In general this research has an intention to develop a research framework grounded on a strong theoretical and literature review background. The survey instruments employed on Bangladeshi consumers included demographic background, price, service quality, product quality and availability and promotional offers for consumer perception. Thus the structural equation modeling approach was necessary in order to examine the variables. The data analysis was conducted using SPSS and AMOS (Analysis of Moment Structure) with the software package for windows. From the result it is revealed that paths are related to the casual processes significantly. Among all the significant variables, from our result, Price is the most important among our respondents followed by Service quality, product quality and promotion. <\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\">Further research should be considered to gather more information regarding the service quality and customers\u2019 satisfaction dimensions in context of the Bangladeshi mobile phone operators. <\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\">It is hoped that the findings of this study may assist mobile phone industry in Bangladesh about their services and promotion of their services. <\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\">However, the findings of this study may provide needed feedback and contribute to the improvement of players\u2019 strategy and their marketing program<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif;\">.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"562\" valign=\"top\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;
