Dish Network continues to lose Boost Mobile prepaid customers. But compared to before, this pace has slowed down already.
The company shared its preliminary results yesterday where it revealed a net loss of 24,000 Boost prepaid subscribers in Q4. Comparing this with the 245,000 subscribers lost in the same quarter of 2021, this is already an improvement. Still, the company had a total of 7.98 million wireless subscribers at the end of the year, which was 8.54 million by the end of 2021.
When asked about the performance of Dish, Recon Analytics’ founder (via Fierce Wireless) said that “Prepaid is constantly swimming against the tide. It’s a difficult business, and there is always churn.”
For MoffettNathanson’s Craig Moffett, it’s possible that Boost will have more success this year when its new Infinite postpaid gets released. But in order to do so, it needs to be aggressive in its pricing and offering.
