- the maximum retail price (not including VAT) for calls to “707” and “708” numbering ranges made by clients of the mobile telephone service is 0.13 euros per minute, with billing by the second from the first minute onwards;
- the maximum retail price (not including VAT) for calls to “808” numbering ranges is fixed at the maximum value of 0.07 euros for the first minute and for the following minutes at the maximum values of 0.0277 euros per minute during normal hours (business days from 9h to 21h), and 0.0084 euros per minute during economic hours, with billing by the second from the first minute onwards;
- the maximum retail price (not including VAT) for calls to “809” numbering ranges is fixed at the value of 0.0258 euros per minute, with the billing being defined by the second from the first minute onwards.
