Boston, MA 09/03/2014 (wallstreetpr) – As Sprint Corporation (NYSE:S) tries to come out of the havoc created by its T-Mobile US Inc (NYSE:TMUS) deal, it is struggling every day by slashing the costs of its services. The pay-as-you-go service of company will soon see cost cutting, while at the same time double the data benefit to customers.

This plan will come with 1 GB data, unlimited text messaging and calling, all at a price of just $35 per month. This promotional offer will end on November 3, 2014.

Sharpening Competitive Edge

This is the third consecutive price slash plan offered by Sprint Corporation (NYSE:S), after it introduced two plans in August 2014. The move shows clearly how Sprint’s new CEO, Marcelo Claure is sharpening the carrier’s competitive edge to revoke 7-year long doom of customer loss. Kansas-based Sprint had earlier slashed its monthly subscriber plan while also doubled the data amount for its shared package. Both these initiatives can be seen as an act to curtail T-Mobile US Inc (NYSE:TMUS) from magnetising Sprint’s customers furthermore.

Marcelo Claure who succeeds Dan Hesse, the former CEO of Sprint Corporation (NYSE:S), took over the charge on August 11, 2014, after the company abandoned the merger deal with T-Mobile US Inc (NYSE:TMUS). Claure has even notified the company’s employees that Sprint shall keep its target fixed on cost cutting while also competing “aggressively” in order to generate a good customer base.
