NTT Communications Corporation, from September 17, will inaugurate its Premierplan service as a series of its Arcstar Voice Network services. The new service is designed to ensure comprehensive services for corporate users of NTT Communications Members Net and FreeDial services discount plans.
Outline
The Premierplan service consists of two different discount services in order to comply with relevant requirements from corporate customers. The customers are able to freely combine these services with other existing discount services, such as Members Net Super Discount and FreeDial Super Discount. The Premierplan features Distance-Based and Time-Zone-Based discount services for corporate customers of the Members Net service and/or the FreeDial service, and Contract-Term-Based service for those of either the Members Net service, the FreeDial service or the Arcstar Direct service.

Note: Contract amount covers toll call charges from the Members Net and the Arcstar Direct services, as well as toll call charges to the FreeDial service. (Incoming calls from cellular and PHS phones are covered by only the Arcstar Direct service)
