| What
Will Millions Do With Their Old cell phones After November
24th?
Ocala, FL, November 11, 2003 - On November 24th, millions
of wireless subscribers will be able to leave their current
wireless service provider and take their existing phone
number to a competitor. On that day, federally mandated
wireless local number portability takes effect in the top
100 markets in the US.
According
to research from The Management Network Group Inc., 30 million
subscribers will switch providers during the first 12 months.
None will be able to use their current cell phone, leaving
30 million retired cell phones in the hands of consumers!
To
help consumers, carriers, and retailers deal with this huge
avalanche of used cell phones CellForCash.com
has launched a campaign informing people that their retired
cell phones may still be of value.
"Right
now consumers are focused on keeping their most valuable
resource, their phone number." said James Mosieur CEO
of RMS Communications Group, Inc., the company that operates
CellForCash.com.
"Most don’t realize that they can’t use
their old phone when they switch."
Thousands
of people each month are currently selling their unwanted
cell phones to RMS using the innovative website. "We
anticipate a substantial increase in activity following
the November 24th deadline", said Mosieur "since
consumers don’t have many profitable and environmentally
friendly options for disposing of their old cell phones."
