NTT Com Wins Telemark's Top Award for Data VPN

TOKYO, May 8 /PRNewswire/ --

NTT Communications (NTT Com) today announced that its global data network
services have won the Platinum Award for ranking highest in terms of overall
customer satisfaction in the latest "Voice of the Customer: Global Data VPN"
report issued on April 24, 2008 Telemark Services of the United Kingdom.

The company earned its first-ever Platinum Award by receiving the highest
cumulative score overall. Eight categories are measured by the survey:
Indispensable to Customer, Top 10 Customer Priorities, Meeting Requirements,
Pricing, Network Installation, Network Operation, Customer Support and
Billing.

NTT Com also was presented a Diamond Award for its top ranking in Meeting
Requirements.

The report is based on the results of 749 interviews of IT managers of
multinational companies.

Eight global operators were considered for awards: AT&T, BT, Cable &
Wireless, Orange Business, T-Systems, Telefonica, Verizon Business and NTT
Com, the only Asian candidate.

"Telemark uses a Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) to measure perceived
operator performance. The overall CSI measures the customer experience of the
total service provider's Data VPN offerings against a set of customer
requirements. NTT Com occupies the number-one position, in the league table
that compares eight global operators for overall customer satisfaction,
because it captured the hearts and minds of Data VPN service users more
successfully than its rivals, thereby scoring the highest overall CSI," said
Janet Watkin, Director at Telemark Services.

NTT Com is committed to continuously raising the quality of its global
services by sharing know-how with partners worldwide. The company holds the
annual Arcstar Carrier Forum in Tokyo to gather partner telecoms from Asia
and other regions and consider ways to upgrade private network-related
services offered jointly under the Arcstar brand.
