| MNO | Associated Carriers |
| T-Mobile | Sprint, Sprint MVNO, Sprint Spectrum, Boost, Virgin Mobile, T-Mobile USA, Omnipoint, Powertel, Voicestream, Eliska Wireless, Aerial Communication, Metro PCS |
| AT&T | AT&T, Cingular, AT&T Corp |
| Verizon Wireless | Verizon, Bell Atlantic, Bluegrass, MCI Metro |
| US Cellular | USCC, US Cellular Corp, United States Cel |
In general, you will not see the associated carriers listed in the "Destination" column of your CDRs as TSG Global will normalize and label them with the appropriate MNO surcharge.
