MVNO Definition 

What constitutes an MVNO varies depending on the research house and the analyst you ask. Take the 

SIMYO “MVNO” operation within Europe. SIMYO operates in Belgium, The Netherlands and Germany. 

The industry refers to SIMYO as an MVNO. We have classified SIMYO as a branded operation, not an 

MVNO. 

MVNO – Mobile Virtual Network Operator 

Our interpretation of this term is as follows: 

1. There must be a mobile voice / data service 

2. The owner of the operation does not own the physical network, specifically base stations, which 

the mobile service operates on 

3. The operation must run in a geographic area utilising a physical network 

4. The user relationship with the MNO (mobile network operator / wireless carrier) is operated and 

maintained by the MVNO 

5. Roaming agreements are not MVNO operations 

Referring back to the SIMYO operation, we have classified SIMYO as a brand. The SIMYO operation in 

Belgium is owned by BASE. The latter is also the carrier for SIMYO Belgium. SIMYO Germany utilises 

the German network operator E-Plus, similarly E-Plus is the owner of SIMYO Germany. In The 

Netherland SIMYO operates on the KPN network, KPN owns the SIMYO Netherlands operation. Delving 

deeper into the operation, E-Plus and BASE are both owned by KPN. 

BASE – Belgium Carrier (MNO) 

Part of KPN 

E-Plus – German Carrier (MNO) 

Part of KPN 

SIMYO (Belgium) 

Owned operation of BASE 

Therefore a brand, not an MVNO 

SIMYO (Germany) 

Owned operation of E-Plus 


SIMYO (Netherlands) 

Owned operation of KPN 




Brief Market Overviews 

Australia and New Zealand 

Australia is an advanced MVNO market with close to 20 MVNOs. The overall mobile market is at near 

saturation point. Operators are now looking to new business models to sustain growth. To note, Boost 

Mobile launched their first MVNO operation in Australia, successfully targeting the youth market, which 

then saw their operation expand into New Zealand. 

New Zealand has two MVNO operations; this reflects the size of New Zealand’s population, just over 

4,000,000. 

Austria 

There are few active MVNOs in Austria, which reflects its population size of 8,100,000. Two of the 

MVNOs, Schwarzfunk and Tele2, also operate outside of Austria, utilising international branding. 

Belgium 

BASE, a Belgian MNO, openly works with MVNOs as part of its core business strategy. BASE supports 

over 10 MVNO operations and with general mobile market saturation levels it is hard to see if there is 

enough room for the existing operations, let alone new entrants to the market. Following the historical and 

political traditions of Belgium, there are close links with French operations. Such as Normaction, who has 

operations in both Belgium and France. 

Bolivia 

According to our research, Bolivia hosts the only South American MVNO, namely COTASMóvil. 

Canada 

The Canadian mobile market has not reached saturation point and their MVNO market has seen few 

willing entrants. This may be due to the overall population size of Canada (32,000,000) compared to its 

neighbour, the USA (295,000,000), and a lack of capital to invest based upon greater rewards to be had 

elsewhere. Within Quebec, Videotron may offer Rogers Communication a channel to gain subscribers, 

utilising a quad-play MVNO offering. Other MVNO operations tie in closely with the USA, namely 7- 

Eleven and Virgin Mobile. 



China 

The Chinese mobile market is rapidly expanding in line with the Chinese economy. According to China’s 

commitment to the World Trade Organisation, foreign companies are now allowed to operate mobile 

voice and data services in and between 17 major Chinese cities including Shanghai, Beijing and 

Guangzhou, by setting up joint ventures with domestic operators who can have up to 49% stakes in the 

joint venture. 

Although Western firms are keen to take advantage of opportunities in China (bearing in mind China’s 

population exceeds 1,300,000,000) there is still a socio-political barrier which compromises Western 

business ideologies. For instance, Google launched their search engine into the Chinese market in 2006, 

but only after agreeing to block material deemed sensitive by the Chinese government. 

