<p>Sprint, which has bled millions and millions of customers over the past two years, has managed to offset that blow in the past few quarters by signing up record customer numbers to its Boost Mobile prepaid unit, which shook the industry up at the start of the year with a $50 per month <em>unlimited everything</em> wireless plan.</p><p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2009/07/30/sprint-loses-more-customers-can-it-ever-stop-the-bleeding/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Sprint loses more customers; can it ever stop the bleeding?</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2009/07/30/sprint-loses-more-customers-can-it-ever-stop-the-bleeding/">Sprint loses more customers; can it ever stop the bleeding?</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Thu, 30 Jul 2009 14:10:00 EST.

The company continues to have slick marketing, a first-class nationwide wireless network and improved customer service. None of these mean a thing if it can't retain customers and recruit new ones from the competition.<p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2009/02/26/sprint-s-gets-rating-downgrade-as-customers-flee-in-latest-qua/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Sprint (S) gets rating downgrade as customers flee in latest quarter</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2009/02/26/sprint-s-gets-rating-downgrade-as-customers-flee-in-latest-qua/">Sprint (S) gets rating downgrade as customers flee in latest quarter</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Thu, 26 Feb 2009 13:15:00 EST.
