I found this recently:

https://bimmerist.com/bmw-connectedd...ng-full-guide/

in the content of the article can be found:
"BMW 4G Telematics Retrofit
Some BMWs need only the software update, while most will require both hardware and software upgrades. The good thing is BMW classified this retrofit as a “repair retrofit”, which means the cost is covered by BMW themselves. This one-time 4G retrofit repair is currently covered regardless of the eligible vehicle’s age or mileage."

confirmed information or just fake news?
does anyone know something about it?

This was discussed about a year ago, page 9 of this thread:

2014-2016 F15 is not eligible for any free retrofit and it can not be fixed via software update, the SIB was for newer F15 2017+ to switch them to 4G completely.
