Alltel phones merged with Verizon in January 2013 for the price of $28.1 million. Just 7 months before Alltel was bought for $27 million.
As of 2013, Alltel is a Verizon Wireless company, as Verizon acquired Alltel. Alltel still offers cell phones, but the service will be switched over to Verizon in the coming year. After the merger is complete, all phones may be purchased through Verizon Wireless. Currently, Alltel phones start at about 9.99$ (USD) and many smart phones cost 150$ (USD) or more.
Yes, since Verizon Wireless bought Alltel, you can use a Verizon Wireless phone on an existing Alltel plan.
Yes It Has Been Confirmed. Verizon And Alltel Can Talk For Free. Alltel Customers Can Use Verizon Phones On There Network And Everything!
It depends. You should still have Alltel until you get a letter in the mail saying you have Verizon. After you get the letter, you have to get Verizon phones and plans (you can keep all current phones and plans once u change to Verizon) Before you get the letter, you can still change to an Alltel phone or plan but Verizon customers cannot get Alltel stuff. Since it is already March, and if you did not get a letter saying you're gonna transition to Verizon than the merger is not gonna affect you . If u want to stay alltel once u get the letter, u can call customer service and request to stay on same plan as alltel customer. the letter does not state this, but my mom did it. she's still on prepaid alltel plan. prepaid alltel had Unlimited text, whereas, prepaid verion does not.
It seems that Alltel was bought by Verizon, and there is talk of people having to buy new phones if they want to continue using the AlltelVerizon service when the two companies finally do merge. Verizon itself has a pretty good range of coverage, as it has more towers overall than Sprint. I would personally go with Verizon because Alltel is to be merged with it, possibly sometime soon.
yes you can but if you wont an answer from a sales associate go to there website Verizon wireless and click on the phones. by shopping assistant you should see live chat if they are working at that time.
If you purchased an Alltel cell phone plan a few years ago, you need to remember that these plans are now Verizon cell phone plans. Verizon purchased Alltel and all customers were transferred over to the new company. You will need to go on the Verizon website to order new phones, to change your plan, or to check your bill. You will also be able to get service at any of the Verizon stores.
soon

Verizon has legally become the owner of Alltel and taken over all of their company. Alltel is still functioning under its own name or name but will eventually become Verizon.
