LTE-M, LTE Cat-1 bis or 5G RedCap, matched to the use case.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Contracts ahead of the deadline:<\/strong> We align terms and notice periods with the switch-off date, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savecall.de\/en\/contract-management\/\">contract management<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Carrier-neutral negotiation:<\/strong> Access to more than 80 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savecall.de\/en\/partner\/\">carriers and partners<\/a>, with no network of our own to sell.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>One point of contact:<\/strong> Migration, logistics and billing run through mySAVECALL.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-right is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-0ca25c3d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.savecall.de\/en\/bookings\/\">Consultation<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:45%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns hover-block-50 is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-3a88641f wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-column-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group card has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"background-color:#2daae1\">\n<div style=\"background-image:url(&apos;https:\/\/www.savecall.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/SAVECALL-Ersparnisgarantie1-scaled.jpg&apos;);background-position:51% 41%;background-size:cover;background-attachment:scroll;\" class=\"wp-block-group hover-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained has-background\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-base-color has-text-color has-link-color has-all-font-family wp-elements-bb11b13e1deba10890f7489d6391ae45\" id=\"h-gt-20-ersparnis\" style=\"padding-top:0;padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);font-size:clamp(26.465px, 1.654rem + ((1vw -

Deutsche Telekom names June 30, 2028, Vodafone the end of September 2028, and o2 Telef\u00f3nica the second half of 2028 without naming a month. These are the operators&#8217; own planning dates, not guarantees.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785248414855\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Does the exception for critical IoT until 2030 apply to all German operators?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">No, only Vodafone has published such an exception. It covers particularly critical IoT applications, applies by prior arrangement only, and runs until December 2030, after which dismantling begins in January 2031. Telekom and o2 Telef\u00f3nica have announced nothing comparable.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785248415972\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Which devices are affected by the 2G sunset?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Every device that can only use 2G or 3G is affected. The German regulator lists radio modules in vehicles, emergency call modules in elevators, card payment terminals, and industrial sensors and meters. Fixed control systems and older telematics units fall into the same category.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785248417089\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Are 4G devices affected by the 2G sunset?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes, under one condition. A 4G device without VoLTE uses 4G for data but falls back to 2G for voice. Once 2G is off, telephony and emergency calling stop working on those devices, so VoLTE has to be verified per device rather than assumed.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785248418206\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Which technology replaces 2G for IoT?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">For small data volumes with long battery life, NB-IoT and LTE-M are the successors. Where more bandwidth is needed, LTE Cat-1 bis, LTE Cat-4 or 5G RedCap apply. Data volume, battery budget and coverage at the site decide which option fits.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1785248419323\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What does consulting on the 2G migration cost?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The initial call and the requirements analysis are free of charge. We review your estate, the operator dates and your contract terms, and show the migration effort transparently before you decide. We then negotiate carrier-neutral and settle through the carriers rather than through consulting fees.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull cta-group white-bg has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide header-logo-no-border is-content-justification-center is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-868698fc wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\">\n<h4 id=\"h-one-contact-all-carriers\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:clamp(18.959px, 1.185rem + ((1vw - 3.2px) * 0.8), 30px);\">ONE Contact.

Deutsche Telekom names June 30, 2028, Vodafone the end of September 2028, and o2 Telef\u00f3nica the second half of 2028 without naming a month.

The German regulator lists radio modules in vehicles, emergency call modules in elevators, card payment terminals, and industrial sensors and meters. Fixed control systems and older telematics units fall into the same category.","inLanguage":"en-US"},"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"Question","@id":"https:\/\/www.savecall.de\/en\/2g-sunset-germany\/#faq-question-1785248417089","position":4,"url":"https:\/\/www.savecall.de\/en\/2g-sunset-germany\/#faq-question-1785248417089","name":"Are 4G devices affected by the 2G sunset?","answerCount":1,"acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes, under one condition. A 4G device without VoLTE uses 4G for data but falls back to 2G for voice. Once 2G is off, telephony and emergency calling stop working on those devices, so VoLTE has to be verified per device rather than assumed.","inLanguage":"en-US"},"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"Question","@id":"https:\/\/www.savecall.de\/en\/2g-sunset-germany\/#faq-question-1785248418206","position":5,"url":"https:\/\/www.savecall.de\/en\/2g-sunset-germany\/#faq-question-1785248418206","name":"Which technology replaces 2G for IoT?","answerCount":1,"acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"For small data volumes with long battery life, NB-IoT and LTE-M are the successors.
