TPG sees mobile rebound

However, in the last half-year to July 2011 there was a modest rise of about 6000 clients, and this half to January 2012, TPG has netted 21,000 new clients, bringing its total mobile subscriber base back to 222,000. Of these, only 6000 are Soul Mobile clients, and the company has plans to wind the Soul segment of its business down. TPG believes the increase in growth is due to the release of its Super Value Mobile Plans in September 2011, which placed greater momentum behind gaining TPG Mobile customers.

The company has as well enjoyed continued growth in its broadband subscriber base this half, which it ended with 19,000 more clients than the previous half. The total number of its broadband clients stands at 567,000; 156,000 of these choose to bundle with home phone. These bundles have as well been responsible for growth in home phone subscribers, with total home phone numbers up 47,000 subscribers to a total of 172,000.

The company

The company was looking to the release of three new offerings to drive future sales. The first is a set-top box unit for its IPTV product. The box will have Wi-Fi, Ethernet and HDMI interfaces, and be plug-and-play compatible.

Small businesses will have video surveillance included in most Small Business Broadband plans. The company will provide them with a camera, for a once-off fee of $149.99, and provide 24 hours worth of storage space in the cloud. It will as well sell 30 days of storage space for an additional $10 per month.

The small business side

Also on the small business side, it plans to roll out Business VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) services. Small businesses will be able to pay about $30 per month for three VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) services, including handsets, which will provide them with unlimited calls to local and standard national landline numbers.
