  • About Us : PRIMUS Telecommunications Group, Incorporated (NASDAQ:PRTL), a global telecommunications service provider, announces the its Fixed to Mobile convergence strategy with the launch of the PRIMUS PTL868, PRIMUS PTL 888 and PRIMUS PTL 898 mobile handset range and PRIMUS Global Call Saver(TM) (GCS(TM)) service. The PRIMUS PTL range are the first GSM mobile handsets to be released with PRIMUS's own PRIMUS Global Call Saver(TM) (GCS(TM)) technology. This innovation allows access to PRIMUS's global network at the touch of one button - the Hotkey(TM) - saving consumers up to 80% of the cost of their international calls. "In fact, the savings to customers are so substantial, the PTL range could realize a return on purchase within Primus Telecommunicationseks. It really is the mobile that pays for itself," said Andrew Reid, General Manager of PRIMUS Mobiles Division. The PRIMUS Global Call Saver(TM) (GCS(TM)) is available as a pre- or post- paid subscription service and is available in most Countries. The underlying technology is totally seamless to the user with calls being connected via two-stage call set-up. The customer dials their desired number or browses for a number in their handset Phone Book; once the number is displayed on screen the customer presses the Hotkey(TM) to connect. By building the "dial-around least cost routing" technology into the PTL handset there is no need for the customer to dial PIN codes or access numbers. The service is simple, seamless and invisible to the mobile user. All international calls made using the Hotkey(TM) are automatically routed to the PRIMUS global network. PRIMUS's low international rates are in almost all cases, better value for the customer than dialing direct from their service provider's network.The PRIMUS Global Call Saver(TM) (GCS(TM)) has full redundancy.The PRIMUS International Network Operations Centre (INOC) proactively monitors both call-routing and access numbers.In the unlikely event of an access number failing, the PRIMUS INOC will automatically update all users handsets via SMS (short message service), another innovation in customer service.The PTL handset range will work on any dual band GSM network with any SIM. The customer is completely free to select their national service provider and can now enjoy the benefits of PRIMUS's global network. The handset and service have been developed to address a major disparity in the market -- the excessive costs mobile customers pay for international calls. By using our new handset service, customers can experience substantial savings as compared to the cost charged on their regular in-country mobile when originating international calls.Now available worldwide, we are particularly pleased with this product because it enables us to capitalize on the fast growing mobile phone segment, with minimal capital expenditure to deploy and no incremental cost to deliver.In addition, mobile phone users can subscribe to PRIMUS's Mobile Gateway Service even though they may not be using PRIMUS's own handset. The PRIMUS Global Call Saver(TM) Service (GCS(TM)) is an example of how PRIMUS intends to grow cost-effectively its share of the wireless international telecommunications market by offering customers both basic and value added services at reasonable rates while ensuring a high quality of service.
