AT&T gets approval to buy Verizon spectrum | Signal Strength - CNET News
Stumbled on this just a few minutes ago.
Same here, been waiting for I don't know how long before I do anything. I don't want a BB and I reckon that's all they can give you at Alltel in Norton to work with the change. Of course I talked to an AT&T rep the other day and they said you can get whatever you want and they have to give you what they have equivalent when it is finalized.Quote:
I wish something would be finalized - I've been using the same beat up, dog chewed phone for 2.5 years, my contract is up and I'd like to know what's happening before I get a new service or new contract.
I just hope you don't soak your new phone when you do decide on what to do.
Finally an official announcement from Alltel!
When you go to alltel.com and type in the area code this is the page you're directed to:
Alltel is joining AT&T
Welcome to AT&T!

The transaction enhances AT&T?s wireless network coverage primarily in rural areas in 79 service areas in Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, and Wyoming. You can see a map of the acquired markets here.

We will contact you and other affected subscribers shortly with more information about your service transition. In the meantime, if you have more questions, please read our FAQs.
