Celluar Competition



            Verizon Wireless, AT&T and other carriers are probably thinking of the next idea to compete with the Freedompop free calling and texting service. The competition is changing for cell phone carriers every day because customers are becoming more complex. Customers want to see more for their money and they want flexible options when choosing a carrier. The beginning of third quarter 2013 top name carriers started launching “no contract” plans. These plans were created for customers that didn’t want to be in contract and it will also let the customer swap out the phones at the 6 month mark instead of waiting two years because of a contract. This more was attempt to provide customers with more options as the cellular industry evolves.

 

 

 

Freedompop is a wireless provider that claims to provide a 100% free 4G WI-FI for customer. Freedompop is now introducing plans for customers that will provide them with 200 minutes, 500 hundred text messages and 500 megabytes all for free with a purchase of a phone.  Freedompop is getting the attention from popular networks such as WSJ, Bloomberg Business Week and CNBA who stated, “Throwing a firebomb in the middle of the industry”.  Will Freedompop actually change the industry and take the number one spot from Verizon?  Big name carriers such as Verizon Wireless and AT&T you could spend as much as 150 dollars for just one line of service. Free sounds a lot better to some families that are shopping around for cell phone service. Can’t wait to see what brilliant marketing and campaign plans that will come from Verizon and AT&T will come up with next.
