"This was a very special quarter for Sprint, as we surpassed AT&T, in postpaid phone net additions for the first time on record," Claure told investors, finally people are getting tired of the fine print and bait and switch bundle offers

WSJ did an article on it dated May 3rd I believe. There are also other articles out there about it but most have the same or very similar verbiage as wsj.
How is that a fact though, re: Sprints adds. Att is the only carrier that lost post paid subs.
Lame! I just stated facts. No spin. I said nothing about Verizon or anyone else.
You hate AT&T. I get it. Many people have good reason to. But just stating facts that clarify an issue hardly makes me our incompetent, overpaid CEO.
No need for trolling. It would be nice if people could have civil conversation on here without resorting to childishness.
Randall is that you???? How do you explain everyone even vz adding post paid subs. Are you saying the 300k plus the net gains of everyone else are throw away att subs, that att didn't want anyway???? Try again. I'm fascinated at how nearly everyone at att knows how to spin the spin. That's time better spent on actually doing real innovative work....but wait...used cars and slick talk is what att does best.
While true, that's only part of the story. Sprint lost money for the quarter despite the additions. The problem for them is they are stealing many of our less profitable customers. So ultimately it's a net loss for them and gain for us.
That is not to say At&T doesn't have its problems or couldn't do things better, just giving you the bigger picture there.
Just taking too long for at&t to close it's door. Hope it's not too far off.
Google Fi is not a cellular provider per se it's simply a reseller.
I wonder how the spin doctors at T are gonna spin this? Yes Sprint's network is unstable (at least that's the perception) but the scary thing is how easy it is to lose customers. Cord cutting may not be that nail in Att's cable coffin, but something is coming. And it will seal T's fate. Is it Google FI? Is it a cable company making a wireless phone play/aqusition.
