SHARED TECHNOLOGIES TEAMS WITH BOSTON COMM. ON PREPAID

WETHERSFIELD, Conn.-Shared Technologies Cellular Inc. signed an agreement with Boston Communications Group Inc. that will allow STC, in cooperation with Boston’s wireless carrier customers, to provide nationwide prepaid service with almost all models of cellular phones, said STC.

The agreement also allows STC to provide to its existing distribution partners a network-based solution, which serves as the foundation for STC’s new It’s About Choices retail program that gives customers the option of activating cellular phones with prepaid or traditional service. It’s About Choices will be rolled out to national retailers beginning in December, said STC.

“This is an extension of our plan to make it as easy as possible for retailers and customers to get into cellular,” said Anthony D. Autorino, STC’s chairman and chief executive officer.
