Free grows revenue share of shrinking French mobile market, may face new challenge from Altice

The French mobile revenue pie continues to get smaller, while Free Mobile takes a larger share of it, according to the latest figures from Telecompaper. The smallest operator showed the strongest growth, in both customer numbers and revenues, in 2014, but could soon face a new challenge if Altice continues to consolidate the market.