Eastern Europe 

Eastern European economies are still developing into consumer markets from their previous closed 

economy statuses. Incumbent MNOs have yet to fully develop their own market shares, which reduces 

the importance of targeting niche consumer market segments. The latter point eradicates the primary 

benefit for a MNO to work with an MVNO, unless the MVNO can stimulate additional market spending via 

mobile content or location based services which the MNO has been unable to do. This is a real 

proposition as Western operators are more in tune with consumer markets, referring specifically to luxury 

based spending as opposed to necessity based spending. 

There are many operations in Eastern Europe with the image of being MVNOs; closer inspection reveals 

these to be branded MNO operations. 

Scandinavia 

The Scandinavian mobile market (Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden) is an advanced market. 

Penetration levels are high and regulators are keen to promote competition to provide consumer choice 

and competitive offerings. Handset manufacturers often use the Scandinavian market as a test bed for 

new technologies. Scandinavia is also the global headquarters of Ericsson and Nokia. 

France 

The incumbent French MNOs actively guard against MVNOs who would solely compete on price. French 

MNOs have enjoyed higher ARPU levels than their European counterparts and it is understandable that 

they do not want to see their market devalued as is the case in many other MVNO active European 

markets. 



ARCEP, the French telecommunications regulator successfully forced incumbent MNOs to open up their 

networks to reasonable MVNO offerings. The result has been the creation of an MVNO market that 

competes on value-added services and the targeting of under penetrated market segments, not the 

proliferation of discount MVNOs that would ultimately cause a price war. ARCEP may wish to see a more 

competitive mobile landscape and may force the case to allow discount MVNOs. 

Virgin Mobile is set to conquer the French MVNO landscape in a joint venture with The Carphone 

Warehouse, utilising the Orange network. Virgin have used consumer interests as a marketing tool in 

other markets, this could be the point of a downwards ARPU trend in France to the benefit of its 

60,000,000 citizens. 

Germany 

The German mobile market is near saturation level and MNOs have required no regulatory 

encouragement to work with MVNOs. In 2005, Mobilcom, Debitel and Talkline, all of which are MVNO 

operations, represented 20% of the German mobile market. 

Hong Kong 

Within Hong Kong, MVNOs must be licensed by the regulator OFTA (Office of the Telecommunications 

Authority). There are currently seven MVNO licenses in place which are largely held by Chinese MNOs. 

As part of 3G spectrum licenses MNOs must make 30% of their network capacity open to MVNO 

operations. 

Our research has found that not all seven licenses are currently being utilised. The seven licence holders 

are Trident Telecom Ventures Ltd, China Motion Telecom (HK) Ltd, China Unicom International Limited, 

China-HongKong Telecom Ltd, CITIC Telecom 1616 Limited, Telecom Digital Mobile Ltd and IMC 

Networks Limited. 

India 

The Indian mobile market is rapidly expanding amongst a population exceeding 1,000,000,000. To date 

there are no MVNOs operating in India, but the Virgin Group’s Richard Branson has been in discussions 

with Indian MNOs with regards to a possible expansion into India. To date no official deals have been 

made, which is largely due to the far from saturated status of the mobile market. 



Ireland 

Ireland currently has five licensed MNOs; Vodafone, O2, 3, Meteor and Smart (yet to be launched). 

Eircom are among many hopeful MVNOs who are unable to find a 3G MNO who will allow them to utilise 

their network. 

The Irish telecommunications regulator, ComReg, has ruled that there is insufficient competition in the 

market. Vodafone and O2 hold a 90% market share. However, ComReg has failed to force the opening of 

the market to MVNOs, even though it has issued MVNO status to several organisations and provided 

these MVNOs with ‘089’ mobile numbers for the use of their prospective customers. It is worth noting that 

Ireland’s population is just over 4,000,000 and is a market already shared by 4/5 MNOs. This is a 

significant factor preventing the regulator from forcing MNOs to open their networks to MVNOs, unless 

collusive practices can be proven to be hindering competition in the Irish market. 

