A major cost reductions for the User will change the configuration of the local area of Florianópolis, with the inclusion of areas of the district water Mornas, Santo Amaro, Antonio Carlos and San Pedro de Alcantara. Subscribers of these municipalities, which use average 100 minutes per month in calls to Florianopolis, currently pay R$ 0.16 by the minute for connection and will pay R$ 0.10 - a reduction of 32.71%.

"Many families live in the town, but a son or husband to work in a city side and have to speak during the day. This was being done as long distance and becomes a local call, "he said.
There will be extension of the well-site calls between towns in the currencies of Minas Gerais and Rio de Janeiro - Bocaina de Minas (MG), Itatiaia (RJ) and Resende (RJ) - and Parana and Santa Catarina - Barracão (PR) and Dionisio Cerqueira (SC).
One of the goals of the periodic changes in the regulation of local calls is to correct distortions as observed in the region of Brasilia, where all the outlying cities of the Federal District and surrounding areas can make calls to the federal capital through local calls. Luziânia, for example, already has the benefit, and Aguas Lindas de Goias, no. According to Emilia, the municipality must be considered next year, and Bertioga, in Sao Paulo, who pleads for the inclusion on the local network of Santos.
The carriers have to bear the costs for adequate network at first, but might in future be offset by any increase in the number of calls and call time
