Provision of prepaid telephone plans is expected to begin in February. State plans to be in all states by the end of 2017.

The Post reported on Tuesday (17) that the offer of its cellular service began in February. According to the state-owned company, its pilot project will be in São Paulo. The plans will then be offered in Belo Horizonte and Brasília. The goal is to reach all states by the end of the year.

Initially, the Post reported, only prepaid plans, chips and refills will be offered. The forecast is that, from 2018, the Post will make a feasibility study to offer postpaid plans.

The entire telecommunications infrastructure will be the responsibility of EUTV, the company chosen by the Post Office for the telephony project. EUTV, however, does not have its own network, but rather a partnership to use that of the TIM operator.

The Post Office will use its branch network and corporate data network, which will avoid new expenses with the new service.

According to the Post Office, the goal is to serve customers who seek simple and practical services and packages will be planned to be among the cheapest in the market.

"There are a huge number of Brazilians who do not use mobile telephony and an even larger number of users who want something more from their operators. We want to be a good option for these publics, using our vast capillarity and the confidence that the Brazilian has in the Post Office, "said the president of the state-owned company, Guilherme Campos.

The Post Office faces a major financial crisis and in 2016 it had a loss of R$ 2 billion. By 2015 the state company had already reported a loss of R$ 2.1 billion.
