France Telecom guarantees lowest prices

France Telecom, which is bidding for the GSM mobile phone network license in a group including Slovenské Elektrárne (Slovak Power Plants), Slovenský Plynarenský Priemysel (Slovak Gas Company) and three regional electricity distributors, already operates similar nets in Greece, Lebanon, India and Belgium and has 800,000 clients. If it obtains the license in Slovakia it will reportedly guarantee the lowest prices in Europe and fast coverage of Slovakia with the GSM signal.
