Services
VerTV
VerTV was originally founded to be a national company that provides free IPTV service for the citizen of Vertigo and the entire world. It was started on 8 December 2014, and since 19 February 2015 it has become a service of the new-born governmental company.
Its name, "VerTV" means "Watch TV" in Spanish. It was also similar to Vertigo, the name of the nation it serves.
Telephony and mobile telephony
Telephony and mobile telephony services are both based on the same service. The mobile telephony service uses WiFi as a wireless platform to transmit the data needed to and from the cellular phone. The landlines are connected by wires to the main service unit, therefore, they are currently limited in quantity.
Pricing
During VCom's attempt to provide free services, the mobile phone service was free.
Assignment of phone numbers
Phone numbers assigned by VCom are 6 digits long and are assigned randomly or by the client's request. A prefix was also added to the phone number, and was assigned as follows:
Prefix | Service | Location |
---|---|---|
11 | Landlines | Presidency of Vertigo |
12 | Cellphones | Presidency of Vertigo |
Internet services
As part of the mobile and landline phone lines, VCom gave a free, stable, and high speed Internet connection. Prior to dissolution, VCom was planning to give at least 100MBps free or relatively cheap Internet service in the future.
Closure
With the dissolution of Vertigo, VCom started disassembling as well. The process of disbanding the company was completed in 13 December 2017, when the last server was taken off-line.
