South Africa mobile operator Cell C said that its subscriber base has passed 13 million for the first time. Acting CEO Jose Dos Santos said that Cell C had achieved more than 1.2 million gross connections in October, with 400,000 net additions. The operator earlier said it signed up 1 million gross customers in September and in July. The company told BusinessTech that it fell marginally short of reaching that target in August.
Cell C also announced that it has exceeded its target of 100 new sites in Gauteng before the end of November, adding 110 in the province as part of an effort to alleviate its under-pressure network. Santos said that 110 new sites were on air, taking total sites on the group's network to 4,040. Of the 4,040 sites, 198 are 2G-only, with the rest (3,842) being 3G. Santos said that he expected an additional 340-360 sites to be on air by May-June 2014.
