Q3 results: Sprint loses $326 million

0. phoneArena posted on 09 Nov 2008, 08:09

Just when you thought Sprint was coming back with a vengeance by focusing solely on its customers we find that they yielded poor third quarter results. Over the past few months, we have seen their CEO advertise their Simply Everything Plan on television in hopes of connecting with customers. They also came to realize the importance of competing with other carriers by providing PRO-rated early termination fees most recently...

I'm calling BS on this one, if they didn't then why did they report it. And exactly how is sprint leading in technology or really leading in anything? well you do have the shortest hold time... yay sprint? So if they're reporting numbers that aren't true that is kind of illegal you know? but really, how is sprint leading in anything? Network sucks, phones are good, but again without a network what good are they? Lowest plans and yet you are still losing customers and money? How exactly does that work?

As a big red tech i have no place to say for sure but considering the authenticity on many of the 'news' posts here lately i wouldnt be suprised. There posting anything even close to news. "WOO! IPHONE TETHERING!" "SPRINT HAS THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE(not just call center times)" "BOO! SPRINTS LOOSING MONEY AGAIN!" "YAY VZW THIS" "BOO VZW THAT" At least... thats how im interpreting it... lol

Anyone that obtains facts from a message board has a questionable level of intelligence. I wouldn't even believe anything posted on this site, it's all heresay until one of the carriers, rcr or wireless week releases the info.

i hope verizon does not take over sprint. Yeah it would be good for coverage and to bring even better phones to verizon, but if verizon buys all cdma carriers and ATT Wireless buys all gsm carriers then there will only be two carriers and that wont be good!!!

Why? I can't really get your point, but those two carriers choose LTE (4G) ...
