COPENHAGEN, March 5 (Reuters) - Danish telecoms company TDC TDC.CO said network problems reported on Monday could affect at least 1.85 million customers in Denmark, Sweden and Norway.
It had said earlier in the day that it expected only 450,000 customers to be affected by the problems.
"Many customers can neither call or receive calls. Data (roaming) and text is working," TDC said in a statement.
TDC had no indication that the problems were due to a cyberattack, a spokesman told Reuters.
The problems affected mobile, landline and internet usersand the spokesman said it was unclear when they would be solved.
A consortium of Australia's Macquarie MQG.AX and Danishpension funds PFA, ATP and PKA recently launched a takeoveroffer for TDC, and if they succeed in buying the company wouldsplit it into three separately managed businesses.
