SoftBank is merging subsidiaries Willcom and eAccess. Since January this year, both companies already supported each other's products at their respective outlets and they have now reached an agreement to merge.
The merger, which will see eAccess absorb Willcom, is expected to become effective on 1 April 2014. The merged entity will serve over 10 million subscribers and will expand mobile and fixed broadband services as well as Willcom's PHS service.
