Czech telecoms regulator says may cap wholesale mobile data prices

The Czech telecoms regulator CTU may cap wholesale mobile data prices charged by three main operators to virtual providers, its chief told business daily Hospodarske Noviny.

The main providers concerned are O2 Czech Republic, T-Mobile and Vodafone.

“I believe we will propose a ceiling for wholesale prices at which the three current large operators sell to virtual operators,” the daily quoted CTU Chairwoman Hana Tovarkova as saying.

“The regulation may last for three to four years depending on the results of an analysis that we will complete in the second half of September.” Reuters
