An experience we are getting more and more used to these days is that of a Cellular operator launching fixed line services, and Vodafone is perhaps the most frequent of these having done it now in multiple countries in Europe. Now its is making an aggressive bid to take the high ground in high speed ADSL2+ networks in Portugal, offering broadband speeds of up to 24Mbps in various bundles with cellular services.
Vodafone Portugal is heaping this on top of an existing ADSL offer which offers flat rate voice calls to fixed lines, advantaged rates to mobiles while retaining existing phone numbers.
This service comes in various packages, or instance one at €39.90 a month and with mobile internet access for a further €3 a day and a flat monthly rate for both.
Vodafone Portugal also offers a bonus ‘immediate activation’ option, on the same day they subscribe to the service, by allowing mobile surfing for free until the DSL line is put in. Customers registering before 31 July get a 50% discount until the end of the year.
