  16-03-2018 14:45

  16-03-2018 14:20
  Three has released the numbers for 2017 and they are pretty impressive, especially CAPEX, where it has outspent the majority of the industry.
  Total revenues increased to £2.4 billion, a year-on-year boost of 7%, while total subscribers were up 10% to just over 10 million. 6.9 million of these subscribers were the attractive and lucrative postpaid kind.
