OKLAHOMA CITY, March 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Verizon Wireless ranked highest among all other national wireless providers in the Southwest Region in the J.D. Power 2014 Wireless Network Quality Study, Volume 1, issued on March 6, 2014. The Southwest Region includes Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, Kansas and Missouri.

The J.D. Power study measured network quality among U.S. wireless service providers in its survey of wireless subscribers about calling, messaging and data service between July and December 2013. Based on their responses, Verizon Wireless, for the second consecutive time, was ranked highest among national wireless companies in all six regions, including the Southwest Region.  

"The results of the J.D.

The company continues to build out its network to meet customer demand with the introduction of new technologies such as the deployment of AWS spectrum in 2013.

As part of its commitment to ensure its customers have a powerful, reliable network, Verizon Wireless invested $9.4 billion in its network last year.  In Oklahoma, the company invested almost $64 million in its wireless network in 2013.
