MVNO-mania in Spain!

After Carrefour, Happy Movil, Lebara and Simyo, it's time for a new MVNO in Spain: Jazztel.

Spain was one of the few countries in EU still with no MVNOs and very high tariffs till few months ago, but it seems the newcomers (along with Yoigo) are doing very well to the market!

Spain is a very wanted market. It would be interesting to know how many spanish people have mvno's sims

not more, I suppose... since Yoigo has a small customer base, I don't think that Mvnos are going better

Simyo Spain has an official blog

These MVNO's are certainly improving conditions there. I travel a lot to Spain and used to be quite dismayed at the choice and tariffs of prepaids from what I can olnly describe as the "Monopoly-carriers". Whilst tariffs have not only become better thanks to MVNO's, their call centres have also improved. e.g. I was pleasantly surprised when I called the Yoigo CS team the other day and wanted to change from Prepaid Tarjetta Tarrifa 1 (€6/month min.spend) to Prepaid Tarjetta Tarrifa 2 (€0/month min spend)... I was struggling to bring my point across in broken Spanish. The CS adviser then put me through to an adviser who spoke fluent English... which in my opinion is a marked improvemement for Spanish teleCS. (Though obviously not a god-given right to expect it!). I also have got the English service menus (e.g. Cost notification in English) and voicemail prompts set up on my Yoigo. I am quite impressed!

Hallo everybody!

There are even more virtual operator here for example :

pepephone

eroski movil
http://www.eroskimovil.es/geomv/c/pub/es/index.jsp

dia movil
http://www.xatakamovil.com/2007/11/1...-el-omv-de-dia

All the virtutual operators are described at wikipedia site, but not all allready started to provide services.

MVNO in spanish is OMV (operador movil virtual). If you want I can help you upgrade the spanish operators' list.

If you have more questions I give you my e-mail address jaaho@poczta.fm
