Russian fixed IP telephony and converged communications provider MCN Telecom – which activated its Light MVNO in Moscow, St Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Krasnodar, Novosibirsk and Rostov-on-Don in December 2017 – has announced that it is another step closer to becoming a Full MVNO, after taking receipt of its own mobile network code (MNC), ‘37’. In a press release, MCN noted that the MNC will allow it to establish ‘a more harmonious relationship with the host operator’, Tele2 Russia.
