FYI - i spoke to a customer today who came in my store that works for alltel and the merge is official as of sometime last week i think? but starting in february (not sure the exact date) verizon customers can start calling alltel customers using IN network calling so it would be free. on the otherhand, alltel customers wont be able to call verizon customers with the IN network calling until march. not sure how valid this is i'd have to talk to our verizon rep. also, customers who have alltel who dont renew their current calling plans will have to change to verizon plans soon!!
this is good news for me because my boyfriend has alltel, i'm in his circle anyway so that doesn't matter but now i can call him for free
