Moscow City Telephone

December 9, 2004

MGTS payphones started sending sms and e-mail messages

Moscow City Telephone Network has upgraded regular street payphones to the level of intelligent web-payphones.

Starting December 9, three thousand card- and coin/card-operated payphones located in the most animated places of the city will be able to send sms messages and e-mail.

"A year of web-payphones operation demonstrated that the ability to send sms is one of the most claimed features of the new generation phones. So far we have ten of them at the network, so we decided to increase this number through the use of usual payphones," - said the head of MGTS payphone department Arkady Semenov.

All sms- and e-mail-enabled payphones will display a special sticker with operating instructions (see reference - in Russian).

The new services are priced 2 rate units (ranging between RUR 3.80 and RUR 6.00 depending on the value of the telephone card).
