Portugal Telecom has launched the VoIP (Voice on IP) service in Portugal. The SAPO Messenger clients now have theVoIP and vídeo service between PCs free of charge, making it the Messenger service with the largest number of communication functions currently available.

According to Miguel Horta e Costa, Executive Chairman of the PT Group, “this is yet another bet by PT on broadband. Voice and video between PCs free of charge is something new which will have great impact, bearing in mind the era in which we are living”.

For Zeinal Bava, Executive Director of the PT Group, “the launch of the VoIP and vídeo call services on SAPO Messenger comprises the PT strategy in adding more value to our residential broadband offer (Sapo ADSL e Netcabo) and in promoting the increase in broadband penetration in Portugal. Recently we multiplied the speed offered to broadband clients by four. Now the standard offer renders a speed of 2 Mbps, and we also introduced the free gigamail” said Zeinal Bava, Executive Director. “We are always investing in new innovating services which will make the Internet an integral part of our clients’ lives in any place and at any time”, he adds. Just as an example is the mobility. Through PT Wi-Fi, one can access the Internet in 718 hotspots in Portugal; PT Comunicações price campaigns and PT Schools with the aim of anticipating a generation within the information society.
