It has been something less than month and a half since the MVNO sector in Spain would mark a before and after. FreedomPop, the new operator that promised free fare and a reduction of almost 50% of the payment from the rest, wanted to change the rules of the game.
They announced its arrival in April as the first operator freemium offering its service in Spain, but did not arrive until July. Summer, a curious date to start operations. Holidays almost the entire country can be an advantage or a problem. But for now, it seems that is not affecting them least.
What’s new and what’s coming
You dropped it when they announced that began operations in Spain, but already finally today premiered its new phase.
those who are already users of the OMV now have the possibility of accumulate free unlimited data, in addition to the contracted default. Starting today, will be given the possibility to accumulate through participation in surveys, download coupons, watch a video … At the moment, according to CEO Stephen Stokols FreedomPop, there are already some partners:
“Initially we will offer between 10 and 20 offers users FreedomPop, but we expect that in a few months the number of options to increase the free data exceed hundred offers.”
automatically, users receive their data and accumulate unlimited. Never an advertising campaign had been so profitable and had been so useful to the user; because in the end, all these actions are summarized in that and remove user data and then sell and monetize the service .
One of the biggest barriers so far to FreedomPop is which does not yet have portability
in addition to its list of plans they have added intend to advertise through online or offline more services and a new rate. 10GB, unlimited calling, unlimited text, unlimited WhatsApp -within its limitations, for 24,99 euros.
For now, the phase that remains pending is the portability. Expected end of this year, is expected to assume a rebound in the volume of users by that comfort to keep the same phone number . According Stokols, told Hipertextual , “keep existing phone number when switching to FreedomPop has been the request most discussed by users, confirming that it will not join the service until they can take your number” .
The balance of more than a month
it is not an exact date, but it is to see how he has gone to FreedomPop this time.
The launch he has caught by surprise even FreedomPop. The large initial demand forced the company to postpone some orders and adapt production to the needs presented. Stokols confirms that “had underestimated the initial demand.”
In any case, your goal is to reach 100,000 users by the end of this year and, so far, going the way of overcoming them.
