Woo! Good news for all Verizon customers.. If this goes through we get more people to call for free!

that's good and bad IMO. This could potentially raise VW prices... Think about if they're number 1, they could raise prices and it wouldn't hurt them too bad... idk. But atleast Alltel will be gone, alwasy hated their service.

Good news for me too! Since the deal was reached, I have had tons of Alltel customers come in to port their lines over to Verizon. If the deal is approved, this means that anyone on the Verizon network will have 80 million customer to call for free.
