T-Mobile’s losses become 3’s gain?

Julie — Wed, 06 May 2009 14:03:39 +0000

With T-Mobile’s financial results coming this week and expected to show big losses, will a merger with 3 be the next move for owners Deutsche Telekom?

In anticipation of T-Mobile’s first quarter results this week, rumours are rife that the UK arm of German company Deutsche Telekom will have to be sold, or at least merged, to survive.

Losses for the company, estimated to be worth £3.2 billion, are expected to go into the billions this week with estimates settling around the £1.6 billion mark.

It has been reported that Deutsche Telekom’s shareholders, the German government and private equity group Blackstone, are putting pressure on the company to get rid of T-Mobile as it is bringing its profits down.

The most likely outcome seems to be a merger with mobile firm 3, according to reports. The two companies have worked together since 2007 with 3G base stations across the country so to grow this partnership would seem logical.

Also Timotheus Hoettges, chief financial officer at T-Mobile, said on Friday: “The British market is highly competitive and has comparably low margins. In our view consolidation is a means to take excess capabilities out of the market. Nothing is unthinkable on our side.”

Unthinkable, however, could also mean rumours of selling to one of the other top providers such as Orange move from fiction to fact.

When approached for information by IT PRO on the acquisition and merger rumours currently circulating, T-Mobile declined to comment.

T-Mobile is not the first mobile phone company to suffer this quarter with recent reports from IDC and Strategic Analytics that the industry has seen its worst shipping figures since it began 27 years ago.

Free Calls Forever on 3

Julie — Fri, 01 May 2009 10:23:18 +0000

Because our network has been designed and built for the Mobile Internet, we can give you free Skype-to-Skype calls and Instant Messages (IM’s) from your mobile, something that the other networks aren’t doing.

HOW DO WE OFFER IT FOR FREE?

On other mobile phone networks customers have to pay for using the internet data needed to access Skype. But we’ve got it set up so that it uses the same network as regular calls. This means Skype is completely free and it’s a better quality call.

WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?

Because we believe in a future without restrictions and making Skype available on our network for free is just the beginning.

WATCH OUT FOR US

From today we’ll be shouting about our free calls from the rooftops – on TV, radio, in newspapers and of course, online.

We’ll be providing you loads of creative so you can plaster your sites to help take advantage of our campaign and join us in letting customers know.

It really is free calls, free for all of us, free forever.

3 makes Skype free on all mobiles

Julie — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 23:15:17 +0000

3 just made Skype on its mobiles completely free: the network’s just announced a new pay as you go SIM card with no monthly subscriptions that’ll make Skype calls for absolutely zilch. The best bit of all: it’ll cost just £2!

T-Mobile might see VoIP integration in to phones as inevitable in future, but 3 is embracing cheap internet calls right now.

Starting next month, you’ll be able to buy a Skype friendly 3 SIM card for just £1.99 that will let you make Skype to Skype calls and IMs for free over 3G, not just Wi-Fi like the Skype iPhone app out at the moment. There’s no subscription, no monthly top ups required, that really is it, and the 3 SIM cardwill work in any unlocked 3G handset from the Summer.

If completely free calls sounds like business suicide, think again: 3 is looking to nab customers from other networks with the offer, and get them spending on other 3 services. We’re sold: the other networks need to start looking over their shoulders. Skype has 433 million users worldwide, so at a price point like this, there’ll be no holding VoIP fans back.

3 UK grinds to a halt

Julie — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 16:39:16 +0000

The 3G mobile phone operator ‘3′ seems to have ground to a halt this afternoon, leaving thousands of people unable to make or receive calls. The outage has been over the last hour or two and is resulting in on-screen error messages such as ‘Call Failed’ or ‘Network Error’.

I phoned 3 earlier on as one of my phones appeared to be dead and was told by 3’s excellent customer services (sarcastic face) that is was probably my phone. I asked if he was sure as I had spoke to two other people with 3 phones having the same problem, and he assured me there was no problem with the network.

17:20 and my 3 phone starts to finally ring, and surprise, surprise it’s 3! The advisor confirms that there is in fact a nationwide outage with 3 which he claims is being rectified as we speak.

Have you been affected by today’s outage? Let us know.
