Orange España is the second mobile phone provider of the four Spanish providers (Movistar, Orange, Vodafone and Yoigo), with 11 million customers.[citation needed] The company also offers TV and Internet (ADSL, FTTH) services.[5]

Orange offers GSM 900/1800 MHz (2G), UMTS 2100MHz (3G) HSDPA (3.5G) and LTE (4G) services. Its network radio access serves to the following MVNOs: MasMovil, Happy Móvil, Jazztel Movil, Día Móvil, República Móvil, Pepephone, Simyo, among others.

In January 2024, Orange España suffered a major outage when a hacker was able to access an account for managing the global routing table that controls which networks deliver Orange's Internet traffic. According to security researchers, the hack was a result of 'a concerning lack of security hygiene at Orange'.[6]
