Consistently Recognized By Many Independent Third

It’s not just in the South Central area where you can find an
unmatched experience. Nationwide, we are consistently recognized
for providing a superior network experience by a wide range of
independent third parties. Just this year, Verizon was ranked #1 in
the nation for a record ninth time in a row by RootMetrics®*;
received more awards than any other wireless provider in the J.D.
Power Wireless Network Quality Performance Study** (20th time in a
row); was recognized as best in streaming***; and in April was
found to deliver the best real-world download speeds by Tutela, a
widely installed network testing software, with over 250 million
devices globally.****
What does this mean for you?
Having lots of awards from multiple independent testers is nice,
but that’s not why we’ve built the nation’s best, most reliable
wireless 4G LTE network, the largest in the country covering 2.5
million square miles. We’ve built it so you’ll be able to use your
device when and how you want to. Whatever matters most to you –
whether it’s streaming music or a movie, watching your favorite pro
football team during preseason on Yahoo! Sports, sharing that
perfect moment with your friends, or connecting with loved ones to
make sure they are OK after extreme weather or other emergency –
you can do it best with Verizon.
“Verizon engineers focus every day on exceeding the needs of our
customers,” said Verizon’s South Central Market President Krista
Bourne. “We’re at the forefront of technology that enables people
to do what was once impossible but is now routine – no matter if
that means managing a business from a smart phone, keeping in touch
with family, using social media or gaming with friends around the
world.”
We are committed to delivering the best customer experience not
just on our network, but on the plans you choose as well. Now you
can mix and match different Verizon unlimited plans – all on the
same, easy-to-manage account. Every person in your family gets the
plan they need, without paying for things they don’t -- all on the
network they deserve.
2018 promises even more exciting technology firsts for our
customers, including our next generation 5G network. To learn more

doing, check out these videos on why we’re Best For a Good
Reason.
