BRE Bank to offer mobile phone services via Polkomtel

"We do not have ambitions to just become a virtual mobile operator. Our aim is to give our current clients added value and to earn on it," declared BRE Bank president Slawomir Lachowski. In 2007 mBank mobile wants to have 162,500 clients, which will ensure a profit of zl.1 million. Just a year later these figures are to stand at 312,500 and zl.13 million respectively and in 2009 - 450,000 and zl.23 million. The contract between mBank and Polkomtel was signed on December 6. Polkomtel will sell connections at wholesale prices and service the billing system. According to analysts, MVNOs might take up to 12% of the mobile market in a year or two. (Puls Biznesu, p. 5) A.K.
