    MTS pens signalling agreement with BICS

    -

    MTS (OJSC Mobile TeleSystems), the largest mobile operator in Russia, Eastern Europe and Central Asia, is now using BICS as signalling provider for its group companies.

    Starting in July this year, MTS began using BICS as the global signalling gateway for its daughter companies in Russia, Ukraine, Armenia and Uzbekistan, in order to ensure continuity of services for its 95 million strong mobile subscribers while travelling and using their mobile phones all around the globe.

    “We are very proud to have been selected as MTS’ signalling partner, providing the necessary global reach to their customers with the best in class voice and mobile data capabilities while roaming,” said Nicholas Nikrouyan, Chief Commercial Officer at BICS. “We are confident that BICS will add significant value to MTS’ growth strategy and ambition to provide their customers with the highest level of customer experience wherever they are around the world. This new agreement is indicative of the commitment both companies have to further enhance and strengthen our partnership for years to come.”

    “We are keen to have a strategic partnership with BICS to enhance our roaming relations and to be in touch with future trends. Also we hope that our business relationships will proceed to prosper in the same fruitful and mutually beneficial manner”, said Evgeny Moskalev, Director of Interconnect, Roaming, Internet & Data services at MTS.
