Quoted from Wikipedia:

WIND Hellas is a mobile telecommunications company headquartered on Kifisias Avenue, in the northern Athens suburb of Marousi, and is a subsidiary of Italian telecom operator Wind Telecomunicazioni SpA. WIND Hellas currently uses the slogan ???? ??????????? (Much more).

The WIND brand name was introduced to Greece on 5 June 2007 when the company rebranded from the name TIM for the second time in the history of the company. Before the introduction of the TIM brand name on February 8, 2004, all products and services were marketed under the brand name of TELESTET (subsidiary of the Italian company STET) which had been used since the company commenced operations. It is now a subsidiary of WIND of Italy.

In April 2007, TIM Hellas was purchased outright by Weather Investments, the Telecom holding company of Egyptian Tycoon Naguib Sawiris, CEO of Orascom Telecom. The brand name changed to WIND on June 5, 2007, the same name as the Italian Wind mobile operator also obtained by Naguib Sawiris in 2005.

WIND Hellas subscriber numbers in Greece today begin with the 3 digit prefix 693 followed by a seven digit subscriber number, although due to the advent of number portability in Greece, it’s possible for customers to take their number to another network with them. Since the networks of WIND Hellas was merged with Q-Telecom’s in May 2007, WIND Hellas subscribers numbers today also begin with the 3 digit prefix 699 followed by a seven digit subscriber number.
