Verizon has successfully purchased Alltel but we knew all that already. What’s new is the fact that Verizon plans to complete the acquisition by Friday, January 9th. Alltel is about to receive $5.9 million for Alltel’s 14 million subscribers. The move will finally transform Verizon into the largest U.S. carrier with 78 million customers.

Following the completion of the deal, Verizon will sell its assets in markets that overlap with Alltel and it will open a call center in Little Rock after closing Alltel’s headquarters from the same city. What are we going to expect from the top U.S. carrier in 2009? Hopefully just great things!