Italy 

Fastweb are currently negotiating with Italian MNOs to facilitate a mobile operation. However, Italian 

MNOs are not permitted to host MVNOs until 2011; this is part of their 3G license agreements and has 

been closely monitored by the Italian authorities. 

Italy is one of the most heavily penetrated mobile markets in Europe, with reported penetration levels 

exceeding 100%. If Italy is to stay in line with EU policies it may find itself having to reconsider its current 

decision of not allowing MVNOs before 2011. 

Japan 

MVNOs are not active in Japan, this follows suit with the rest of Asia. Jupiter Telecommunications 

(J:COM) are the only MVNO we have found to be operating in Japan. Their mobile offering is part of a 

quad-play service, therefore a value-add to the mobile market. The market is yet to see a full MVNO 

operation which adds a real competitive edge to the market. 

Luxembourg 

Luxembourg is a small country located in the heart of the EU, with a population of less than 500,000 

citizens. Our research found one GSM MVNO operation; VOX Mobile, who are also a UMTS MNO. 

Additionally there are two other GSM MNOs, P&T Luxembourg and Tango. VOX Mobile is also 

responsible for the Kiss brand. With such a small overall market, MVNO activity is unlikely to become a 

major activity in Luxembourg, unless ARPU levels can be significantly increased to make niche customer 

segments attractive propositions. 



Malaysia 

Malaysia does not have any active MVNO operations but this is not for a lack of trying. MCATGen 

launched an MVNO service but were quickly terminated when the host MNO CellCom publicly stated that 

it had no such MVNO agreement with MCATGen. The end of 2006 may also see the launch of Asia 

Telecoms as an MVNO. 

Malaysia is the second most penetrated mobile market in South East Asia with a penetration level of 

roughly two-thirds of the market. As with most under-penetrated markets there is little MVNO activity. 

The Netherlands 

The Netherlands has one of the largest quantities of MVNOs in relation to its population size, just over 

16,000,000. There are five MNOs and around twenty MVNOs. Telfort is the leading host network for 

MVNOs in The Netherlands. 

More organisations are looking to enter the Dutch market as MVNOs but it seems there is already not 

enough space for the existing MNOs and MVNOs. 

Portugal 

Mobile penetration levels in Portugal are around 100% and the market is seen as competitive by both 

Anacom (the Portuguese telecommunications regulator) and the EU; ARPU levels are competitive 

compared to EU averages. 

Our research has found two MVNO operations, Rede4 and Uzo. However, the overall parent company for 

Uzo is also the parent company of the MNO. According to Portugal Telecom, TMN (MNO) and Uzo 

(MVNO) are run as autonomous businesses. 

Russia 

Russia remains one of the most centralised markets in the world. Regulation and state involvement are 

still great barriers to a free market Russian economy. Russia is split into administrative regions. Due to 

this, MegaFon, a Russian MNO, also acts as an MVNO in the Magadan and Kamchatka regions. 

Reports suggest that EuroSet, a Russian mobile handset retailer, has completed trials to become 

Russia’s first true MVNO. However, our research also alerted us to Matrix Telecom who already operates 

what their General Director refers to as an MVNO SIM card-based operation on the MegaFon network. 



Singapore 

Singapore is South East Asia’s most active mobile market. In 2002, Virgin Mobile attempted to roll out the 

Virgin Mobile success story but never exceeded 30,000 subscribers. The operation failed and Virgin 

Mobile halted its Asia ambitions. No true MVNOs have since attempted to succeed in the Singapore 

mobile market. 

South Africa 

South Africa has recently seen the launch of Virgin Mobile South Africa via the Cell C network. The South 

African mobile market has not reached near capacity levels. Cell C has taken an unusual step for a MNO 

to work with an MVNO at such an early market stage. Cell C’s choice is likely to be based upon the strong 

success of Virgin Mobile in other countries and the potential additional mobile customers Virgin can 

attract to the mobile market without encroaching on existing market share. 

