Sprint - Nextel Merger

 
 

 

Merger between Sprint and Nextel

Forward

Nextel information on the merger is at:  http://www.nextelenterprise.com/merger/.  Below is our opinion of how the merger affects Nextel and Sprint Customers.

The Best of Both Worlds!

The first signs we are seeing of merger results is that Nextel and Sprint Customers will get the best of both worlds.  Here are some features that we see:

  • Nextel customers get more possible plans, including Sprints "Fair and Flexible" plans that do not charge much for overages.
  • Sprint customers will get the advantage of more customer service - with many Nextel stores such as ours carrying Sprint also
  • Both Nextel and Sprint customers can talk to each other inexpensively - if of course one gets the right plans and added features.  So if Grandma is on Sprint and your business in on Nextel, perhaps you can talk free.
  • Nextel and Sprint likely will share towers and increase and improve coverage for both
  • Nextel and Sprint customers now get more variety and options and choice
  • Nextel customers can try Sprint, and Sprint customers can try Nextel at low prices for the transfer
  • Nextel and Sprint seem well positioned by this merger for the next generation of cellular - with increased data and video rates possible.
