T-Mobile, Orange to offer a part of spectrum for sale in UK

www.WirelessFederation.com/news: A part of the combined radio spectrum has been offered to be sold by Deutsche Telekom AG and France T©l©com SA besides providing some network-sharing guarantees to allay competition concerns over their U.K. mobile joint venture.

Instead of facing a lengthy antitrust probe by U.K. regulators, the companies consider European Commission’s antitrust clearance a preferred option.

The key players in the U.K. mobile sector have been asked by the commission to see whether the proposals reduce rivals’ concerns over their impact on competition.
