Save thousands with our mobile check

Published: Sept. 4 2025

Switching to a cheaper mobile subscription could save you a lot of money. Whether it's for yourself or if you're paying for someone else's subscription, it’s worth checking out. Try our 6-step mobile check.

1. What do you (or your household) actually need?

Today, mobile subscriptions are mainly based on data usage. Calls and unlimited texts are usually included as standard, included with Chilimobil.

It’s much better to check how much data is actually being used than to simply continue with your current plan. Choosing the right subscription is often where the biggest savings are found.

Tip: Not sure what you need? Start with a lower, cheaper plan and upgrade if necessary. You can always downgrade later.

Tip: How to check your data usage

Log in to the app or website of your current mobile provider and check how much data you've used by opening your latest invoice.

2. Compare other mobile providers

Use comparison sites like Tek.no or Bytt.no to find the cheapest mobile subscription that suit your usage. Remember: as a Tekna member, you get even better deals than those shown on these sites.

Great prices on mobile plans

Chilimobil is known for its low prices and excellent customer service. If you're a Tekna member, you get even better rates on top.

3. Coverage and speed

While price is important, you should also consider coverage and data speed. Check the coverage maps from different providers to make sure you’ll have good service where you live and work. Chilimobil uses Telia’s network, which has Norway’s largest 5G network and excellent nationwide coverage.

4. Consider a family plan

If you’re paying for multiple family members, a family plan could be more cost-effective. With Chilimobil, you get an additional discount of NOK 15 per family member – on top of your Tekna membership discount.

*The prices in the comparison are sourced from Bytt.no as of 10 April 2025, and show equivalent plans from Norway’s two largest mobile providers. We’ve used publicly available information to give a realistic picture of how much a Tekna family could save. The example is only in Norwegian.

5. Length of contract

Some plans come with a binding period, and a low introductory price can quickly be offset by a higher monthly fee once the contract kicks in. With Chilimobil, there’s no binding period and you get low, predictable monthly prices.

6. Customer service

If you ever need help or have questions, it’s reassuring to know your provider offers good customer service. Some operators only offer self-help pages or automated chatbots. With Chilimobil, you can choose: either find the answer yourself or contact our friendly support team.
