SAO PAULO - The president of the National Telecommunications Agency (Anatel), João Rezende that the trend of the Board of the agency is not accepting applications for contesting the notice of the auction items of frequency bands for 4G technology, scheduled for 12 June. According to him, asked if any telecom service provider is complied with, the deadlines for bidding should be reviewed, and does not intend to change the timing of the FCC auction.

"Our intention is there any kind of extension. It is important to meet the timetable and open the proposals in 12 days, "he said Rezende. Requests for appeal made by the auction companies have already been denied by a technical agency and are now being analyzed by the advisor Marcelo Bechara, who was selected to report the issue. According to Rezende, the report must be voted on at the next board meeting scheduled for Thursday (31).

Rezende believes that the auction will have a good competition between operators. "There is a positive rush of companies to resolve tax disputes with the FCC and be able to participate in the auction."

The expectation is the FCC to raise at least R$ 3.8 billion from the auction, if all lots are sold. The winning bidder will be the one that offers the highest price for the granting of each.

According to the announcement of the schedule, all municipalities with more than 100,000 inhabitants will have 4G coverage until December 31, 2016.
The host cities Confederations Cup will be covered by 4G until April 30, 2013, while the headquarters and branch offices of the World Cup will have the service until December 31, 2014.
