O2

Telefónica Germany GmbH & Co. oHG, operating under the commercial brand O2, is a major mobile network operator in Germany, a key player in the European telecommunications landscape. Identified by its Mobile Country Code (MCC) of 262 and Mobile Network Code (MNC) of 11, O2 provides a comprehensive range of mobile services to millions of customers across the country, including voice, data, and IoT solutions. As one of the "Big Three" mobile carriers of Germany, alongside Deutsche Telekom (T-Mobile) and Vodafone, O2 competes fiercely in a market known for its advanced infrastructure and demanding consumer base. Beyond basic mobile connectivity, O2 has significantly invested in expanding its 4G LTE and 5G networks, aiming to deliver faster and more reliable mobile internet access throughout Germany. The company has actively participated in spectrum auctions to acquire the necessary bandwidth for these upgrades. While sometimes perceived as having a slightly later start in 4G rollout compared to its competitors, O2 is aggressively catching up in 5G coverage, focusing on both urban and rural areas. Additionally, O2 offers a variety of bundled services, including fixed-line internet and television options, often packaged together to provide attractive value to its customers. A strong retail presence and active community engagement initiatives contribute to O2's brand recognition and market position in Germany.
