Bouygues Telecom Loses 3G License Appeal

The European Court of Justice has ruled that the French government was correct in retrospectively lowering the 3G license fees it charged to France Telecom and Vivendi's SFR. In 2000, the French government sold two 3G licenses to France Telecom and SFR for EUR4.95 billion each. A later attempt in 2002 to sell the remaining two licenses raised just EUR619 million from Bouygues Telecom. The fourth license remains unsold to this day.  more
