Thus, this study focuses on CR problems in the mobile phone service sector. CR has become an issue as customers increasingly switch service providers as competition between service providers escalates. CR is further exacerbated with mobile service providers spending billions in gaining new customers but rarely spending equal amounts on establishing, maintaining, and building healthy long-term relationships with their existing mobile subscribers.
