Fixed-mobile retail tariff


The tariff proposal for fixed-mobile calls presented by PT Comunicações (PTC) on 26 April 2005 shall enter into force tomorrow, 11 May 2005, following the decision of ANACOM not to oppose it, approved by determination of 9 May 2005.

In fact, pursuant to the determination of 14 December 2004, on the imposition of obligations in the narrowband retail markets, the fixed-mobile (F-M) tariff of PT Comunicações, S.A. (PTC) is subject to the validation from this Authority, having regard to the fact that there are regulatory mechanisms binding on the retention amount thereof, namely the  principle of cost orientation. PTC should thus provide a reasoned justification for the retention amount, based on efficient, economic costs.

The intervention of ANACOM in the scope of the assessment of the retail tariff of PTC, and in particular the retention amount, aims essentially to protect consumer interest.
