SAY HELLO TO OMNIPOINT
Omnipoint Communications is the first 100% digital wireless
service provider in the New York area. That means your calls go
through more easily. Your conversations sound better. And all
your communications are secure.
But talking is just the beginning. Your Omnipoint handset is more
than a phone – it’s a communications center in the palm of your
hand. It can work like an answering machine and pager. Send and
receive short e-mail messages. Even transmit faxes and data. And
it’s so easy.
As an Omnipoint user, you’ll also find we’re easy to get along with.
Communication services are included as part of your monthly service
package, not extra add-ons. There are no surprises. Your billing
statements are simple. We’re so confident in our service, you don’t
even have to sign a contract.
Our goal is to serve you better, faster, and more comprehensively.
Welcome!
