BEIJING, July 19 (Xinhuanet) -- Verizon Wireless has had it with Amp'd Mobile LLC's attempts to line up a bankruptcy loan and wants to disconnect the startup carrier from it cellular network.
Verizon said Amp'd has been burning though cash since filing for bankruptcy in June, racking up charges of 370,000 U.S. dollars a day to Verizon alone. The company said Amp'd Mobile is almost out of cash, and it wants to cut it lose unless the Los Angeles company obtains a "debtor-in-possession" loan to finance its Chapter 11 case.
"Based on the record of this case and the fact that (Amp'd) has been given ample opportunity (over 46 days) to secure debtor-in-possession financing which has not materialized, this court should not permit this case to be run for a single additional day on Verizon Wireless' back," Verizon said Tuesday in court papers filed in Amp'd Mobile's bankruptcy case.
Amp'd Mobile doesn't have its own cellular network but buys network capacity on a wholesale basis from Verizon Wireless. Since filing for bankruptcy, it has racked up 15.6 million dollars in charges for use of the Verizon network. That's in addition to the 41 million dollars Amp'd owed the company - a joint venture between Verizon Communications Inc. and Britain's Vodafone Group PLC before seeking Chapter 11 protection.
Amp'd Mobile will have just 9,000 dollars in cash as of next Monday, Verizon Wireless said.
Representatives of Verizon Wireless, based in Basking Ridge, N.J., and Amp'd Mobile weren't immediately available to comment.
Verizon Wireless previously moved to cut off Amp'd Mobile after the startup failed to make payments that were due under their network agreement, forcing Amp'd to file for bankruptcy on June 1.
