Yesterday, P4 finally established its national roaming agreement with Polkomtel (Plus/Sami Swoi). Voda's resistance is broken :red_bandana: :voda:

Also yesterday, PTC (Era/Heyah) signed a MVNO agreement with the country's second largest commercial television Polsat. However, there are slight rumours that Polsat will just buy Heyah and will turn it from "fake" into "true" MVNO. Anyway, PTC also announced another MVNO agreement to be signed in the nearest future.

These are great news!

After the "great revolution" of 2004 the mobile market in Poland was quite still, if not negative with the introducion of Orange which highered quite a lot of rates and tariffs...

Well, if you mean rapid price falls, in fact it was still, but after introducing 1/1 debiting and national calls for at most 0.60-0.80 LN/min, mobile calling became really affordable for most people. Don't also forget that what I report here is mainly about prepaid market whereas there are many changes in postpaid market (larger packets of free minutes/message at the same price, data tariffs, etc.).
Orange rebranding wasn't a price hike very much (the basic tariffs remained the same like in Idea) but some extra packets and similar stuff are in fact worse than in Idea.

The market is "still" also in the sense it's still growing . Each of the three operators exceeded 10 million users (but including unused yet still active prepaid SIMs laying in drawers ).
