O. Popov, deputy CEO and financial director, OJSC NWT: Since we introduced the Avangard services in St.-Petersburg, we have become the leader at the home broadband market. NWT plans to continue this trend. Our new price-plans offer the best value in the city and ‘catch-up’ with Moscow prices, where the average price for 2 Mbit connections ranges between 150-400 roubles per month. Furthermore, our special offer for 99 roubles a month makes Avangard an affordable service for almost every resident of St.-Petersburg. Our subscribers benefit from attractive price plans, a broad range of additional services, engineer visit to home and around the clock technical support.
