Detailed info on T-Mobile:

The mobile world has been changing rapidly in recent years and continues to do so. New technologies are driving innovative voice and data solutions for businesses and consumers. At the same time, one-product national businesses are moving into a complex multi-product service world. Just ten years ago, national operators with almost no international presence dominated their respective markets.

One of the global market leaders
T-Mobile International is one of the world’s leading companies in mobile communications. As one of Deutsche Telekom’s three strategic business units, T-Mobile concentrates on the most dynamic markets in Europe and the United States. By the end of 2006, more than 106 million customers are served in the twelve T-Mobile markets. T-Mobile is a partner of FreeMove, an alliance formed by four of Europe’s leading mobile companies - Orange, TIM (Telecom Italia Mobile), TeliaSonera, and T-Mobile - to help their customers communicate as easily while travelling abroad as they do at home.

Global player in mobile communications
T-Mobile International, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom, was established in December 1999. Since then, it has positioned itself as one of the largest international mobile communications carriers. It is the first to operate a trans-Atlantic mobile network based on GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications), the world’s most successful digital wireless standard. T-Mobile subsidiaries and affiliates were among the first operators worldwide to use future-oriented technologies like GPRS, UMTS (3G) and W-LAN.

T-Mobile USA is one of the fastest growing national wireless carriers in the world and the main growth driver in the T-Mobile Group.

A history of innovation
VoiceStream, the first US operator to run a nationwide GSM network, was acquired in 2001. Since its rebranding in 2002, T-Mobile has quickly grown to a customer base of 25 million. With its strong history, innovative products, and service plans, T-Mobile is continuing to play an essential role in the enormous growth of mobile customers in North America. In fact, the company has come to be the main growth driver in the T-Mobile family.

Mobile in America
Based in Bellevue, Washington, T-Mobile operates in 46 of the top 50 US markets. The 100 percent subsidiary of T-Mobile International and its affiliates have licenses to provide service to 95 percent of the US population. T-Mobile operates the largest GSM/GPRS 1900 MHz voice and data network in the country, reaching 254 million people.
W-LAN, yes we can!
As part of delivering modern multimedia experience, the company is dedicated to providing mobile access to the Internet. With the T-Mobile HotSpot service, it offers W-LAN wireless broadband Internet access in more than 7,100 convenient public locations, making it the largest Wi-Fi network in the world. Thanks to the HotSpot locations, customers stay connected in places such as Starbucks coffeehouses, Borders Books & Music stores, “Kinko’s”, airports, and airline clubs. Here, they receive coverage whenever they want it and speed when they need it. In fact, the connection is up to 40 to 50 times faster than the standard dial-up Internet access. All that is needed are a T-Mobile HotSpot account and a W-LAN enabled laptop or PDA.

Focus on service
T-Mobile is very close to becoming the industry’s most highly regarded service company. In 2002, it introduced the “Power of One” approach to customer service, offering one system for technology, pricing and billing, frequency, sales structure, and customer care structure. The company’s ongoing commitment to providing excellent customer satisfaction earned T-Mobile highest honors in several independent studies announced by J.D. Power and Associates: T-Mobile repeatedly came first in the “Wireless Customer Care Performance Study” and in the “Business Wireless Satisfaction Study”. This proves that the company recognizes the needs of both business and private customers alike and answers their wishes with an unrivalled level of services.
