BEDMINSTER, NJ — Verizon Wireless is introducing the nation's first North American calling plan that lets customers call from the U.S. to Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico with no roaming or long distance fees. Beginning today, Verizon Wireless customers nationwide can sign up for North America's ChoiceSM, a unique calling plan that includes Canada, Mexico and Puerto Rico as part of their monthly plan's calling area. Customers who sign up for North America's Choice will also be able to call within these countries and back to the U. S. without incurring roaming or long distance charges while in the coverage area.
"Staying in touch across borders is part of today's reality," said Bill Stone, Verizon Wireless vice president marketing. "Many of our customers want a plan that combines Night and Weekend calling and a generous bucket of anytime minutes so they don't have to pay per-minute roaming charges while traveling throughout North America.
