5G Fanfare Will overpaying for spectrum come back to haunt the UK's big 4?
2018-04-06 02:00:00| Total Telecom industry news
Collectively, Britain's big four mobile network operators spent more than £1.35 billion at Ofcom's 5G spectrum auction – a princely sum but significantly less than the £2.3 billion raised in the 4G auction of 2013. Indeed, the figure pales into near insignificance when compared to the absurdly bloated figure of £22.5 billion raised in 2000 for the 3G licenses. Despite the comparatively low revenues generated, analysts are hailing the auction as a success, with the final figure of £1.35 billion beating most analysts' predictions by around 35 per cent. So now that the network operators have parted with their hard-earned cash, is Britain actually any closer to rolling out 5G services? The short answer is no…read more on TotalTele.com »

The initial phase of the UK's 5G spectrum has come to a close, with four operators securing 34 lots of spectrum across two bands. Vodafone, O2, Three and EE all won large amounts of spectrum at the auction, while the fifth qualified bidder, Airspan Spectrum Holdings, walked away with nothing (although they are expected to make more serious bids in the 28GHz spectrum auction, which will be held at a much later date). The £1.35 billion raised far exceeded the predicted amount of £1 billion – £1.1 billion proposed by a number of analysts in the run up to the auction…read more on TotalTele.com »
