correction machan now itz 4.3 million

4.3 mill customers are not a match for a network having 70 mill customers macho.their profit margin is so huge,they can even provide free services if they want here & still make a profit cos of their customer base

Trust me macho their marketing stratergy is very aggressive.they'll slash their call rates like anything to gain their market share.

before Airtel was launched in India,Hutch used to have the biggest customer base.But 5 years later,everyone switched from hutch(Including me) to airtel & hutch had no customers left almost.Ultimately they started making huge losses & eventually the company had to be sold to VODAPHONE last year.Now no more hutch in India
they can do the same thing here macho.can u remember that about a million ppl changed over to mobitel from dialog when they started giving free services??
dnt u think the same can happen again??

cos ppl want a cheaper option to make calls & not to listen to background music while making calls or listening to caller tunes while making a call for 6 rs per minute.

FYI macho the rates i told were for pre paid connection & the exchange rate etween INR & SLR is 2.5 & not 3.it used to be 2.2 2 years back & not 1.5 as u told me.
from what I know,KIT outgoing is 6 rs in off peak hours isn't it??
Post pai in airtel are even mor amazing.They even have one packahe which gives 500 minutes outgoing free per month also

because dialog is using a lot of dirty tactics to maintain their market share like paying 4 mill per month as bribe to Telecom minister to delay airtel entry to market.
Even they were behind in getting TRC to suspend all the cheap packages given by mobitel when they relaunched.
Dialog's customer base is like that cos there's no real competition for them in Srilanka.
SO JUST THINK FOR A WHILE & TELL ME WHO'LL BENIFIT FROM LOWER CALL CHARGES IF SOMEONE LIKE AIRTEL COMES IN & COMPETES WITH DIALOG

FYI macho the dialog base isn't growing anymore.earlier thery were growing at a rate of about 1 million per year.this 4.3 mill is static now cos everyone is waiting till airtel starts operations for them to decide on which connection to buy

from what i'v heard,airtel has already started testing their network & some ppl have got signals also.Is it true??

This is my personal opinion machan, giving bribes, blocking new operators, packages these are just fantasy stories. if Dialog giving bribes fro ministers Airtel also can do the same with higher figures which can lead the minister on their rules.Airtel is financially steady than dialog.
Also if you are telling Dialog rules TRC that also cannot accepted machan. one of my fiend working @ mobitel's eng division told me even they didn't expect to continue M2M out going free promotion which they started while lunching their net work.they just wanted to do a load test on their network. and after the promotion period they stop it. but there was proposal from them to provide incoming free feature which accepted by Dialog and Celltel (Tigo) also. but that time there was 3 fix line operators (SLT,Lanka bell,Suntel) which represented only 14% of telecommunication market.which means they need some time to spread their market. that's the reason for TRC to reject incoming free request, coz if mobile operators starts to provide incoming free, no body will go for fixed lines.

I agree with u with the third statement saying that Dialog wasn't got enough competition in the past from others. once again it's not Dialogs fault.

I also like to have cheaper chargers. it doesn't means Airtel has to come here to compete with dialog. the competition is already here. competition always benefits customers.and remember that cheapest doesn't means best. Toyota,sony,nokia are some of the best brand names of the world. but not the best with price. even there are many brands with lower price rates they couldn't able to drop those brand reputation still.

it's true that Dialog cannot maintain the same growth rate but that's the nature of business in a context like SL. here we just have 20 million of population and most probably 10 million for telecommunication market. so if u are expecting same growth rate for every year that wold not possible in sri lanka. Dialog reached 4 million mile stone in early 2008. now it has passed 4.3 so wait till the end of the year to check the growth. I'm not believing people wait without a connection to bye airtel connection.

and i also heard that airtel has started their network testing.

as the bottom line i don't trust on a huge revolution on mobile industry with the Airtel launch. It seems like everybody needs some kind of change on chargers (lower chargers). but the truth is now every operator is on their maximum optimizations with the tariffs. I cannot believe Airtel in going to start charity service here to serve SL people without a profit by giving more lower rates.even if they do it would be a temp solution. that's the truth reality.

Hei any way dialog only decrease thr rates if they have a competition. So Airtel will competitor for them.

 

[Dreamworks_naveen]

I have a good news and bad news,


The good news is ;

Airtel is going to launch thr service from September. They have decided to offer total outgoing free for within thr networks.

Bad news is;

Dialog is trying to stop it by various method. They are refusing to give interconnection to the air tell and share DTL base stations.
Because they are afraid to loose thr cux.
You know why ?
everybody know Dialog sux.

Those are not official news. If u know more please share.

Airtel india ;

Will they change the STYLE ?
