The first stage took place with a prioritized group in the Biob\u00edo Region, and from August 29, the same task was carried out in the communities of Puerto Cisnes and R\u00edo Ib\u00e1\u00f1ez in the Ays\u00e9n Region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To be eligible for a device replacement, the plan gives priority to Entel customers (prepaid and subscription) aged 70 and above who reside in rural areas without access to delivery services, as is the case in both communities in the region. Additionally, an information campaign will be conducted to clearly explain the benefits of replacement and the steps to follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;In our nearly 60 years of history, we have worked to provide Chileans with the most robust mobile network in the country, whether it&#8217;s a large city, a rural town, or even remote places like Rapa Nui,\u201d said Patricia Mu\u00f1oz, Director of Territory and Stakeholder Groups at Entel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOver time, our network has evolved alongside various mobile technologies to ensure our customers enjoy top-level connectivity and browsing experiences.
