Company profile
Parlem is a telecommunications operator founded in Catalonia, offering comprehensive mobile phone, internet and landline phone services, which aspires to offer its customers service worldwide.
Telecommunications services require a transmission and access network, for landlines and mobile phones, which operators rent to each other. Therefore, the network is not the key differentiator, since all the operators share both landline and mobile networks with similar coverage throughout Spain.
At Parlem we believe the fundamental factor is customer service: being accessible.
