A major issue plaguing millions of cellular consumers getting stuck in a cellular contract with unsatisfactory service. This issue is compounded by the fact that the cellular industry ranks lowest in terms of customer satisfaction.This means that there are millions of consumers out there who are extremely unhappy with their cellular service and yet are unable to do anything about it for up to 24 months.

Currently, the only way out of a cellular contract is by paying an early termination fees. This penalty, set by the various carriers, can be as high as $250 per phone. But there is a system to keep both cellular consumers and carriers happy.

As per sources from Cellswapper.com there is a service that allows millions of unhappy cellular users to transfer their contract to another consumer for the remainder of the contract period. After this the consumer is fully absolved of all responsibility and is free to initiate a new plan with a different carrier.

This has also faced criticism from carriers initially but as it is a win-win situation for both consumer and carrier, even the service providers has accepted this technique. The customer doen not have to pay any early termination fee and the carrier get a satisfied customer in place of a dis-satisfied one.

Once the contract is transferred then you need not worry about it at all and can get yourself a new carrier of your choice.

Stuttgart, Germany – According to InfoCom’s latest study release on mobile broadband services and innovative applications, the number of mobile TV users continues to grow but there is still no proven business model so far. Japan, South Korea and Italy are the leading markets for broadcast-based mobile TV services but mobile TV subscriber growth in these markets is driven mainly by free or partly-free access and rather large handset availability. In fact, ad-based free-to-air services are dominant in Japan and South Korea whereas most of all other markets are dominated by subscription based services, which range from €1.00 to €17.00 a month (for as low as 2 and as high as 60 TV channels); though, in these markets, the subscriber base is not taking up.

Third-party service providers ceased commercial operations in Japan and Germany mainly due to a non-cooperative attitude of the local mobile operators as well as a rather limited choice of both channels and handsets. Mobile operators are in general rather reluctant to collaborate with broadcasters and third-party service providers although some are beginning to open towards partnerships.

The on-going battle on standards – namely streaming over 3G against broadcasting – is actually leading to market dissemination. Currently, most mobile TV offers in Western Europe are streamed over 3G, although there is a certain shift towards broadcast standards, especially DVB-H against others, such as 1-Seg, MediaFLO, T-DMB or S-DMB. Content generally offered are news, sports and adult contents, which are particularly adapted for mobile viewing. So far the market for “made-for-mobile” content (such as mobisodes for TV shows) is rather small.
