Intec Extends Polish Billing Contract

BSS vendor, Intec has announced a contract extension with Poland's Polkomtel for Phase 2 of its NBS (New Billing System) project. In a multi-million Euro deal the contract involves the extension of Intec's Convergent Billing solution (Singl.eView), to service Polkomtel's post-paid customer base.

The announcement comes only twelve months after Polkomtel successfully went live with Intec's Singl.eView platform for pre-paid subscribers.

Since completion of Phase 1 Polkomtel has launched a number of unique new services including, for example, 'Chill Bill'; subscribers receive a monthly account top-up, to spend on any Polkomtel 36.6 service tariff, in exchange for receiving three, one-and-a-half minute advertisements which they connect to via a freephone IVR number. Polkomtel is one of the first operators, worldwide, to have successfully launched a 'Chill Bill' style service.

"It is three years since we started working with Polkomtel and we are delighted to be extending our relationship as a long-term, valued supplier," added Gary Burch, VP for Intec EMEA. "Phase 1 of Polkomtel's convergent billing programme has been a spectacular commercial success, and we look forward to helping them deliver higher levels of revenue, increased efficiencies and significantly improved levels of customer satisfaction."
