Welcome to the Telecompaper Mobile MVNO/SP List. This is a fairly comprehensive listing of MVNOs (Mobile Virtual Network Operators) and mobile SPs in the world today, as well as relevant news. Where possible, the defunct or purchased entities are listed as well. You can suggest corrections or additions using our online form. Only announced, launched or rumoured ventures are named on this page. MVNEs are listed by country after MVNO/SPs. See below for general MVNEs, a news archive, some MVNO resources, etc.

Note: Despite different countries and regulatory bodies having different definitions, we have decided to officially list in the following manner:

  • MVNOs - Mobile Service Providers having their own switching infrastructure.
  • ESPs - "Enchanced" Mobile Service providers having more branded customer interfaces.
  • SPs - Traditional Mobile Service providers providing sales, marketing and customer support facilities.

Where unclear to us, we have listed "unknown". If you have updated information about the companies listed here, please suggest a change.
