T-Mobile fined $80M
Sprint fined $12M
Of course, pending appeal. Mikey needs to speak to the Biden Administration on what to do.

Clearwire was a technical failure (Saw). Sprint's merger with Nextel was a technical failure (Saw). Most of what's in place with 5G was a result of Neville and Abdul. Saw and Ulf are destroying it by laying off all the smart people who built it.
By the way those awards are largely bought or voted upon by bribing company staff to vote in a contest.

PCS??? Ulf? As in Ulf Ewaldsson? Is Ulf a former Ericsson guy? It appears, prior to T-Mobile, Ulf spent a huge part of his career with Ericsson, in different engineering and technology roles. Dr. John Saw was a rising “star” for Sprint. “Doc” also worked for Clearwire. Perhaps, maybe not so bad having Ulf and the “Doc” leading T-Mobile Technology teams. Congrats on the 6CC news.

Little Mikey’s fraud is getting exposed.
Absolute criminals running this company.
Fun to see Ulf (PCS) and John Saw (PCS) now taking credit for Neville and Abdul's idea of 5G technology across multiple spectrum bands (a post by Ulf on Linkedin is the source). It's only a matter of time before the technology teams (and the technology) under Ulf collapse because of a lack of original thought.
@aqx+1siRkfuI yes it's old, it says so in the article, but the fines are now. So add that to the 950m to buy Lumos, over a billion in spending. Going to be a fun ride come August.
All Sprinters bow to Mr. Son and his folks who drove Sprint into the ground.
These aren’t new. They all stem from violations committed by a single company that occurred in 2018, hence Sprint getting separate fines from T-Mobile. This one’s on Legere, and was industry wide. Not that anyone in the Magenta cult would question any decision made by their idol Legere.
