"We are committed to providing simple, affordable wireless service to Arizona, New Mexico and Southern Nevada consumers," said Gallegos.

On a national basis, Verizon Wireless is investing more than $3 billion to strengthen our coast-to-coast network, which will further expand the digital footprint and increase capacity for wireless voice and data services provided to the new company's more than 25 million customers. Our new calling plans and network investment are just two examples of how we are diligently working to meet the needs of our customers."
