Watchdog postpones AIS 2G-900MHz switch-off date to Dec 22

The National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission has deferred the date it will switch off the 2G-900MHz service of Advanced Info Service (AIS) to December 22 from the originally planned November 19, NBTC secretary-general Takorn Tantasith said

The decision follows its telecom committee’s resolution on Monday to put off the auction date for 900MHz licences from November 12 to December 15.
 The auction date for 1800MHz licences remains unchanged at November 11.
 Some 2.2 million subscribers of AIS’s 2G-900MHz service are yet to migrate to other networks after the operator’s 900MHz concession under TOT ended on September 30.
