Wireless service upgrade enablement

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium bearing computer program code embodied therein for use with a computer, the computer program code comprising:

• code for selecting one or more user equipment based at least on tracked information related to quality of a wireless service for user equipment in a geographic region, the wireless service being provided by a first operator;
• code for messaging the selected one or more user equipment to offer at least upgraded wireless service relative to a current wireless service for the user equipment in the geographic region, wherein the offer for the upgraded wireless service is contingent on one or more users of the one or more user equipment meeting one or more criteria, and wherein the upgraded wireless service is provided by a second operator;
• and
• code, responsive to the one or more users of the one or more user equipment meeting the one or more criteria,
• indicating to the second operator that contracts for wireless service for users associated with the one or more user equipment may be obtained by the second operator.

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more memories including computer program code,
• the one or more memories and the computer program code configured, with the one or more processors, to cause the apparatus to perform at least the following:
• selecting one or more user equipment based at least on tracked information related to quality of a wireless service for user equipment in a geographic region, the wireless service being provided by a first operator;
• messaging the selected one or more user equipment to offer at least upgraded wireless service relative to a current wireless service for the user equipment in the geographic region, wherein the offer for the upgraded wireless service is contingent on one or more users of the one or more user equipment meeting one or more criteria, and wherein the upgraded wireless service is provided by a second operator;
• and
• in response to the one or more users of the one or more user equipment meeting the one or more criteria,
