The promotion applies to all calls made to landlines in Switzerland. Excluded are value-added services such as 090X or 08XX. The 77 million calls prove to Swisscom that public telephones continue to meet an important need. Swisscom will therefore continue to operate public telephones as part of the universal service. As the company writes in a press release, many of the 8,500 booths throughout Switzerland will also be converted to make them suitable for the disabled and coin acceptance will be doubled to 4,000 stations.
