T-Mobile Finalizes Business Plan to Sell Towers
After the failed merger of AT&T and T-Mobile many were wondering what DT and their US subsidiary would do to help keep the company competitive. It appears that improving their network is near the top of their list according to a new business plan they’re preparing.
T-Mobile will apparently look to sell towers, among other things, to raise money for significant network upgrades. Their desire to keep customer cancellation down is directly tied into their network as many people tend to leave T-Mobile due to bad network performance and subpar performance compared to their rivals.
We don’t see T-Mobile completely tanking anytime soon but the general consensus was that they needed to attack their issues with a big sense of urgency. It was extremely clear before the proposal that Deutsche Telekom was unhappy with the US devision’s performance and the proposal all but confirmed that. Things don’t change overnight so we’re sure there are still a lot of problems to solve. Their ship is still above tide but it’s slowly sinking. [Reuters]
