The area code for new Swiss Post mobile customers is 621, as long as they have not taken their number to one of the competitors or imported it from them.

EU directives on postal liberalization

If the EU directives , which provide for the liberalization of postal activities, are implemented in Luxembourg, this will lead to the loss of the postal company's last monopoly, the letter post, by December 2012 at the latest. A master plan (Agenda 2012) also provides for the early creation of a private telecommunications company that also includes LUXGSM.

In view of the confusing information policy of the management, the OGBL trade union advocates collective bargaining based on the applicable laws.
