- Mobitel (Iraq-Kurdistan)
-
Mobitel Iraq is the first mobile 3G operator in Iraq. It was launched commercially on February 2007. Mobitel was licensed by the Kurdistan Regional Government[citation needed] of Iraq to operate in all Kurdish regions. Mobitel currently covers Erbil Governorate and Duhok Governorate and is in the planning phase to cover Sulaimaniyah Governorate. In July 2007, Mobitel was the first operator in Iraq to start 3.5G services.
Services
Mobitel offers basic 3G services such as broadband Internet, video calling and others. Mobitel was facing interconnection problems with major telecom operators in Iraq. Although their license states clearly that there is an obligation from other operators to connect directly to them some "famous" mobile company in Arbil and Duhok was not providing this interconnection which caused a low usage of Mobitel.
