[04:32 pm] 07 May, 2008
The Commission for Protection of Economic Competition
(CPEC) is studying the complaint of the companies Web
and Arminco. Web and Arminco reported restriction of
competition in the conditions of internet access
service provided by ArmenTel to the Commission.
According to the applications, ArmenTel provides the
Hi-Line Unlimited service of internet access using the
fixed-line telephone infrastructure which is
historically its monopoly, which the other internet
providers have no possibility to use. Web thinks that
these steps are aimed to gain monopoly in the sphere
of internet access services as well. At the same time,
according to Web and Arminco, ArmenTel refuses to
provide lines to other operators (potential
competitor).
The companies ask the commission to study the problem,
take action, as well as to discuss the issue of
describing ArmenTel as having a dominant position in
the sphere of such services, the press service of the
Commission for Protection of Economic Competition
reports.
