WiMacTel
WiMacTel (also known as Viiz Communications[1]) is an active payphone service provider[2] and operator service provider, that operates in the United States and Canada. They operate Bell System/Western Electric single-slot payphones and they are the only service provider in the U.S. & Canada that operates Nortel Millennium payphones[3]. They acquired the assets of FSH Communications in 2013[4] and have also acquired some assets from Qwest.
The company is one of the last payphone operators in the United States alongside Pacific Telemanagement Services and some smaller independent telephone companies and is also the only company in North America to operate Nortel Millennium payphones.
The company has an A+ rating on the Better Business Bureau website because "it responds to all customer complaints even though a resolution is not always found"[5], however there are multiple complaints about the company's overcharging of collect and card calls.[5][6] [[File:WiMacTel payphone at Overlake Hospital.jpg|thumb|This Millennium payphone is in Overlake Hospital in Bellevue, WA.
