Orangeburg, SC — In a continuing effort to provide the best wireless service for residents and visitors in Orangeburg, South Carolina, Verizon Wireless, operator of the nation's most reliable wireless network, has renovated the local Orangeburg Verizon Wireless communications store and expanded its network with several new cell sites.

The newly renovated store, located at 2718 North Road, features the full range of Verizon Wireless products and services and is fully staffed for customer service and technical support, allowing customers to speak with Verizon Wireless' highly trained representatives about all their wireless needs.

The new store also features:

  • A top-of-the-line self-service center with bill payment kiosk
  • An informational video displayed on an LCD screen provides customers with information on the latest handsets and accessories, the Verizon Wireless network, wireless tips, roadside assistance, customer service and account management options

Increasing coverage is part of Verizon Wireless' aggressive network investment each year to stay ahead of the growing demand in South Carolina for the company's voice and data services, including the popular TXT Messaging, Picture Messaging, National Access wireless Internet access and Get It Now® ring tones, games, productivity applications and more.

The new sites increase coverage and capacity in the following areas:

  • Downtown Orangeburg
  • Town of Neeses
  • Town of Norway
  • Hwy 321 between Neeses and Norway
  • Hwy 4 from Neeses to Orangeburg

"By improving the network experience for Orangeburg residents, we are emphasizing Verizon Wireless' commitment to maintain excellent call quality and provide the best wireless service available," said Karen Crouch, Orangeburg Verizon Wireless store manager. "Our local sales team delivers a high level of customer support and provides a broad range of equipment and service plans to suit every need, all backed by our Worry Free Guarantee®."

The company's long tradition of investment in its network, including stringent quality testing, is rooted in Verizon Wireless' commitment to offer the most reliable wireless service. Since 2000, Verizon Wireless has invested $445 million in South Carolina to build, maintain and expand its high-quality network and the growth continues in 2006. Verizon Wireless has invested $30 billion nationwide over the last six years — to ensure network reliability and expanded coverage and capacity.