Spain 

The Spanish mobile market is a heavily penetrated market. There are four licensed MNOs in Spain and 

no operational MVNOs. The telecommunications industry regulator, The Comisión del Mercado de las 

Telecomunicaciones (CMT) is attempting to force Spain’s MNOs into accepting reasonable business 

proposals from prospective MVNOs. Currently there are no relationships either launched or about to 

launch due to a lack of MNO cooperation. CMT has begun issuing licenses to several companies and is 

likely to further intervene in the mobile market to ensure MVNOs can access network infrastructure. 

ARPU levels in Spain are above EU averages. This indicates that Spanish consumers are not benefiting 

to the same financial degrees as the rest of the EU, which in turn strengthens the regulator’s case for 

forcing the market to be opened to MVNOs. With a population of 40,000,000 the incumbent MNOs will 

soon find themselves hard pressed to stop regulatory intervention to make the market more competitive. 

Sweden 

The Swedish mobile market is at near saturation point. Competition between MNOs has left small market 

potential for MVNOs. Sweden reportedly has one full MVNO, Djuice, and many other varying degrees of 

MVNO operations. 

It has been reported that cumulative MVNO efforts in Sweden, although with more than 20 operations, 

are only around 3% of the mobile market share. 



Switzerland 

Switzerland has an advanced mobile market and although not part of the EU, it has subscriber 

penetration levels in line with the EU. The MVNO market is active in Switzerland. 

United Kingdom 

The UK is the birth place of Virgin Mobile UK, cited as being the first true MVNO and the first truly 

successful MVNO. 

The overall UK mobile market has reached saturation levels and is active in terms of the MVNO market. 

Big losses from spectrum license auctions and a lack of consumer 3G take up have been cited as 

reasons for MNOs working with MVNOs in the UK. 

MVNOs in the UK are yet to target the niche market segments as seen in the USA; they have instead 

concentrated on the discount / value market with price being their USP. The strong UK economy attracts, 

and has attracted for a long time, immigration on a global scale but as yet the ethnic mobile market has 

not been targeted. Neither has the grey market (seniors) or any true niche market. There is still room for 

MVNO deployments, but not on a large generic market share basis. 

Disney Mobile is to launch in the UK in 2006 which could lead to controversy. The traditional target 

market for Disney products are children, which have been off limits in regards to marketing mobile 

services in the UK. Disney is yet to comment on how it will or will not promote to such a young and off 

limits market. 

United States of America 

The USA has more MVNOs than any other market. MVNOs within the USA have targeted ethnic 

minorities, senior citizens, parents of early teens and pre-teens, sports enthusiasts, youth markets, 

college students, convenience shoppers, professional drivers and so forth. 

MVNEs have also entered the USA mobile market with companies such as telSPACE and Telispire 

hosting many MVNO operations. 

The large quantity of MVNOs is in line with the USA’s free market and capitalist nature.

The Future 

AUSTAR is due to rollout a WiMAX broadband network in 2006 estimated to cost AU$ 50 million 

(approximately US$ 38m, May 2006). It will be available in around 25 locations serving approximately 

750,000 homes in Australia. 

Another focus for 2006 is increasing the number of subscribers to the New AUSTAR Digital TV 

subscription service and maintaining a low APRU across its subscriber base. 

2006 is not planned to be a year of change for AUSTAR Mobile, with little reference to it in company 

reports and presentation material. Subscriber numbers seem to have peaked in 2004/5 at around 30,500; 

however AUSTAR has always been clear that AUSTAR Mobile is an additional revenue stream and 

benefit to customers, but it is not their core business. 



