Karthik R 246 Report post Posted November 25, 2010 Jatin Gandhi, managing partner, Tirupati Fabknit, a hosiery and kidswear firm based in NCR, is raring to change his telecom service operator, from a CDMA player to a GSM player. The reasons: unhelpful custom er care department and un resolv ed call drop problem. Gandhi, whose average monthly bill is over Rs 3,500, is just one of several million subscribers who de sisted from changing their service operator simply to avoid a change in their 10-digit mobile phone number. That, as most subscribe rs will affirm, becomes a hassle as every personal and professional contact has to be individually infor med of the change in num ber and many may not care to save the new number. However, most subscrib ers would have to wait a while before mobile number portability (MNP) beco mes a reality as the initial launch is limited to Haryana. Syniver se Tec hnologies, which will impl ement MNP across 11 circ les in northern and wes tern India, said it is awaiting the implementation schedu le from DoT across the other 10 circles, besides Haryana. The other company to have be en granted licence for MNP services in 11 circles in southern and eastern Ind ia, Telc ordia Technologies, is awaiting security cle ara nce. But it’s not just subscri bers who are waiting for MNP, telec om firms too are gea ring up. Some, like Idea Cellular, have been running a tele vision campaign on the MNP launch. “It is difficult to say how many people will opt for it (MNP),” said chief cor porate affairs officer, Idea Cel lular, Rajat Mukarji. He says MNP may not witness an ex odus of subscribers overnig ht. “It might take four to five months before we see a siz eable shift,” he said. He disco unted the possibility of tari ffs being lowered further. The biggest beneficiari es could be the newer operato rs who have low subscriber numb ers and thereby spare capa city. “The battle for sub scriber additions is goi ng to be in the post-paid se gment as that is where the cream of a telco’s subscrib er base lies — people with high monthly spends on th eir mobiles,” said a spoke sperson of a new telecom operator. President and CEO of Sistema Shyam Teleservic es Vsevolod Rozanov expe cts the post-paid segment to witness a tariff war as the new operators vie for subscribers. “Most of the fall in tariffs in recent years has been in the pre-paid category. We expect tariffs to fall by do uble-digits,” he said Says Mritunjay Kapur, country MD, Protiviti Cons ulting,telecom firms looking to poach subscribers will target customers with high average revenue per user (ARPU). “High-value custo mers, those with an ARPU of at least Rs 1,000, will be the primary target for telcos looking to capitalise on MNP,” he said. He said the bigger players have improved their custo mer service in a bid to retain the high ARPU subscribers. “MNP will have an effect, but not immediately. This could take six to seven months,” he said. Source : here! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sougatadc 358 Report post Posted November 25, 2010 Can anyone throw light on what will happen to onnet plans? One point is clear it will be difficult for a caller to track which subscriber is with which operator. The apperant on-net subscribers might have left his network or subscribers from other operators would have migrated into his network. So it will be risky to use on-net plans.

Honest 836 Report post Posted November 25, 2010 ^^^ No..No...dear Sougata, this will not be the case. The fact is that whenever a caller makes a call to certain number and if that number is been ported to other operator then the caller will hear an automatic response from the system that the number is been ported and the call is going to connect on xyz operator's network. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arun 795 Report post Posted November 25, 2010 How would SMS related agreements work post MNP? Twitter has a tied up AirTel, Reliance and Videocon in India for receiving tweets as SMS for free. So if a Reliance customer switches to MTS after MNP, would he still be receiving the SMS alerts from Twitter (as number remains same)? If it does then won't the agreement between Twitter and Reliance be meaningless? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
