In 1995 Deutsche Telekom renamed the Bildschirmtext (BTX) service as "T-Online". In Spring 2000, T-Online became the first major ISP in Germany to offer a flat-rate dialup plan for consumers. This was important because local telephone calls in Germany, including dialup access to ISPs, were not offered on a flat price per call (i.e., unlimited) basis. The flat-rate service was also offered to customers with ISDN connections at the same price as for analog service. In spring 2001, T-Online announced the demise of the flat-rate dialup plan but offered a flat-rate DSL plan in its place.
Deutsche Telekom (T-Online) was the monopoly Internet Service Provider (ISP) for the German Internet until its privatization in 1995, and the dominant ISP thereafter.[3] Until the 21st century, Deutsche Telekom controlled almost all Internet access by individuals and small businesses in Germany.[3]
The website t-online.de was taken over by digital multi-channel media company Ströer in 2015. In addition to acquiring a major news site, the synergy enables Ströer to publish T-Online editorial content via a network of public video screens in shopping malls as well as train and subway stations.[4]
