South Central Bell
the name of the Bell Operating Company serving the South-Central US
The South Central Bell Telephone Company is an Internet/telephone network provider in the Southern United States. It operates in Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, Tennessee and part of Louisiana.[1] It was created in July 1968 when the Southern Bell telephone company was divided.[1]
Beginning in 1992, the name South Central Bell was no longer used for corporate marketing although the SCB provider still exists.[1] Southern Bell and South Central Bell today do business as the "new" AT&T (or American Telephone and Telegraph).[1] This is following a merger between SBC Communications and the original AT&T in 2006. In the late 2000s or 2010s, the South Central Bell and Southern Bell names were brought back by the "new" AT&T.[1]
