Competition among cell phone companies will increase in Peru

Mobile number portability, which will allow the users to keep their mobile numbers when moving from one service provider to another, is to start next year in Peru.

Telephonic companies estimate now that this will boost the competence between them, leading to an improvement of the services in order to keep their clients satisfied.

According to José Gamero, Movistar's Marketing Manager, their strategy will be to focus on innovation and offering a first quality service, thus they will invest US $400 millions to widen their service areas and broadband coverage.

Regarding this, Movistar has just presented its new service Speedy Móvil, a wireless internet service running on 3G technology.

On the other hand, América Móvil announced that they will invest US $100 million dollars in order to improve and widen their cell phone coverage.

A fourth company is expected to be authorized to operate in Peru next June, which will dinamize the competence.

Competence is the ability to perform a task or understand something.

Thanks to the staff for providing news in English, but one thing is for sure, many Peruvian companies, especially Telefonica, have ZERO competence.

Perhaps, the word "competence" should have been competition???
