NEW Everywhere Everything (T-Mob/Orange/3) calling abroad

Interesting concept !

The three owners of the Everywhere Everything backhaul network now share equal international calling costs & profits ? whilst we consumers cheaper international calling....

No co-incidence a independent telco has been chosen to represent all 3 E/E companies.

I didn't think Three were part of Everything Everywhere, just T-Mobile and Orange. Isn't EE a joint venture between France Telecom and Deutsche Telekom, whereas Three are owned by Hutchison.

Mobile Broadband Network Limited ( http://www.mbnl.co.uk/) owned 50/50 by 3 and T-Mobile (effectively sharing data/operational costs) is now owned 50/50 by Everything Everywhere & 3 thats why 3 customers now have FULL data access on Orange when roaming as Orange/3/T-Mob will all use the same base station sites and backhaul data transport to each carriers service servers.

EE/3 have given shortcode use to a independant international provider, no doubt for a good % of profit, but its better than the rates each provide in thier own priceplans.

Thanks. That's very interesting. 3p a minute to Canada might be just the ticket as I have a number of friends over there.
