Ampd Mobile is having Money Trouble

May 29, 2007

Adderton Leaving Amp’d Mobile? Board Struggles -- Money Problems for Ampd | gigaom.com

  Apparently Peter Adderton, Amp’d CEO hasn’t left the building… for now. Valleywag reported that the mobile maverick was out, a rumor we had heard a few weeks ago, but it was denied by the company. Adderton tells PE Hub that he is still the big cheese. Regardless of his status it seems the company is going through a tenuous period. A variety of sources say that there is trouble brewing, mostly around the issue of subscribers. Our sources say that lack of stringent credit checks and other issues have resulted in a ‘collections nightmare’ as one source put it. Amp’d’s normally attentive PR company has suddenly gone MIA.