Case Study – telSPACE, Insight into the MVNE

http://www.telspace.com 

Address: 

10545 Willows Rd NE 

Suite 150, Building A 

Redmond, WA 98052 

USA 

Background 

telSPACE was the first MVNE to hit the USA’s telecommunications market, founded March 1998. The 

company enables any organisation in any industry to sell convergent communications services including 

mobile, Internet, long distance telephony, local calling and VoIP on one ubiquitous operating 

platform. The company provides a turnkey system that enables its MVNO clients to have integrated and 

automated network activations, rating systems, billing systems, tax calculations, order fulfilment, carrier 

QA, customer care and revenue assurance. 

telSPACE currently supports 29 MVNOs including: Telispire, Payless Cellular, BMA / Lucky Wireless, 

Xtreme Mobile, Venture Mobile, Fusion Mobile, US Mobile, Crystal Clear Wireless, Nexus Mobile, Simpro 

PCS and Covista. 

On the wireless side, telSPACE has integrated with and has 100% automation with Sprint, Verizon, and 

Cingular (the three main MNOs in the USA). The company has patented technology allowing it to support 

prepaid services for all network operators. 

telSPACE has a consulting division, Telmage Consulting, which helps its clients price and differentiate its 

services in the marketplace. These consulting services come complimentary with the telSPACE billing 

system. 

The telSPACE back office systems are built and supported by AT&T Wireless’, Nordstrom’s and 

Southwestern Bell’s mobile executives as well as senior ex-Microsoft engineers. 

The telSPACE operating platform provides its clients the ability to market communication services as 

specified by the client while also conforming operationally to system limitations. 



Functionality 

The telSPACE system has the following functionality: 

• Access to multiple MNOs and the ability to integrate with virtually any facility carrier for any 

product type 

• Ability to automate all carrier functions needed to activate and support a customer 

• Private Label Automated web-based Activation / Replenishment Platform 

• Private Label Automated IVRs 

• Able to integrate PINs or PINless marketing strategies 

• Post-paid and or prepaid billing and rating for all three quoted MNOs 

• Carrier QA and revenue assurance 

• Internal company owned, not outsourced, customer service call centre 

• Customer Service / Customer Relations Management module so clients can perform their own 

customer service. telSPACE has also built its own call centre to handle the customer service 

function for its clients 

• Web service available to activate and support customers if client has an existing back office 

• Management Information System for easy access to important information 

• Internal marketing group for staff to create brochures, logos, banners / footers, and PIN cards 



• Provision for training (Dealer and Client) 

• ACH / Credit card gateways 

• International Long Distance Gateways with least cost routing with multiple tier-1 carriers 

The telSPACE telecom billing system platform has been eight years in development and has created a 

product unique in the industry. It allows any company to private label communication services and 

become a VNO for any communications service in a matter of 2-4 weeks with minimal start up costs. It is 

a full turnkey system with the ability to interface with existing systems. 



telSPACE also has a unique vMVNO strategy. This strategy allows telSPACE clients to launch very 

quickly with Sprint, Verizon, and Cingular and later determine which MNO(s) are most efficient to deal 

direct with. If and when telSPACE clients decide to go direct, their business is not disrupted and is 

seamlessly migrated to their chosen MNO’s system. This strategy could save an MVNO millions of dollars 

and bring their lead time to market down from notionally 12-18 months to just 2-3 weeks. 



"There is incredible demand in the marketplace from consumers and channels of distribution for 

telSPACE's back office network and the telSPACE billing services. We offer our clients one ubiquitous 

back office that can integrate into any existing facility carrier. telSPACE's ability to aggregate the volume 

of multiple clients allows the company to significantly reduce its costs and provide a very cost efficient 

product to its clients." 

CEO of telSPACE, Paris Holt 

"There is growing demand for technology integration between carriers, MVNOs, and the end customer, 

and we have developed a completely rules-based operating platform where we can efficiently deliver, in 

literally a matter of weeks, a turnkey solution including access to facility carriers, customer service, 

fulfilment, payment processing and even a fully-loaded POS activation platform." 

