Telepac

Telepac is the Portuguese internet service brand of the Portugal Telecom group.

Use

The Telepac brand dates from the time when Portugal Telecom didn't yet exist. It was used beginning in 1985 by Telefones de Lisboa e Porto (TLP) and Correios, Telefones e Telégrafos (CTT) for its Videotex services. It was the property of Transdata, a joint venture between CTT and TLP.[1]

In 1992, a merger with CTT created Telecom Portugal, which didn't modify the videotex management. In 1995[2] they started to offer internet services.

In 1999, they became the ISP of SAPO.
