Each year, we outline the fundamentals that have

allowed ALLTEL to deliver superior value. In

2000, those same fundamentals continued to be the

foundation of our success.

   

 

First, our customer relationships: the foundation for growth. During a period of rapid

 

expansion for the Company, we have nonetheless continued to offer more services and

 

better value within our geographically clustered markets. We are committed to offering

 

customers value through a single point of contact, a single bundled service package and a

 

single communications bill. We also know that our customers appreciate our rapid response

 

to their changing needs, with flexible offerings such as our competitive wireline

 

services (CLEC), now in 40 cities, and our national, regional and local Freedom wireless

 

service plans.

   
 

Second, our technologies: the building blocks of our business. By investing in the latest

 

digital infrastructure and partnering with specialist product and service developers, we

 

have brought advanced and competitively priced services to our wireless, wireline and

 

Internet customers, all at significantly reduced costs. For example, our Web-Unwired

 

offering has allowed us to offer fully customizable wireless Internet access service. And,

 

beginning in our Louisiana market, the transition to a 3-G capable digital network positions

 

us to be among the first to offer new broadband applications over the coming years.

   
 

Third, and most importantly, our people: the employees featured throughout this site

 

represent just a few of the thousands of ALLTEL employees dedicated to improving

 

the lives of our customers. Throughout our ranks, you’ll find talented, knowledgeable,

 

solutions-oriented people focused on our customers and their needs.

   
 

The fundamentals have not changed. By focusing on customer value, our strategy has kept

 

us on course; it continues to deliver results; and it will drive our business into the future.
