A large amount of 2600MHz spectrum was auctioned last time. Vodafone bought as much as they needed, and Three and O2 did not buy any of it. (They each bought some 800MHz spectrum). The bulk of it was then bought by EE and BT at a bargain price, and when they merged this made the situation worse. However, the reason Three are short of spectrum is because they didn't bid enough money last time. It really is as simple as that. They seem to think that they can do better by lobbying the regulator than by putting money up. They may be right, but I am not very sympathetic to them.
