New plan allows customers to pay once for Internet access on smartphone and at
home

CINCINNATI--(Business Wire)--
Leveraging its ability to deliver high-speed Internet service on smartphones and
at home, Cincinnati Bell Inc. (NYSE: CBB) today announced a revolutionary
program designed around one simple question: "Why Pay For Two?" 

Cincinnati Bell`s WhyPayForTwo plan delivers unlimited Internet access and text
messaging on a smartphone and ZoomTown high-speed Internet access at home for
$39.99 a month - a price the competition charges for just one service. 

According to Cincinnati Bell President and CEO Jack Cassidy, the appeal of
WhyPayForTwo is simplicity. "Today`s consumer uses the Internet at home and on
the go to check e-mail, post updates on social media sites and browse the Web.
We believe there`s only one Internet and consumers shouldn`t pay twice to
connect to it. With WhyPayForTwo, Cincinnati Bell delivers Internet access on a
smartphone and at home at half the price. It`s as simple as that." 

Unlike other companies, Cincinnati Bell is the only carrier in Greater
Cincinnati that offers high-speed Internet access via a smartphone and at home.
