TPSA cuts international calls to selected countries
Starting today, Telekomunikacja Polska S.A. (TPSA) is lowering its charge
for international connections by 25% to six selected countries on six
continents. The list of countries includes France, the United States,
Australia, Brazil, Egypt and Japan, but does not include Germany, to which
Poles make 40% of their international calls. TPSA's move is in preparation
for full liberalization of international calls, effective from the beginning
of next year. Despite the cut, calls to the United States, for example, will
still be more than twice as expensive as those made from the Czech Republic.
TPSA has so far failed to fulfill another of its promises - that of reducing
the monster queues at its Customer Service Points, where millions of s
ubscribers line up each month to pay their bills. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p.26)
