A giant operator in Europe, it looks like Vodafone will enter in 2015 also the market from the United States of America. The information says that it will be an MVNO of T-Mobile. One of the most important part of the deal is the fact that customers from Europe will benefit from far better roaming service when they’ll call somebody from North America which uses the service of Vodafone. An important fact for the British based provider if we consider the number of users which it has in all World.
They have 350 million subscribers!
According to statistics published on their official website, Vodafone has more than 350 million subscribers on the Planet, only 19 of them being in the United Kingdom, place where the company was founded and developed. As a comparison, Verizon, which is the leader at customer number in the United States of America has nearly 130 million subscribers, which is a little bit more than 35 percent of Vodafone.
Of course, Vodafone will act firstly as a discrete presence, but rumors say that the operator aims to fix itself better and better in the market of the North and Latin America and all this starting with 2015. As I said before, Vodafone customers from the United Kingdom will have better roaming services and also it will add the United States to their roster of around 40 countries in which Vodafone offers LTE roaming services. It looks quite an important deal between two states which are in top of the World’s communication system.
Vodafone will concentrate on business customers
At the beginning, information say that Vodafone will focus almost exclusively on offering plans for business use, because they think this way can enter faster on the market. Despite this, the United Kingdom based provider states that will offer also personal plans for customer which want to subscribe to their network from the beginning.