CTO of telSPACE, Ryan Reed 

The Future 

What’s new and coming soon for telSPACE 

• telSPACE spends a great deal of its corporate profit on research and development. This 

reinvestment back into the company allows telSPACE to maintain its competitive advantage. 

• The company is sponsoring the 2007 MVNO Summit. 

• Integrating and launching with Rogers Wireless in Canada and in the process of preparing its 

code base for international expansion outside of North America. 

• Launching a revolutionary prepaid program using Verizon’s network.

Case Study – Virgin Mobile UK

UK 

Background 

Virgin Mobile is a major provider of mobile communications services within the UK with more than four 

million customers, 500,000 of which were won within their first year of operation. Virgin launched MVNO 

operations in November 1999 using One2One‘s network in a 50-50 joint venture between One2One and 

The Virgin Group. In 2002, Deutsche Telecom’s T-Mobile took over One2One, significantly changing the 

nature of the MVNO relationship. Following a hostile working relationship, in January 2004 Virgin and 

T-Mobile signed a non-exclusive minimum ten year term telecommunications supply agreement and 

Virgin Mobile purchased T-Mobile’s share of the MVNO. Twelve month turnover as of 31 st March 2004 

stood at GBP 487,600,000. 

Virgin Mobile employs more than 1,400 staff on four sites in Trowbridge, London, Daventry and 

Middlesbrough and has been voted one of the top 50 places to work in Britain for two years running in an 

annual Financial Times survey. 

Internationally, Virgin Mobile is also active in Australia, The United States, Canada and France. In an 

attempt to expand into Asia, Virgin Mobile launched in Singapore as a joint venture with SingTel but 

withdrew due to a lack of customers soon after launch. Virgin Mobile look set to launch in South Africa 

later in 2006 and is in discussions with carriers in China and India in the hope of expanding the success 

of the Virgin Mobile brand into these rapidly emerging markets. 

Virgin Mobile’s success has been attributed to their marketing strategy of identifying an under 

represented market, it just so happens that this market turned into a massive mobile market. Virgin 

brands target the young and trendy, within this market they are an established brand name. Virgin Mobile 

offered (and still offers) this market a mobile service with no strings attached on a pre-paid basis, 

something very important in the UK as under-18s cannot hold contract based services due to their legal 

status of not being capable of having a legal responsibility for any debt in their name. While contracts can 

be set up with under-18s, there is no legal basis for recovering debts arising due to such contracts. 



Key Management 

Chief Executive Officer - Thomas Alexander 

Tom Alexander was a founder of Virgin Mobile. As CEO of Virgin Mobile he was instrumental in the 

launch and development of the Company. Alexander has over 18 years experience in the 

telecommunications industry. Prior to Virgin Mobile, Alexander was the Deputy Commercial Director for 

BTCellnet (which became O2). He will be stepping down on the conclusion of the NTL takeover but will 

remain as an advisor to Virgin Mobile for the rest of 2006. 

Chief Financial Officer - Alan Gow 

Alan Gow joined as CFO of Virgin Mobile in February 1999 from One-2-One. He had joined One2One in 

1995 and was part of the team that put together the original Virgin / T-Mobile joint venture. Gow will 

become CEO of Virgin Mobile, replacing Tom Alexander when the NTL takeover is complete. 

Commercial Director - Jonathan Steel 

Jonathan Steel joined Virgin Mobile in February 1999, as Marketing Director, and was responsible for the 

Virgin Mobile proposition to customers. In 2003, Steel was appointed Commercial Director to oversee the 

company’s strategic and commercial development.

Operations 

Virgin Mobile launched as a 'No Strings' offering – ‘No Catches, No Line-Rental, No Rip-Off’ with clear 

pricing and minimum hassle. Handsets can be purchased by telephone, online, in Virgin Mobile Stores, 

Virgin Megastores and at WHSmiths. Selected ranges are also available in approximately 5,000 high 

street outlets including The Link, Dixons, Comet, ASDA, John Lewis, and Toys R Us. This means that the 

MVNO’s offering is placed directly alongside those of MNOs on the high-street. 

