Verizon Gets Permission from Justice Department to Eat Alltel

 

<br />

If deciding between Verizon and Alltel was hard for you there will be no more ripping your hair out over the matter.  The Department of Justice recently Okayed the acquisition of Alltel by Verizon Wireless.  This joining would put Verizon’s shadow over AT&T, making Verizon the biggest wireless service provider in North America.  The Dept of Justice will then require Verizon to give up about 100 local markets in 22 states in order to keep the wireless market competitively fair.  With the Department of Justice’s blessing, they deal must get the FCC’s blessing in order for it to go through.  The FCC votes on it November 4th.
