The decision to terminate the provision of telegraph services for all categories of consumers was made in connection with a significant reduction in the number of telegrams sent, which is associated with the development of electronic communication channels and the dissemination of the use of digital signatures. According to the announcement of the company published on Thursday, November 23, in the newspaper "Uryadovy Courier", another reason for abandoning this service is obsolete equipment and its lack of support from manufacturers. In turn, the press service of the company requested the journalists, that the telegram transmission service is rapidly losing its popularity and its provision is unprofitable for the company.

The company also specified that since the overwhelming majority of telegrams are sent on working days, from December of this year within three months the schedule of their reception and delivery changes. Now the telegrams will be accepted Monday-Saturday, from eight o'clock in the morning and until seven in the evening, while Sunday and holidays will be a weekend.

We hope for the understanding of those few users of the service and are confident that, if necessary, they will choose for themselves another similar and modern communication channel, for example, offers "Ukrposhta", - noted in "Ukrtelecom".

Recall, as reported URA-Inform, October 1, "Ukrtelecom" introduced new tariffs for fixed telephony. First of all, the cost of package minutes changed, which included intercity calls, SIP-telephony and mobile phones. Thus, for 5.5 griven the fee for tariff plans will increase Home Basic, Home Minimal and General Basic. At the same time, for users of Home Unlimited, the service has risen by UAH 9.
