Cingular Wireless LLC is a Delaware limited liability company formed in April 2000 by SBC Communications and BellSouth. SBC and BellSouth contributed substantially all of their respective domestic wireless assets to Cingular, and acquired 60% and 40% stakes, respectively, in the company.
Following its acquisition of rival operator, AT&T Wireless, in October 2004, Cingular Wireless is the largest wireless company in the US, with approximately 50.4 million voice and data customers as of March 31, 2005.
Cingular provides wireless voice and data communications services, including local, long-distance, and roaming services using both cellular and personal communications services (PCS) frequencies and equipment to customers in 44 states, including service to all 100 of the largest US metropolitan areas. It has access to licences to provide cellular or PCS wireless communications services covering an aggregate population (POPs) of 292 million, or approximately 98% of the US population. Through roaming arrangements with other carriers, the company provides its customers service in regions where it does not have network coverage and is thus able to serve customers in virtually the entire US and over
170 foreign countries.
