Last week we caught up with CEO of Consumer Cellular, John Marick, who talked about its now-nationwide service offering -- no contract service intended for the low-usage cell phone user. The firm went from being a small Northwest cell phone service reseller in the Northwest to becoming a national provider. Key to their offering:
* However, according to Consumer Reports, you should know that the large carriers are changing their practices: "In apparent response to the legal and regulatory action, all the carriers have stopped automatically extending contracts when consumers make changes to their service plan. And now all but Alltel reduce early-termination fees of $175 to $200 as the contract term progresses."

I want to play to.
As I work with more and more assisted living and live at home seniors I am appalled at the costs they are paying for simple cell phone, cable TV, land line telephone and Internet Services. There is a better way and I think John Marick at Consumer Cellular is on the right path. Perhaps he could introduce medication alerting, emergency alerting, video response and other elderly features into his offering. That would deffinitely get the big vendor's attention and bring them to the table to meet the needs. If my dad could simply call on his cell phone and I could see that he is OK it would take a lot of pressure and guilt off of my family. Who knows, he might also get a kick out of seeing the crazy things that go on at my house.
