Poll Results

The latest polls questions have now ended, a new set of Polls is currently running as from today. I the questions asked of the polls just finished, the results were as follows:-

1. Should the Networks do more to enforce the code of practice?

- Result YES 84.8% NO 15.2%

2. Should the Networks own approved dealers be able to offer the same packages (Offers) as the Network?

- Result YES 97.3% NO 2.7%

3. On connections should there be NO clawback except for fraudulent sales?

- Result YES 89.2% NO 10.8%

This clearly gives an indication of the dealers views and should be looked at by the Mobile Network Operators.

Message from the Chairman IMPDA

On behalf of the IMPDA and its team I would like to wish all UK dealers/distributors/networks a very Happy New Year 2009.

We wish all dealers good luck for 2009 and that their business continues to survive in 2009 after what has been a very difficult last quarter of 2008. Dealers this year need all the help they can get, and we hope that Mobile Network Operators will help to keep the independent dealer alive and well in 2009 and maybe offer special deals which will help to bring more business to the independent sector.

The future for dealers this year may be more difficult due to the economic climate, however dealers are tough and many will survive this difficult time. Despite the gloom, consumers are using their mobiles more and more, and although their may be a slight downturn, it;' not as bad as some sectors. That does not mean that dealers can be complacent. If anything diversification is the word this year, with more dealers taking on additional products to sell, and not just mobiles. Suppliers can also help dealers achieve additional sales, If suppliers would like to help UK dealers then please contact us to discuss.

Happy New Year to you all

Chris Caudle
