RTR is NOT a telecommunications provider. RTR is the independent regulatory body that oversees A1, Magenta, Drei, and all MVNOs in Austria. RTR is distinct from the TKK (Telekom-Control-Kommission), which is the decision-making body, while RTR serves as the operational arm. RTR is also different from Ofcom (UK) or BNetzA (Germany), which serve equivalent functions in their countries.
