www.WirelessFederation.com/news: Russia added 2million new subscribers in July, half of which were added by MegaFon. As many as one in three Russians have more than one SIM card – 199.9 million were in use at the end of July.
MTS and VimpelCom on the other hand added 511,000 and 599,000 new subscribers respectively. However, MTS gains came from outside Moscow. In the Russian capital, the total number of mobile subscribers fell since MTS shed 504,000 subscribers, far more than the number of Muscovites who signed on with VimpelCom or MegaFon.
