sbiddle: Some people are expecting a little too much from 2 degrees...
sbiddle: Vodafone are stuck in the dark ages focussed on profit margins and have no concept at all of price optimisation.
No wonder they still have some of the lowest total airtime figures across the whole group. They are scared to drop prices even though there is every probability that those reduced call prices will result in increased airtime usage and increased profits.
ajw: I believe that Vodafone NZ is the best performing subsidiary in the Vodafone empire. No wonder copious amounts of corporate spin are being released at corporate headquarters in Auckland to maintain the status quo for as long as possible. After all mobile alone in New Zealand is worth over $2.3 Billion per year.
