April 21, 2006
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - Alltel, owner and operator of America's largest wireless network, today announced the launch of "My Circle," an exclusive feature offered by no other national wireless carrier. "My Circle" empowers customers to choose who they call for free regardless of their carrier.
"My Circle" enables Alltel customers to make and receive unlimited free calls to and from the 10 phone numbers that matter most to them at any time of the day. Customers on select rate plans can choose any combination of wireless, home and office numbers located anywhere in the U.S., regardless of local phone company or wireless carrier.
"With 'My Circle,' Alltel customers can choose who they call for free - any number, any network," said Kevin Beebe, group president of operations for Alltel. "It's all about providing more value for our customers and keeping them in touch with the people they know and love."
"'My Circle' is further proof that Alltel will continue to provide our customers with the best, most innovative wireless service in the industry," Beebe said. "Features like Anytime Plan Changes and now 'My Circle' help us deliver that superior level of service by empowering consumers to customize their wireless experience in ways that are unique in our industry."
"My Circle" joins an existing set of unique promises that Alltel has made to its customers, including the flexibility to change rate plans without contract extensions and a network that's so reliable that customers stay connected or Alltel pays them back.
Alltel customers on select rate plans of $59.95 or higher can sign up for "My Circle" online at alltel.com/myaccount. Once they have registered, customers can change their numbers online as often as they like - for free.
New and existing customers can find out more about Alltel's exclusive "My Circle" feature by visiting their local Alltel retail store or by logging onto www.alltelcircle.com.
