CT2 was deployed in a number of countries, including Britain and France. In Britain, the Ferranti Zonephone system was the first public network to go live in 1989, and the much larger Rabbit network operated from 1992 to 1993. In France, the Bi-Bop network ran from 1991 to 1997. In the Netherlands Dutch incumbent PTT deployed a CT2 based network called Greenpoint from 1992 to 1999. The first year it used the name and mascot Kermit but royalties proved prohibitly large and the mascot was dropped the following years. The service continued under the brand name Greenhopper. During successful years there were over 60,000 Greenpoint subscribers. In Finland, the Pointer service was available for a short time in the 1980s before being superseded by Nordic Mobile Telephone (NMT). Since 31 December 2008, CTA1 and CTA2 based phones are forbidden in Germany.
