To receive the bonus number, customers can simply visit www.alltel.com/myaccount and insert the number of their choice.

“For two years, ‘My Circle’ has given Alltel Wireless customers the most flexible calling program in the wireless industry, and we are excited to celebrate this important anniversary by thanking loyal My Circle customers with this extra free number,” said Garry Bledsoe, vice president of pricing strategy for Alltel Wireless. “The additional number makes it even easier for customers to stay connected with friends and family, without ever having to worry about minutes or cost.”

Alltel Wireless is also celebrating the “My Circle” anniversary with a special “My Circle Reunion” promotion where one lucky “My Circle” customer can win their own “circle” reunion with those that matter most. Customers can enter by texting CIRCLE to 102102, and the winner will have their choice of three amazing experiences to enjoy with their “Circle of Friends” or family.
