Research and Markets: The Connected Consumer Survey 2015: Fixed Broadband Customer Retention


Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/lg3blh/the_connected) has announced the addition of the "The Connected Consumer Survey 2015: Fixed Broadband Customer Retention" report to their offering.

Service bundling is not a direct priority for consumers, but operators should position bundles as a route to lower prices and higher speeds in order to attract new customers.

This report focuses on aspects of the author's annual Connected Consumer Survey that relate to the behaviour, preference and future plans of fixed broadband users in France, Germany, Poland, Spain, Turkey, the UK and the USA.

Key Topics Covered:

  1. Executive summary
  2. Price is the top driver of churn from fixed broadband services, but speed, reliability and value for money are also important
