The paper also provides recommendations to operators as to how they can more effectively measure and compare their prepay churn performance with that of their competitors. Specifically this paper:

  • Provides a graphical comparison of the prepay churn levels reported by 16 international operators.
  • Highlights key differences in how prepay churn is defined by different operators.
  • Identifies the components involved in the definition and measurement of prepay churn and illustrates their relative prominence and how these variables can be manipulated to deliver a reduced or inflated calculation of prepay churn.
  • Presents a cost effective methodology for effective calculation of prepay churn and 'spin' in any given market, delivering comparable performance benchmarks revealing operators' true customer retention performance.
