Decision of the Riigikogu "Making a proposal to the Government of the Republic to develop a plan for increasing competition in the mobile communications market and accelerating number mobility"

Summary

In the explanatory letter, it is justified that the current pricing and number portability arrangements on the Estonian communications market do not guarantee sufficient transparency and equal opportunities for consumers. According to the statistics of the Consumer Protection and Technical Supervision Agency, more than 50% of mobile number porting initiatives were discontinued in 2024, which suggests that existing telecommunications companies will only offer discounts when the customer wants to leave. Such practice suggests that many loyal customers pay more for services than new subscribers or those who express a desire to change operators. It is a phenomenon that damages the principles of fair and effective competition. Making number portability faster - preferably in real time or at least within one business day - allows consumers to easily and quickly switch service providers, which creates real price pressure and a fairer competitive environment.