Growth in the Virgin Mobile customer base has been strong with one million customers in June 2001, 

three million in August 2003 and four million in 2004. Virgin Mobile customers were found to be the mostsatisfied 

in the pre-paid sector for two years running in 2004 and 2005, according to a survey by J.D. 

Power and Associates. Virgin intends to increase ARPU using new propositions and value-added mobile 

content services such as ‘Virgin Mobile Bites”. Bites is a service aimed at giving Virgin Mobile users 

something to do with their time when they are bored – at a cost. 

Virgin Mobile’s marketing has been high profile and successful, winning several awards including ‘Best 

Marketing, Brand or PR Campaign – Commended’ for ‘The Devil Makes Work for Idle Thumbs’ in 2004. 

Unlike small MVNOs Virgin Mobile had access to funds to run national advertising campaigns using all 

forms of media. Virgin Mobile’s popular advert starring Wyclef Jean was recognised as one of the funniest 

British television commercials in the APA awards. More recently Virgin Mobile used model Kate Moss in 

television commercials launching the new Virgin Mobile contract featuring the Motorola RAZR V3i phone. 

This illustrates Virgin Mobile’s intention to work with the latest handset offerings to the market, 

maintaining the trendy theme. 

NTL is due to takeover Virgin Mobile, July 2006. The current management team have been asked to 

continue within their roles, the current CEO has chosen to move on and will be replaced by the CFO. 

NTL’s long terms goals are unknown. NTL is a UK based telecommunications company retailing cable 

TV, fixed line telephony and Internet services. NTL has previously bid for spectrum licenses but failed. 

With the acquisition of Virgin Mobile, NTL now have the option of offering its subscriber base quad-play 

services or fixed mobile services following BT’s current offering of BT Fusion. T-Mobile may be in favour 

of this venture as Vodafone are the host MNO for BT’s mobile operation.

Due to Launch – No Profile Information 

During our research we have found significant information to suggest that the operations below are more 

than just speculation. Although we have been unable to profile these potential MVNOs we decided that 

their inclusion, albeit in a brief form, still adds value to this directory. 

Baron 

Cited as being a luxury MVNO for the Dutch market. The only official information so far is as follows: 

Baron, Wamberg 35-37, 1083 CW, Amsterdam | http://www.baron.nl | info@baron.nl 

BT Espana 

Reported to have an MVNO license but Spain’s MNOs are still hostile and refusing to allow a market 

entry. 

China-Hongkong Telecom Ltd 

Awarded an MVNO license on 29 th April 2004 but there is no evidence of an MVNO operation. The only 

official information we have so far is an address: Rm 3813-15, Hong Kong Plaza, 188 Connaught Road 

West, Hong Kong. 

IMC Networks Limited 

Awarded an MVNO license on 26th April 2005 but we have been unable to find an active mobile 

operation. Their address is Room 2601A, Yen Sheng Centre, 64 Hoi Yuen Road, Kwun Tong, Kowloon, 

Hong Kong. 

Jazztel 

Has applied for an MVNO license in Spain but with other MVNO operations unable to penetrate the 

Spanish MNOs it could be some time before an active operation. 

Tele2 Spain 

Tele2 were recently quoted as saying that they would launch by the end of 2006. Tele2 has operations 

cross Europe and further country additions to its service would bring it closer to being a pan-European 

MVNO. 

Telecable 

Telecable is a media company in Spain providing cable TV, fixed telecommunications and Internet 

services. It has acquired an MVNO license from the Spanish regulator but as battles to force MNOs to 

work with MVNOs have gone on since 2002, it is unlikely that a launch is near. Telecable benefits from 

targeting the quadruple play market, which would add weight to any MVNO proposition.

