Mobilicity yesterday announced that it had signed up 63,000 customers in the last quarter of 2011 and described itself as “the nation’s fastest-growing new wireless entrant.” It also expects to continue to outpace its competition “based on results disclosed thus far.”
“In just our second year of operations, Mobilicity continues to shake up the industry as the fastest-growing new entrant, adding even more subscribers last quarter than one of the Big 3 incumbents,” said Mobilicity President and Chief Operating Officer Stewart Lyons. “Our value-based service is clearly resonating with Canadian consumers. The Federal Government’s desire to foster a competitive environment has worked, and providing new entrants with access to more spectrum through the 700 MHz auction will be an important component of furthering the gains in competition realized to date.”
Mobilicity also revealed that its ARPU (average revenue per user) topped CA$30 at the end of 2011.
Mobilicity revealed last November that it had over 250,000 customers. These new numbers suggests that it could now have over 300,000. In comparison, WIND Mobile now has 425,000 customers and Public Mobile has some 199,000 customers.
