TalkTalk to launch MVNO in UK

UK internet service provider TalkTalk, which recently demerged from the Carphone Warehouse, said Monday it had struck a deal with Vodafone wholesale over the launch of an MVNO.

TalkTalk will now be able to offer mobile telephony and internet alongside its fixed line broadband offerings in the UK. The first offerings will be available in the autumn, the company said.

Carphone Warehouse already has an MVNO set up with Vodafone under the TalkMobile brand.

The UK has six main MVNOs led by Virgin Mobile with just over three million subscribers at the end of June, while Tesco Mobile and LycaMobile are both fighting it out with around two million users. BT, Carphone and IDT Mobile all have considerably less subscribers.
