Singular
Wireless has the largest all digital network in the
Carolina’s. Some of the benefits to an all digital
network are the ability to use features when ever you are in the
coverage area, such as voice mail alerts, caller id, internet, etc.
With the recent merger of Bell South Mobility and South Western Bell
the focus of their company and the efficiency of customer service
have improved substantially.
Their rate
plans, with the option of unlimited night and weekends, internet
access, nationwide long distance or roll over minutes, have become
more than competitive. Also, according to their internet site
(www.cingular.com) they will be releasing packet data internet
access any time now (Nextel is the only carrier at this point that
has that technology).
