Beyond the handful of national retailers selling its line of phones, MetroPCS has been doing well on its own, establishing itself as one of the powerhouse prepaid carriers in the nation. However, they’re planning to ramp things up seeing that they’re making a push in the online space.
Showing their commitment to expand beyond its retail shops and store partners, MetroPCS announced that it has made a partnership with online retail giant Amazon. Specifically, a portion of MetroPCS handsets are now available for purchase through Amazon’s web site, which range from feature phones and smartphones. Not only will customers be seeing some great deals on some of the devices, but it’s yet another way they can purchase devices aside from the usual routes.
Well, after making a purchase from Amazon, customers have a number of ways to activate their new device – like visiting a MetroPCS retail location, logging onto the MetroPCS web site, or by dialing *228 from their new phone.
Tom Keys, president and COO of MetroPCS, said, “We are committed to offering our customers affordable handsets along with exceptional service and delivering both at an incredible value. Making our phones available on Amazon.com is just one way that we're providing consumers with a convenient purchase option that will allow them to have it all with MetroPCS' services.”
