Australian-owned supplier of retail and wholesale telecommunications, People Telecom, has signed a two-year agreement with M2 Telecommunications Group for the wholesale supply of Optus 3G and GSM mobile services.
People Telecom’s CEO, John Stanton, said under the agreement People Telecom will be able to offer 3G and GSM mobile and Wireless2Go wireless broadband services to existing and new customers. “The agreement provides stronger operating margins for People Telecom’s existing mobile business, which will assist our earnings growth,” he said.Stanton said further details about People Telecom’s multi-network mobile arrangements will emerge in the coming weeks. This new agreement will pave the way for the telco to become a mobile virtual network operator.“[This offers] our customers the flexibility to operate on a range of different major mobile networks across Australia,” said Stanton.
