The @EU_Commission's proposal to prolong the Roam-Like-At-Home regime is good news but some points such as the level of wholesale roaming caps still need to be improved. Find out more here: https://t.co/0gOaSxvYCT

[MVNO Europe @MVNO_Europe]

Fair wholesale access, a strong SMP regime and a genuine Single Market for #IoT, #M2M and connected vehicles are essential to Europe’s digital future.
The EU must choose #openness over #consolidation and ensure every operator can innovate and invest.

[MVNO Europe @MVNO_Europe]

@MVNO_Europe urges the @EU_Commission to keep competition at the heart of the #DNA.
Deregulation and market concentration would undermine Europe’s innovation, affordability and industrial competitiveness.

Investigate restrictions imposed by #OSs on MVNOs, prioritise wholesale #access & #competition when working on the @EU_Commission #whitepaper on digital infrastructure and the #EECC review, and advance its report on #roaming is what @transatel asked today to @BERECeuropaeu

Today #MVNO Europe is participating at the MVNOs World Congress in Amsterdam! Two of our members are speaking in a panel discussion on #networkfees at 10 am, including representants of the Dutch NRA, #BEUC and #GSMA.

[MVNO Europe @MVNO_Europe]

MVNO Europe, together with other stakeholders including #BEUC, https://t.co/i9tvaxPN4K, EDRi and VOD coalition, signed a joint statement against #network #fees. Such a mechanism threatens #consumers' rights, costs, and freedom of choice.

MVNO Europe, together with #BREKO, #BUGLAS, and #VKU, calls on the German #Bundesnetzagentur to utilize the pro-competitive potential of the #spectrum allocation and strengthen #consumer interests by imposing a #MVNO and service provider obligation.

MVNO Europe welcomes #2023 with a set of new challenges. The #network investment contributions debate, #emergency communications, #Roaming, #BEREC work and more! MVNO Europe keeps on standing for innovation and fair competition in the #telecom market.

https://t.co/HwFFDjUjDV

[MVNO Europe @MVNO_Europe]

With 2G/3G sunset, #consumers risk to be unable to call “112” unless improvements on handset derived information and compatibility with VoLTE. The upcoming Delegated Act on #emergency #communications is a great opportunity to address these challenges.
https://t.co/Cl2LPBRIxu

[MVNO Europe @MVNO_Europe]

MVNO #Europe fears that the suggested #network #investment contributions to finance #telecom infrastructure would seriously harm #competition on telecom markets, #MVNOs, and ultimately both #consumers and business users. Check out our position paper here.
