Citizens Communications - Frontier Companies
(formerly Global Crossing)
(RTTC)

Return to Corporate History Home Page



1990 - 2000


Frontier Companies is the holding company under Citizens Communications (CTTC) for 28 operating companies. All but Rochester Telephone Corporation (RTNY) are below the revenue threshold requirement for filing ARMIS reports. However, because Frontier Corporation is an elective price cap company, it must file the ARMIS Service Quality (43-05) Report at the study area level for its operating companies. On 9/28/1999, Global Crossing acquired Frontier Corporation, which continues to operate as the holding company for its 28 operating companies.

2001


On 6/30/2001 Citizens Communications purchased Global Crossing's incumbent local exchange companies (Frontier Companies). However, Citizens Communications is currently keeping the Frontier Companies under separate holding companies for reporting purposes.

2002 - 2008


Citizens Frontier Companies had no changes during this period.
