T-Mobile International AG was a German holding company for Deutsche Telekom AG's mobile communications subsidiaries. From 2003 to 2007 T-Mobile International was one of Deutsche Telekom's segments beside the segments of 'Broadband/Fixnet', 'Business Customers' and 'Group HQ and Shared Services'. T-Mobile International AG lost relevance when Deutsche Telekom transformed its structure to adopt a regional setup (Germany, Europe, USA) in 2009 by combining its previously separated fixed and mobile subsidiaries to form integrated local businesses.
T-Mobile International AG was based in Bonn, Germany and its subsidiaries operated GSM, UMTS and LTE-based cellular networks in Europe, the United States, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The company had financial stakes in mobile operators in both Central and Eastern Europe.
While currently the T-Mobile is used only in the US, Austria, Poland, Netherlands and the Czech Rupublic, back then brand was present in 13 European countries: Austria, Croatia (as Hrvatski telekom), Czech Republic, Albania, Germany (as Telekom), Hungary, Macedonia, Montenegro, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania and Slovakia, as well as the United States, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
