Mvno Success Factors MVNO SUCCESS FACTORS For more information email [email protected] This paper describes key success factors for MVNOs. Badly-executed and badly-run MVNOs have given the industry a reputation for marginal returns. This has restricted investment, valuations and M&A activity. Based on our unique experience of setting up, operating, and in some cases selling dozens of active MVNOs, these are the critical success factors to create and grow a truly successful MVNO. Figure 1 MVNO Success Factors We see here that technology and a "Full" or "Light" MVNO structure are not the determining factors for success or failure. This is often ignored by MVNOs, resulting in marginal outcomes below original expectations Proprietary to Mobile Conclusions Limited © 2019. The information contained in this document cannot be reproduced without specific written consent from Mobile Conclusions Ltd 1 3 Conclusions & Recommendations We have helped launch and grow major successful MVNOs. Here are a few examples of delivering successful MVNO Outcomes: • As Board members of Virgin Mobile France, we setup the MVNO in 2007 and set it on a trajectory to a €325 million sale to SFR 7 years later • As COO of Telenet Mobile launched in 2009, our market disruptor strategy enabled the acquisition in 2014 of the 3rd Mobile Operator Base KPN in Belgium • As Managing Director at Carphone Warehouse UK, the TalkMobile MVNO business was setup in 2007 and successfully sold to Vodafone UK in 2015 • As Advisors to Nowo, A Consumer MVNO was launched in Portugal by a challenger Cable Company in 2015, rapidly gaining market share At Mobile Conclusions, although we have very deep engineering and operational expertise acquired over 30 years in telco, we firmly believe that the success of MVNOs depends entirely on total customer focus, the adoption of cost-cutting digital tools and flawless execution by management. We have been involved in setting up and operating dozens of successful MVNOs worldwide, and we can help you launch and grow your own MVNO.

  • Broadband and Mobile
    Benenden Parish Plan Communication: Broadband and Mobile Issue 1.1 03/05/2014 Benenden Broadband and Mobile Key Points Broadband Introduction of Superfast Broadband should be complete by March 2015. 96% of postcodes within the TN17 4xx Benenden exchange area will attain Superfast Broadband speeds (25 Mbps and above) Only BT and Talk Talk have their own broadband equipment in Benenden Exchange providing maximum speeds of up to 24 Mbps. Other ISPs use a BT Wholesale connection enabling service at either 24 Mbps or just 8 Mbps (e.g. Sky) WiFi Broadband may be available for some households in Benenden from CallFlow and VFast 4G Mobile services will enable broadband comparable speeds beginning in Benenden during 2014 Poor broadband performance may be due to electrical interference and internal (or external) wiring problems. Mobile O2 have plans to improve 2G and 3G coverage and also introduce 4G services in 2014. Home coverage can also be improved by using a signal booster (femtocell) PAYG SIM cards can be a useful tool to determine the best provider in addition to online network coverage maps. If you decide to change provider your current mobile company will inevitably offer you inducements to stay (e.g. lower charges, improved terms, free femtocell). This also applies to Broadband. Broadband DSL Broadband (Digital Subscriber Line) The most significant (but not the only) factor limiting Broadband speed is the physical distance between the household and the equipment in the telephone exchange. Rural telephone exchange areas tend to be larger than those in urban areas and therefore people are more likely to live further from the exchange and consequently suffer from poor broadband performance.

  • Further Proposals to Reform Switching of Mobile Services
    Consumer Switching: Further proposals to reform switching of mobile services Proposals to address the impact of minimum notice periods when switching mobile communications services Non-confidential version. Redactions are marked as [] Consultation Publication date: 29 July 2016 Closing Date for Responses: 16 September 2016 About this document It is important for consumers to be able to switch providers quickly and easily, in order for them to exercise their choice and take advantage of competition in the communications sector. This document sets out our view on the difficulties and costs that consumers face when they switch mobile services where they need to give notice to terminate their existing service. The effect of notice periods within the switching process is that many consumers end up paying for two services at the same time, even though they may not want this. Our intention in this document is to enhance the mobile switching process reforms we proposed in our March 2016 consultation with an additional proposal to address this issue. We invite comments on our proposals from all interested parties. Contents Section Page 1 Summary 1 2 Introduction and legal framework 2 3 Consumer experience of mobile notice periods and switching 6 4 Additional proposed requirement for switching reform 19 Annex Page 1 Responding to this consultation 34 2 Ofcom’s consultation principles 36 3 Consultation response cover sheet 37 4 Consultation questions 39 5 Glossary and abbreviations 40 6 Calculation of quantifiable benefits and costs 43 7 Illustrative mobile switching journeys 50 8 Mobile providers’ terms and conditions concerning notice periods 56 Section 1 1 Summary Introduction 1.1 The ability to switch provider quickly and easily and without unnecessary difficulties enables consumers to exercise choice and take advantage of new offers or leave providers that are no longer meeting their needs.

    INSIGHT REPORT 2017 Temkin Experience Ratings, UK CO-OP, M&S FOODS, AND LIDL RECEIVE TOP CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE SCORES ACROSS 157 UK COMPANIES By Bruce Temkin, CCXP Head of the Qualtrics XM Institute March 2017 This report was originally published by Temkin Group and was updated to incorporate the Qualtrics XM Institute™ format. There were no substantive changes made to the content. XM Institute INSIGHT REPORT qualtrics.com/XM-Institute EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The UK Temkin Experience Ratings is a cross-industry, open-standard benchmark of customer experience. To generate these scores, we asked 5,000 UK consumers to rate their recent interactions with 157 companies across 16 industries and then evaluated their experiences across three dimensions: success, effort, and emotion. Here are some highlights from the research: < Co-op, M&S Food, and Lidl earned highest overall ratings, while Audi, BMW, and Flybe earned the lowest. < When we compared company ratings with their industry averages, we found that Saga, Premier Inn, Vauxhall, and Volkswagen most outperformed their peers, while Audi and Bank of Scotland fell well below their competitors. < To improve customer experience, companies need to master four competencies: Purposeful Leadership, Compelling Brand Values, Employee Engagement, and Customer Connectedness. CO-OP, M&S FOOD, AND LIDL EARN TOP CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE RATINGS To evaluate the quality of the experiences that UK companies deliver to their customers, we surveyed 5,000 UK consumers about their recent interactions with organizations.1 We then used this consumer feedback to create the Temkin Experience Ratings by:2 § Examining three elements of the experience. We asked consumers to evaluate their experiences with different companies over the past 60 days.
