Reaction on Free Texts to hurt carrier's bottom line


With the implementation of this new trend, the most advantages of this would be at the consumer’s side.  However, the downside is that all the carriers like smart, globe, sun, etc. will be useless. Apart from that, sending text messages is the highest form of income to all the carriers. They make most of the money in services, thinking that millions and billions of people a day are using text messages, not considering the call. If this happens, it badly hurts the bottom line of all the carriers.

What will happen then? In my own opinion, for the consumers it really helps a lot. You don’t have to spend a lot of money for having a load. Just send and send and receive messages at all. No worries as long as both your phones are compatible in receiving messages, that’s it! For the producers of different phone models, it is an added profit to them. Why? Because if this free text will be implemented in the Philippines, cell phone producers makes a lot of phones that would be compatible to all phones to avail this free texts. However, if it does not require any connectivity like Bluetooth, cell phone units nowadays would still be in use. But we do not know yet.

For the carriers, it did really hit their bottom line. Not only millions, but billions will be put into nothing. Part of the changing trend of technology, so they must be flexible in whatever trend came in to. If there are new trends came in, they have to go with the flow, since most of the time advantages and disadvantages takes place even if it will be implemented or not.

For the students, wohoa..What a great surprise! No more expenses for load. No more worries! For the companies that mostly use cell phones for their means of communication, it would be a great help too. And to everybody in general, we can’t deny that it did really help a lot and the bottom line is, IT HURTS!.
