New Wireless Retail Store at intersection of Clinton Parkway and Highway 80 Now Open
Jackson, Miss. - March 30, 2004 – Cellular South, one of the nation's largest privately held wireless companies, has relocated its Clinton store to 105 Highway 80 East (formerly the Backyard Burger restaurant). Clinton Chamber of Commerce and Cellular South have planned a grand re-opening for Tuesday, April 13, at 10:30 a.m.
"Cellular South offers a different kind of wireless service based on the simple premise that customers have rights, including the right to service and pricing that is fair and makes sense," said Shane Tuttle, Cellular South area manager.
Offering more than just lip service, Cellular South recently invested $38 million in a network expansion, which includes the addition of more than 100 new cell sites in its wireless markets and the extension of its CDMA 1X third generation digital wireless network to Coastal Alabama and the Florida Panhandle. The network expansion adds the option of a $49.99/month Unlimited Calling Plan, which includes Coastal Alabama and the Florida Panhandle, through Destin and Seaside, in the local calling area.
"Just in time for summer travel, Mississippi customers can increase their local calling area to include popular vacation destinations such as Destin, Florida and Gulf Shores, Alabama," added Tuttle.
Cellular South plans to continue its commitment to the Clinton community by supporting programs at Clinton High School and Mississippi College. The company also provides complimentary wireless service to Clinton Park Elementary School, for use in coordinating their daily student drop-off and pick-up.
Clinton store hours are Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. All retail locations are closed on Sundays.
