The company had 906 million mobile customers by the end of June, representing a net addition of 19 million subscribers from six months earlier. China Mobile, along with the country's two other major telecom operators, have been ordered by the regulator to slash the cost of data services on mobile devices by at least 30% by the end of the year. In July, the three companies stopped charging domestic data roaming fees after eliminating the fees for domestic phone calls last year.
