Verizon Alltel Merger?

[loopkiller 10+ year member]

Was watching TV last night and saw an Alltel commercial saying they merged with Verizon? Anyone else hear about this?

Sorry if repost. I searched first and didn't see any other posts. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I guess it happened on Jan 9th. I just saw on the Alltel site that Verizon bought out Alltel. What is funny is that Alltel had a commercial just before the one where I saw the merger and it was one of those Chad making fun of Verizon commercials. Oh the irony.

Because what does Verizon care if Alltel still keeps getting customers? They're all going straight to Verizon. Competition between them would not matter, if the owner is the same. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
