Free Trial of Two Calendar Months - Gokigen Campaign

You can enjoy free Internet connection for 2 calendar months. Two calendar months means the month to which Start-Up-Date belongs and the following month. The Start-Up-Date is defined as seven days after the connection day assigned by Yahoo BB. Therefore, depending on your connection day, your trial period can be less than two full months.

Example: If your connection day is April 28, your Start-Up-Date will be May 5 (7 days later). Therefore, your trial period is May and June (2 calendar months)


Note 1: Seven days allowance for the start-up-date gives you enough time to receive your modem and install it before the official contract begins. However you can start using the Internet even before the start-up-date.
Note 2: BB phone calls are not free. You have to pay all the telephone calls made through BB phone even in the trial period.
Note 3: If you have cancelled Yahoo BB service before (with the same NTT telephone number or address), you may not be eligible for this free trial. Contact SoftBank BB Information Center for eligibility.
Note 4: There is NO trial campaign for BBTV.
