AT&T Mobility's Ralph de la Vega says he isn't sweating the competition too much. De la Vega, CEO of AT&T's Mobile & Business Solutions Group, said the carrier takes what its competitors do seriously, including aggressive moves by T-Mobile and Sprint, but is comfortable with its place in the industry and is confident it is ahead of other carriers on connected cars, homes and the Internet of Things. De la Vega said that "in a very competitive industry, when there's people trying to win market share, and they're not successful, they have to keep trying things." He noted that despite the flurry of competitive moves in 2014, including 125 different price changes, AT&T still recorded its lowest postpaid churn ever. AT&T has focused on building out its LTE network to more than 300 million POPs and making sure it is reliable, and improving its customer service.
