Carrier email carrying, can you go back?(Kenta Yamaguchi) -Person -Yahoo! News

NTT DOCOMO, KDDI, and SoftBank have launched carrier email carrying services.Although it is expected to promote the transfer, it seems that "return" still has a limit.

DOCOMO is "docomo" as a mobile carrier's unique email service..hey.JP ", KDDI" EZweb.hey.JP "and SoftBank" SoftBank.hey.JP "" Ymobile.hey.We provide users with addresses that end with "JP".

According to a Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications survey, about 20%of those who are not thinking about changing mobile carriers have changed because their carrier email addresses will change.If the address can be carried, 74%of people say "I want to use".

It is unknown how many people want to use it for a fee, but it seems that there are quite a few people who do not want to change the carrier mail address.

Many people will not use career emails anymore.More and more seniors use LINE and Instagram DMs in contact with their families.The problem is when there are relatives or acquaintances connected only by carrier email addresses.

Like a landline number, there are many people who can't change, fearing that the connection will be reduced even if the frequency is reduced.Therefore, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications aimed to remove the barriers to transfer between carriers by enabling the address of the address.

The service name is "DoCoMo Mail carrying", KDDI is "carrying au mail", and SoftBank is "carrying e -mail address", and the rough mechanism is similar.The fee is 330 yen per month for DOCOMO and KDDI, and only Softbank is 3300 yen per year, but it will be compatible with monthly payments of 330 yen per month after the summer of 2022.

Depending on the environment you use, you need to set up an mail server.Also, if the transfer destination carrier assigns a new address, you will need the skills to master two email addresses.

"Return" is not possible except AHAMO

What I was worried about when comparing the services of each company was whether I could return to my original career after switching to another business using a carrying service.

This is because there are a certain number of people who are not satisfied with the service content and want to return to their original career in cases where they switch to a cheap business.

However, in this case, it is said that all three carriers cannot move in with MNP while maintaining their original email address.If you really want to keep using the same address, it seems that you will continue to pay for your carrying service in addition to the regular communication charges.

For example, in the case of docomo, there are the following precautions.

However, according to DOCOMO, "it is possible to return from Ahamo to DoCoMo."Specifically, if docomo users have contracted a portable service at the same time as the plan change to AHAMO, and then changed the plan to docomo, the carrying contract will be canceled and the same address can be continued only for docomo fees.。

In other cases, the "return" of those who carry the address is not assumed, so it gives the impression of a one -way ticket.The return of users is welcome in each carrier, so it is likely that if there is a lot of needs, it will be considered.
