Etecsa limits activation of new mobile lines in Cuba
Friday 3 October 2014 | 22:04 CET

Cuba's state-owned telecommunications operator Etecsa is limiting the
activation of new mobile phone lines in the provinces of Havana and
Holguin, reports AIN. The operator has not provided any explanation for
these limitations. One of the possible explanations is the recent
activation of e-mail access from mobile phones by Cubacel, which boosted
demand. Another reason for the increased demand, which exceeds the
current capacity of Cubacel, could be the offer that reduced the monthly
fee for the mobile line from USD 10 to USD 5.
