Cox's "Unbelievably Fair(SM)" Wireless Plans Now Available in Northern Virginia and Fredericksburg, Bringing More Value to the Bundle

MoneyBack Minutes(SM) and Free Usage Alerts(SM) Reduce Wireless "Gotchas;" Customers Enjoy Bundle Benefits(SM) - Faster Internet, Free Premium Channel, Free Long Distance or Earlier Weeknight Calling

HERNDON, Va., July 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Cox Communications today officially introduced its "Unbelievably Fair" mobile phone and high-speed Internet service throughout Northern Virginia and Fredericksburg. The addition of wireless to Cox's existing bundle of video, Internet and landline telephone services brings an unprecedented value proposition to consumers and introduces greater ease in integrating home and mobile services. In the state of Virginia, Cox Wireless is now currently available in Northern Virginia, Hampton Roads and Roanoke.

Today, Cox builds on its long history of innovation and customer service excellence with the launch of Cox Wireless in Northern Virginia and Fredericksburg. The company's market research revealed that consumers wanted a more fair approach to wireless and Cox is responding with MoneyBack Minutes. Cox is the first wireless carrier to provide cash back on customers' bills for unused minutes each month - up to $20 a month - a significant departure from the industry standard by which consumers lose unused minutes or carry them over from month-to-month with no monetary benefit.

"Wireless consumers in Northern Virginia and Fredericksburg have long been underserved on customer service," said Allen Roberts, VP Operations, Cox Virginia. "With our customer-centric approach, we're delivering much more than excellent network coverage and call quality. We went a step further by introducing new services and features to the Cox bundle that were built on fairness. Plus, with a robust portfolio of devices, a nationwide network and award-winning service customers have come to expect from us, Cox delivers on the most important attributes of wireless service."

Cox's in-depth consumer research found that consumers are frustrated with surprise overage charges on their monthly bills. To further its commitment to delivering a more fair approach to wireless spending, Cox Wireless automatically provides customers with free text message Usage Alerts when they approach their maximum number of monthly minutes and messages.  This "no surprises" service enables customers to adjust usage habits or upgrade rate plans to avoid overage charges. Cox also makes it easy to save minutes by providing free Cox Mobile-to-Mobile and calling between the customer's home Cox Digital Telephone and Cox Wireless device.

To further sweeten the reward for existing customers, Cox's bundled customers can choose one free upgrade when they add Cox Wireless. With Bundle Benefits, Advanced TV customers can choose a free premium channel or Cox Movie Pak, which includes Encore, Epix, Sundance and Vutopia; high-speed Internet customers can upgrade from Preferred to Premier; home telephone customers can add unlimited domestic long distance calling on their Cox Digital Telephone service; or bundled wireless customers can choose earlier unlimited weekday calling on their Cox Wireless  device.

"With the addition of wireless services, Cox has devised an approach that is a natural extension of its bundle, providing value and simplicity which should resonate with consumers," stated Irene Berlinsky, senior research analyst with IDC.

Retail Presence

With the arrival of Cox Wireless, mobile solutions are now available at the recently unveiled Cox Solutions Stores. At the heart of the in-store experience is the Learning Lounge, a comfortable area where a friendly and knowledgeable Solutions Educator is available to help customers get the most from their wireless device and mobile experience as well as other Cox products and services, such as programming your DVR from multiple devices.

"Throughout the Solutions Store, customers learn how easy it is to use many of the features and services of Cox Wireless, leaving with personalized knowledge that makes them feel excited and empowered in the wireless world," stated Chris Pantoya, VP Sales, Cox Virginia. "The retail experience provides complete entertainment and communications solutions, including their TV, internet and home phone services, providing the convenience of one-stop-shopping and making it easy for consumers to see the 'wow!' of integrating Cox products and services."