Rumours – No Profile Information 

During our research we have found speculative information suggesting that the operations below are 

likely to consider MVNO status at some point in the future. Although we have been unable to profile these 

companies fully we decided that their inclusion, albeit in a brief form, still adds value to this directory. 

Apple 

Multiple industry sources have said Apple will launch an MVNO in 2006. Apple’s only official intention in 

2006 is to launch a mobile handset. This follows on from the massive success of the Apple iPod. It is 

worth noting that all Apple MVNO rumours come from speculation due to the handset launch. 

ASDA 

Rumours suggest that ASDA (UK supermarket) is contemplating launching a mobile service. Within the 

UK, Tesco and Sainsbury’s already operate their own mobile enterprises. The owners of ASDA, Wal- 

Mart, has reportedly entered the German MVNO market with Mango Mobile. A USA based Wal-Mart 

MVNO is also widely rumoured. 

BT Mobile Ireland 

Following on from BT UK’s MVNO venture, BT Ireland (formally ESAT) could look to the triple-play market 

to build on its revenue from existing subscribers. 

The Carphone Warehouse Ireland 

With MVNO operations in the UK and France, The Carphone Warehouse is likely to want to develop 

operations in Ireland. The company already has a significant retail store presence in Ireland, selling 

offerings from existing Irish MNOs. 

easyMobile in Europe 

Following the launch of easyMobile in the UK, Germany and The Netherlands, easyMobile plan to launch 

into other European countries; including The Czech Republic, France, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, 

Portugal, Slovenia and Spain. There is no official news from easyMobile on any further launches as yet. 

Mr PrePaid, USA 

http://www.mrprepaid.com is currently a reseller of pre-paid services. 

Ryanair 

CEO of Irish budget airline Ryanair, Micheal O’Leary, announced in May 2005 that they were in talks with 

mobile companies with regards to entering Europe as an MVNO but declined to divulge any names or 

details. Other sources have stated that Ryanair were in talks with operators in Ireland, Germany, the UK 

and Italy with regards to launching MVNO services, but that they are in no hurry to tie up a deal. 



Tele2 - Germany 

Tele2 signed an MVNO agreement with VIAG Interkom (now O2) in December 2001, but the service did 

not appear. More recently in 2005, Tele2 were reportedly in advanced discussions with E-Plus to become 

an MVNO, but there has been no official word from Tele2. 

T-Mobile - Ireland 

T-Mobile had been mentioned as being potentially interested in entering the Irish mobile market as an 

MVNO, at the same time as other companies such as MinuteBuyer in 2005. 

Universal Music – USA 

Following the launch of Universal Music’s MVNO in France, it is expected that they will also enter the 

USA market. In August 2005 it was reported that Universal Music Group had partnered with SingleTouch 

Interactive to provide a customised phone, MoveU. The phone was due to be retailed in Wal-Mart for $99 

and packaged with Sprint’s prepaid service, but has not been mentioned since. 

Virgin Mobile – China 

It has been reported that Virgin Mobile is planning a move into China and that they are in talks with China 

Unicom over the establishment of an MVNO joint venture later in 2006. The joint venture has been 

dubbed ‘Virgin United Communications’ and will be launched in Shanghai. 

According to China’s commitment to the WTO, foreign companies are now allowed to operate mobile 

voice and data services in and between 17 major Chinese cities including Shanghai, Beijing and 

Guangzhou. This can be achieved by setting up joint ventures with domestic operators. The non-domestic 

entity can have up to a 49% stake in the joint venture. The Virgin Group has so far been tight-lipped on 

details of a move into China. 

Virgin Mobile – India 

In March 2003, Sir Richard Branson’s Virgin Atlantic launched a new direct service between London and 

Mumbai. Speaking in Mumbai Sir Richard Branson said he was exploring the possibility of bringing Virgin 

Mobile to India. Reports suggested that Virgin Mobile were in talks with three Indian MNOs (Airtel, Tata 

and state-owned MTNL) but there is no official release from Virgin Mobile.
