Walmart's offers haven't even been promoted here in Germany to begin with which is the most effective way of making people aware of what you have to offer. Tchibo has become less aggressive by scaling down the number of TV commercials lately. Simyo and BASE are the only two MVNOs which are constantly seen on RTL, Pro7, Sat1, VOX, Kabel Eins and RTL II.

Secondly, the reason why MVNOs continue to pop up is because E-Plus (10 million) and O2 (10 million) have 1/3 the number of subscribers than T-Mobile (29.5 million) and Vodafone (29 million). This means their networks have more capacity. Furthermore, E-Plus hosts the most MVNOs since they gained additional spectrum from the 2002 redistribution of Quam's assets (both GSM and UMTS) when Quam was forced to declare bankruptcy.
