New York, NY - July 18, 2002 - ATX Communications, Inc. (Nasdaq: COMMD), a leading integrated communications provider, announces that it has recently formed a strategic partnership with Action Travel Center, Inc. The Cleveland travel agency, a two-time recipient of the Better Business Bureau Award honoring Outstanding Commitment to Customer Service, is utilizing ATX's streamlined ATX CoreConnectSM Preferred Plus solution. The agency's local exchange carrier, inter-exchange carrier, toll, data, and Internet services are consolidated through two high bandwidth capacity facilities (T1 lines), which help manage the agency's daily call volume.
"We chose ATX/CoreComm because we were confident that they could effectively handle our travel agency's heavy call volume at our main office in Solon and our branch in Ashtabula," explains Arlene Goldberg, Action Travel's president and co-founder. "Not only has ATX/CoreComm been able to reduce our monthly communication bills by over 30%, but with the installation of the T1 lines, our phone lines work quickly and smoothly and our computer reservation system is faster."
Founded in 1980, Action Travel Center, Inc. is a full-service travel management company and the oldest and largest professional travel management company in Solon, Ohio. Action Travel is a division of Professional Travel, Inc., Ohio's largest privately owned travel management company.
Action Travel is a travel partner with Apple Vacations, one of the nation's largest vacation companies and a longtime ATX customer, through Apple's national network of travel agencies.
