Sprint Sues to Completely BLOCK AT&T, T-Mobile Deal

Less than a week after the U.S. Justice Department stepped in to try to prevent AT&T from buying T-Mobile, Sprint Nextel has jumped into the fray by suing both companies.

In a lawsuit filed in federal court in Washington, D.C., Sprint argues that the deal would harm consumers and business customers and entrench the “duopoly” of AT&T and Verizon, which could use their heft to harm Sprint and other competitors.

“With today’s legal action, we are continuing that advocacy on behalf of consumers and competition, and expect to contribute our expertise and resources in proving that the proposed transaction is illegal,” said Susan Z. Haller, vice president of litigation for Sprint, in a statement.

The DOJ’s case is essentially the same. Its complaint charges that the takeover would violate antitrust laws and “would substantially lessen competition for mobile wireless telecommunications services across the United States, resulting in higher prices, poorer quality services, fewer choices and fewer innovative products for the millions of American consumers who rely on mobile wireless services in their everyday lives.”

Leigh Horner, a spokesperson for Sprint, told Mashable that the company wanted to weigh in on the Justice Department’s suit. “We have an expertise in the industry,” Horner says, “and we wanted to make sure we were active in the court proceeding.”

Red Pocket Mobile & H2O Wireless Now UNLIMITED DATA!

This is going to spread FAST! Now iPhone users have a TRUE alternative to AT&T’s high priced services… Simple Mobile and T-Mobile better watch out!!! The competition has now been steepened! Red Pocket Mobile and H2O Wireless are offering an “Unlimited” plan that is actually very similar to Simple Mobile’s, you get 1GB of 3G/4G data speeds, and there is NO official word if your data caps at that point, OR if it is going to be idled.

We are curious to see how the new 1GB ceiling is going to affect customers satisfaction. Red Pocket Mobile is doing the right marketing while H2O is being a little edgy with their marketing tactic. Red Pocket states Unlimited, but does also make sure people know the 3G/4G speeds are until 1GB. H2o on the other hand is not notifying customers of the 1GB cap, this is probably going to piss dealers as well as customers off when they hit this cap.

We commend Red Pocket for letting consumers know about the cap, H2O will soon find out what happens when customers are not aware, same thing with all carriers, customers get pissed, and leave to go elsewhere.

None-the-less, we are excited to see AT&T MVNO’s getting more data, great future ahead for both companies. Let us know your response and experience with the new plans!

EasyGO Offering Boost & Virgin at INCREDIBLE Rates!

Well, the wait is over! We are on our way back from Las Vegas, NV as we speak and secured a deal with one of the largest Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile agents in the country… We are expecting in the next week or so to add ALL Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile products to our EasyGOwireless and BillPAY network.

Boost Mobile is a growing product that attracts a lot of foot traffic at most locations across the United States. Virgin Mobile has invested MILLIONS of dollars recently into there network and branding… So in our opinion being able to offer Virgin Mobile is just an additional plus when doing business with us.

One things most people/dealers/retailers do NOT know is the fact that Boost and Virgin are getting stricter and stricter on where the products can be offered. So a lot of locations you will find out may advertise that they take payments or do activation’s for Boost and Virgin, but in fact don’t. With the relationship we secured over some drinks at a famous Vegas Casino, we are confident our network will have Boost and Virgin for a very VERY long time!

If you are not aware of the current plans that Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile offer, visit there sites by clicking on the links below.

T-Mobile Cutting Dealers Profits by OVER 50%

As an ISO (Independent Service Offering), we received notification that T-Mobile today announced that it will be cutting RTR and Pins by 7%. This will take affect on September 1st, 2011. Right now, dealers are getting anywhere from: 10-12% discount on RTR and Pins… So to have those rates brought down by 7% at the dealer level is drastic for profits!

We see a lot of  T-Mobile business within our network of dealers across the U.S. We took time today to start notifying dealers of the change… We care about our network of dealers/merchants and want to see that they maintain there reoccurring profits. If you are NOT dealing Red Pocket Mobile, with the recent increase in Data on the $49.99 plan to 250 megabytes of 3G data, it is a GREAT substitute for the popular $50 plan T-Mobile offers. Red Pocket runs on the AT&T network and has no taxes, no fees, just great quality service at a great price.

Got International Customers? Give your customers FREE International Direct Dial Roll-Over Minutes EVERY Month. Up to 200 Minutes are given to Red Pocket Mobile customers every month on the $39.99 and $49.99 plan.

We would like to hear your opinions on what you think of this from the dealers stand point… We don’t really see any connection between this and the AT&T merger, that as of right now is still not approved.

To your success,

Nick Schycker – CEO/Marketing
