U.S. Cellular to Offer Free Device Workshop at its Broken Arrow Location
BROKEN ARROW, Okla. – With a recent study showing a nearly 80 percent increase in smart phone shipments from a year ago, there are plenty of first-time smart phone users who may want a little help figuring out everything their advanced phones have to offer.
U.S. Cellular, which was recently recognized in a survey by “Consumer Reports” as the best wireless carrier in the country, is hosting a free workshop at 8 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 19 at its retail store at 4601 W. Kenosha St. in Broken Arrow to guide customers through all of the functions and features of its Android-powered devices, BlackBerry and Windows smart phones. All questions are welcome from current and potential smart phone users, and the workshop will cover both basic and advanced uses.
“Device Workshops are great for new smart phone owners or anyone who wants to make sure they are getting the most out of their handsets,” said Sal Paredes, store manager for U.S. Cellular in Broken Arrow. “Our associates enjoy helping customers personalize their devices to fit their lifestyles.”
Associates will answer questions and demonstrate common features such as e-mail access, Web browsing, calendar synchronization and browsing for apps. Attendees can also learn how U.S. Cellular’s high-speed nationwide network can boost their smart phone experience, along with the benefits of The Belief Project, the company’s array of innovative initiatives that recognize customer loyalty with bundled national plans that offer customers the freedom to enjoy benefits without signing continuous contracts. With “no contract after the first,” new customers who complete a two-year contract will never have to sign another one and will continue to get guaranteed upgrades to the newest phones at promotional prices every 18 months. Customers get valuable rewards just for being customers and can get even faster upgrades in as little as 10 months when they use their rewards.
Several of U.S. Cellular’s value-packed bundled plans are a perfect fit for smart phone users. The $69.99 Primary Plus Plan is the best value in wireless and offers 5GB of data with unlimited text, picture and video messaging, and free Navigation. The monthly service plan also comes with 450 voice minutes with free incoming calls, free nights and weekends and free mobile-to-mobile calls.
The Device Workshops are open to current smart phone owners and anyone interested in upgrading to a smart phone.
The Device Workshop is being offered each month at U.S. Cellular retail stores across Oklahoma. All smart phone accessories will be 25 percent off.

About The Belief Project
The Belief Project, recently named Frost & Sullivan’s Customer Value Enhancement of the Year, recognizes customer loyalty with national bundled plans that offer customers the freedom to enjoy industry-leading benefits without signing continuous contracts.
With “no contract after the first,” new customers who complete a two-year contract will never have to sign another one and will continue to get guaranteed upgrades to the newest phones at promotional prices every 18 months. Existing customers who switch to the new Belief Plans can simply finish out their current contract and never sign a contract again.
While some carriers are increasing the time for phone upgrades, U.S. Cellular customers automatically get valuable rewards just for being a customer that can be used for even faster phone upgrades in as little as 10 months. Rewards can also be used to get additional lines, phones, accessories and ringtones. Customers who refer a friend to a Belief Plan get 1,000 reward points, along with the friend who signed up that could be used to get a new phone one month faster.
Customers can save up to 5 percent on their monthly plans for setting up autopay and paperless billing. U.S. Cellular also introduced the industry’s only Phone Replacement program for customers on select plans. If a customer’s phone accidentally breaks or stops working, U.S. Cellular replaces it with the same or similar model at no additional cost.
These innovative initiatives were developed to elevate the customer experience and create a human relationship with customers, not a contractual one. For more information about The Belief Project, visit uscellular.com.
