Hold Your Wireless Carrier Accountable

You probably spend thousands a month with your wireless carrier. You know the importance of reliable wireless service for your business and are willing to pay for it. Still, it is critical to hold your wireless carrier accountable. Don't assume they are providing you with the best services or the most favorable pricing. 

Here are 5 Questions for Your Wireless Carrier:

1. Can you explain all the surcharges on our billing?

2. Are you analyzing our usage to ensure we are on the right plans?

3. How are we being charged for data usage?

4. Is there any flexibility for changes to our service plans?

5. If billing errors are found, will we be refunded?

Beyond asking questions, it is good to have a professional on your side. A full wireless telecom audit can possibly save you hundreds, even thousands, of dollars a month. It is crucial to root our billing errors, improper plans and poor contracts quickly.

Reviewing and auditing telecom bills can be exhausting and overwhelming for many companies. Still, the amount of money that can be lost if telecom billing issues are not addressed is enormous.

3 Telecom Don’ts

The world of telecom can be a complicated one. Sorting through all the new services, wireless options and technological advances can leave your head spinning. It can be easy to make rush decisions just to get things done, but these may not be the most advantageous choices for you company. 

Here are 3 Telecom Don’ts when it comes to your telecommunications choices:

1. DON’T GET PRESSURED INTO A RUSH DECISION: Don’t allow your telecom carriers to pressure you into making an uninformed decision. Always make sure you have time to fully review your services & terms. Also, hold them accountable for laying out all your options.

2. DON’T AUTOMATICALLY RENEW CONTRACTS: Putting your contracts on auto-pilot is often tempting, but may cost you significantly in the long run. When your contract comes up for renewal that is a time to negotiate for better rates, products and service plans. 

3. DON’T FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE TO GO IT ALONE: Telecom consultants have tremendous value. Contingency based telecom audits, wireless optimization and contract management are worth their weight in gold. Having the benefit of experience and TEM software on your side, can save your company thousands of dollars.
