WICHITA, Kan., Jan. 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Phonetics LC announces today that Wheat State Telephone officially launched their Switchmaxx Unified Self- Care(TM) ( http://www.switchmaxx.com/ ) service in December 2004. Wheat State customers are now shopping, buying and managing their own phone, cable television and DSL service preferences online through the Telco's branded Web Portal, MAXX 24/7.
"Our customers love the convenience and simplicity of managing their own services through our web site," says Wheat State General Manager Archie Macias. "Switchmaxx(TM) also allows us to stay open for business 24/7 without adding staff. I fully expect to increase revenues and build customer loyalty," he adds.
