This study sheds some light on the importance and consequences of satisfaction in the competitive telecom industry in Bahrain. The factors related to payments and savings (such as offers, rents, charges) are the most significant in determining satisfaction, retention, and likelihood of switching from one mobile provider to another. Conversely, intercommunication factors (such as customer service, friendly employees, user-friendly websites) were found to be the least significant. A significant positive relationship was found between satisfaction and retention while a poor association was noticed between satisfaction/retention and loyalty.
