TDC Launches Norwegian MVNO

TDC Mobile has launched an MVNO service in Norway through TDC Song Norge. This has been made possible with the MVNO agreement TDC Mobile entered into with Telenor, last autumn. The agreement covers both 2G and 3G services. The company is planning to offer pan-Nordic and convergent services covering landlines and mobile services.

"Our Norwegian business customers have been mobile customers at other operators until now. Now that we can offer integrated convergence solutions through our own mobile operation in Norway, we expect that more of these customers will choose TDC as their aggregate supplier of communications solutions in the Nordic region. We further expect to attract new customers with activities in both Denmark and Norway," says Mads Middelboe.

As an example, a contract has already been signed with Norwegian Orkla on supply of solutions for both landline and mobile telephony, and data in the four Nordic countries. A new large public sector customer is the municipality of Bergen, which is to have all its approximately 450 branches provided with all types of telephony and data.

"It is part of TDC's expansion strategy to further strengthen and develop its presence in the Nordic region. In this perspective, the MVNO agreement with Telenor is yet another step in the right direction," says Mads Middelboe."
