摘要

In Portugal, according to ANACOM in July 2022, the number of subscribers to residential commercial offers from the main electronic communications service providers amounted to 13.8 million. With an increasingly limited expected growth potential, telecommunications operators are shifting from a strategy focused essentially on attracting new customers to a more defensive strategy focused on retaining/building loyalty among existing customers. This preliminary study aims to develop an instrument to assess the quality of service provided to their customers by Portuguese telecommunications companies in the context of northern Portugal. From an exploratory perspective, this study aims to present insights for marketing, technology and the assessment of the quality of specific services. At the end, lines of future research will be presented.
