I wonder what % of Unicom's customers are postpaid customers, and how many of them are in contracts? Because I smell a class action lawsuit coming if a lot of those customers aren't free to leave. Remember when Cingular Wireless oversold service in California and was hit with a $18.5 million penalty? http://www.howardforums.com/showthre...r-Call-Quality

But my understanding of the Chinese mobile phone market is that most customers are prepaid, no contract.

They seriously need to raise data prices for everyone to the same levels that I paid through mychinaunicom.com, until they can complete network upgrades that allow people to use more data without experiencing crappy quality of service. People are probably running torrents off of their phones (so would I if I were paying only ¥20/GB).
