Should I use trademark symbol?

Question

I am putting together an infographic about the communications industry, and I was wondering if I should use registry marks or trademark symbols when referring to the companies:

Verizon
Time Warner
Comcast
T-mobile
etc...

Nuff Sed · Answer

No, only the trademark owners would want to use the tm or ® symbol, as a reminder to others that the brand is a registered mark, not that it matters.  Unless you have a contract with them that requires you to follow their marking policies, feel free to ignore the registration or tm symbols.

Also worth noting: "referring to the companies" is legally different from "referring to their trademarks"; a business name is not necessary a trademark and vice versa.

No your not using them for your personal gain or trying to say your part of them,
the best in cost, no dropped calls etc is consumers.com that you might check on for your
report. They have the best price to. I dropped Verizon which was costing me twice the amount
for the same service and yess they dropped calls with in 5 miles of their tower.
