BANNOCKBURN, ILL.-Moore Business Communication Services (BCS), a division of Moore Corporation Limited, Toronto, signed an agreement with Bedminster, N.J.-based Verizon Wireless-reportedly the nation's largest wireless communications provider-to print and mail monthly customer billing statements. The value of the deal was not disclosed.

Involved in the print contract is Financial Statement Services Inc. (FSSI), Santa Ana, Calif., which, working with Moore, will help print and mail all of Verizon Wireless's subscriber billing statements by the end of 2001, when conversions from other bill print providers are completed.

This agreement extends Moore BCS's current work with Verizon Wireless, which includes imaging and packaging of the company's prepaid cellular phone cards and managing the western region's bill printing and mail program.

Additionally, The Phoenix Group, a division of Moore Corporation, supports several of Verizon Wireless's divisions with Web development, research, and data analysis.

"Timely, accurate bill statements are a critical part of our customer service," explains John Hinshaw, vice president of information technology for Verizon Wireless. "Moore has the resources to support our commitment to deliver the highest-quality billing service to our customers."
