SMART tells B.T.L. to tell the truth

Turning to the war among the two telephone companies, the smaller but more aggressive SMART challenged Telemedia this afternoon to disclose the true number of subscribers that have switched companies. The government’s mouthpiece this morning declared that ten thousand subscribers have left SMART for the government controlled Telemedia. According to SMART, this is false and it is an attempt to smear the company. SMART is also taking issue with Telemedia’s recent campaign on per second billing saying that Telemedia continues to charge international calls in intervals of fifteen seconds and roaming calls in intervals of sixty second. SMART attests that they are the ones that charge per second on national, international and roaming calls. And in respect to the claim of unreliability, SMART says its quality parameters surpass all standard industry indicators. The company also revealed that it has a growing customer base, which now stands at ninety thousand subscribers.
