TeleTu (formerly Tele2 Italia) was an Italian telecommunications company that provided fixed-line telephony services. [1] [2]
Founded in 1999 by Tele2, in 2007 it was sold to Vodafone, [1] which incorporated it in 2012, [3] starting a process of divesting the brand, completed in 2015. [4]
In April 1999 Tele2 founded its Italian branch, Tele2 Italia.[ citation needed]
On 6 October 2007, as also happened in Spain, it was acquired by Vodafone. [5] [1] This operation is completed in December. The company thus changed its name to Opitel, temporarily maintaining the Tele2 brand.
No longer being linked to Tele2, from 1 January 2010 the operator's brand name was changed, which thus became TeleTu. [6] On January 4, the company name was also changed to TeleTu.
On 1 October 2012 TeleTu, following the merger by incorporation with Vodafone, [3] began selling its products under the Vodafone brand. From 1 April 2015 the TeleTu brand was officially abandoned in favor of that of the parent company and all those who were its customers automatically switched to Vodafone. [4]
