Calls from public telephones in 2020 municipalities will not be charged until the dealership achieves the goal of offering over 90% of handsets in operation until it is set and the density in 742 cities. The injunction issued by Anatel was agreed with the operator, who has missed the revitalization plan submitted by public telephones her because, according to the company, the manufacturers failed to deliver on time as many appliances. Gratuity applies to local calls to landlines and can be made with or without inductive card.
Until the 30th of this month, 90% the ears of 1,724 municipalities in the states of Alagoas, Amapá, Bahia, Ceará, Maranhão, Pará, Paraíba, Paraná and Sergipe have to offer free calls and 100% by September 30. In these municipalities, the problem was detected unavailability in about 30% of public telephones and gratuity will be worth at least until October 30.

In other municipalities, where it was found the lack of adjustment to the new proposal density in PGMU 3 of 4 per 1000 population by municipality, the gratuity shall occur until December 31. The concessionaire will have to disclose the extent to which cities will be worth. These hoods can also be found in the states of Rio de Janeiro, Rio Grande do Sul, Mato Grosso and Amazonas. The total hoods 742 are added to this problem, but these, 446 are also available to below 90%.

According to the president of Anatel, Jarbas Valente, a similar measure was adopted in April against Embratel. The gratuitousness of the 1,500 public telephones dealership this valley until September 30 this year and is only for long-distance calls.

Valente said the revitalization plans foresee investments of R $ 205 million, of which R $ 170 million of Hi, which is responsible for 760 000 of 911 000 public telephones installed in the country. It is expected that with the completion of the density adjustment, the number of public phones fell to 770 thousand.

The Hi attributed the failure of the target to the inability of the industry to meet the requests. The superintendent Universal Anatel, Jose Neto, confirmed this difficulty, noting that only two companies manufacture the equipment. He said the dealership has hired more than 130 thousand hoods lately.

Lifting

In September 2011, the FCC made a survey of the situation of public telephones in the country and found that 79% of the ears and Hi were available to 50% of Embratel were under the same conditions. While 70% of Telefonica's PUTs were in full operation.

In June this year, we observed a trend of plant availability, but only reached the goal Telefonica under revitalization plan, with 91% of public telephones in operation. Embratel has reached 69% of payphones in operation and Hi, to 86%.
Sercomtel was 98% of the available machines and CTBC, 97%.
