Posted on: Tuesday, 9 September 2008, 15:00 CDT
BRONX, N.Y., Sept. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Verizon Wireless this week expanded its retail presence with the addition of a new store at Circuit City's newest location on 1750 East Gun Hill Road in the Co-Op City section of the Bronx. The "store-within-a-store" concept provides Circuit City customers easy access to the latest wireless phones and accessories, plus a variety of service plans on the nation's most reliable wireless network.
The new Verizon Wireless store at Circuit City in Co-Op City is open from 10:00 a.m. to 9:30 p.m., Monday through Saturday, and from 11:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Sunday.
"The high cost of fuel and today's busy lifestyles require all of us to combine errands and shopping trips whenever possible," said Wilfredo Rivera, manager of the new Verizon Wireless store. "By placing Verizon Wireless employees in Circuit City locations, customers get added convenience and assistance from the best wireless salespeople in the industry."
Circuit City customers will be able to take advantage of the same services available at all Verizon Wireless Communications Stores and can expect the same high-quality products and services.
The store is staffed by knowledgeable wireless professionals who offer consumers a broad range of equipment and services, including a new line-up of devices that combine V CAST music capabilities with full QWERTY keyboards for the "thumb" generation; the new LG Decoy, the world's first phone with a built-in, detachable Bluetooth(R) hands-free headset; and VZ Navigator (Verizon 4.0) which adds traffic and gas station information to audible turn-by-turn directions.
Demand for Verizon Wireless services continued during the second quarter of 2008 when the company added 1.5 million new customers, and continued its industry-leading customer loyalty rates. Verizon Wireless now serves more than 68.7 million customers nationwide.
The new store is the company's third location in the Bronx and one of more than 140 stores throughout the New York/New Jersey metro area.
