Attorneys general to telecom providers: Let the people block calls
2015-07-22 20:31:17| Telecom - Topix.net
Forty-five state attorneys general, including New York AG Eric Schneiderman, want phone users to be able to block calls they don't want. In a joint letter to top executives at AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile and CenturyLink urging them to offer call-blocking services, the attorneys general point out that a recent Federal Communications Commission clarification allows telecommunication companies to offer customers to ability to block unwanted calls and that such a service doesn't break federal law.

Dutch mobile operators losing share to low-cost providers
2015-06-25 09:48:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) The mobile network operators in the Netherlands are losing market share to new and low-cost providers, according to Telecompaper's latest 'Postpaid Mobile Insight' report covering Q1 2015. The combined share of the Vodafone, T-Mobile and KPN brands declined by 3 percentage points in the past year. Over the same period, Ziggo Mobile more than doubled its market share to 5 percent. In Q1 2015, 41 percent of postpaid customers had a subscription with a 'no-frills' provider, such as Telfort, Tele2 or Hollandnieuwe, up from 38 percent in the first quarter of 2014. The same trend was visible in the SIM-only segment (+2 percentage points), where premium providers have even less market share (41% versus 59% of the total postpaid market). Telfort remains the largest no-frills provider, although its market share has declined since the first quarter of 2014 by 3 percentage points. The report also shows that more than four in ten Dutch postpaid customers (44%) choose their mobile provider based on the monthly costs/fee; this is especially important for customers of 'no-frills' providers. This argument for choosing a mobile provider became more important in the past year. In contrast, the purchase price of the handset became less important, down by four percentage points compared to a year ago. This may be due to more consumers buying their handsets separately from their service plan. The report, based on a consumer survey, also found that Dutch consumers appear more satisfied with their postpaid providers. However, the market's NPS is still negative. The Net Promotor Score (NPS) has been gradually improving over the past year, from -10 to -1. The report also shows the pattern among SIM-only clients, where the NPS improved from -5 to -1 in 12 months.

Court rules for DHHS in NCTracks case; keeps door open for providers
2015-06-15 12:53:30| IT Services - Topix.net
A judge ruled in favor of the state in a case that pits nearly every Medicaid provider in North Carolina against the N.C. Department of Health and Human Services and its claims processing IT contractor. Still, the Medicaid doctors weren't left with a complete loss as the judge also noted that they can still have their concerns heard - if they go through the proper administrative process instead of going directly to the courts.
