Rakuten's president Hiroshi Mikitani has stated that he plans to start full-scale service in April for the mobile phone business, which has limited services.
Rakuten entered the mobile phone business in October last year as a fourth operator, but due to delays in the development of base stations, free limited services were provided for approximately 5,000 people living in Tokyo's 23 wards and Osaka City. Just to do.
On August 6, Rakuten's president, Mr. Mikitani, responded to the reporter's interview, saying, "Service will be in April. It is proceeding smoothly, but we will do our utmost to make sure that we have double, triple and quadruple hands. I would like to do my best to provide a stable service by hitting it. "
In October of the same year as Rakuten's entry, a new rule was introduced to encourage competition among companies and reduce fees, but due to delays in the full-scale launch of Rakuten's services, fees were expected to be as high as expected. It is pointed out that it has not gone down.
