Wind Mobile subscriber count grows 156% in one year to 358,000

Orascom recently released its Q3 2011 earnings report, which included Wind Mobile statistics.

Wind has been the most aggressive of the startup wireless carriers, expanding into several new cities quickly. As a result, it has the most subscribers: As of the end of September, Wind has 358,000 subscribers, up 41,000 from Q2. This represents a growth of 156% year-over-year.

To compare, incumbent Bell gained 85,000 subs, Telus gained 114,000, and Rogers gained 161,000. And Public Mobile's, thanks to a leaked internal memo, may have been as high as 40,000.
