US Cellular


I would take a shotgun blast to the face, followed with a good spray of OC on the wound before I would get service with Verizon.

Nextel. Everyone in the fire service around here has them. Makes things very easy most of the time.

I have never needed customer service.  I have no problems with ATT/Cingular.  A buddy of mine has Verizon and hates it.

I've used  US Celluler,Sprint,Nextel,and Cingluar.

I prefer Cingular,  yes their customer service sucks,  but I've never had to call them because their shit always works.
Unlike sprint who I had to calll just about every month.
Sprint also renegotiates roaming contracts on a weekly basis sometimes, So you can roam somewhere 1 week, but not the next week in the same spot.
Nextel has crappy coverage, but has/had a niche market with PTT.
And Analog cell sucks, what can you say.

I use Sprint, mainly because my family uses it, so it's free to keep in touch with them.  I had Verizon a few years ago.

Verizon's got better reception, but I've had much better customer service experiences with Sprint than with Verizon.

Verizon. Haven't needed customer service.

Our reception is somewhat spotty from our house, but we live at the bottom of some large hills in a rural area. We also can't get cable internet, Verizon internet, DSL, blah-blah-blah.
I love it here, but it's too small of a town for big companies to get excited about.

Alltel, no other company I would go with for wireless coverage.

Sprint.  No problems whatsoever.  Great service, very few dropped calls (and all in a couple very small areas of town).  Great coverage when I am on the road and my plan is pretty good.

Net10 prepaid, I think it uses the Sprint network. $30 = 2 months and 300 minutes that rollover, works for me everytime. I'll take $15 a month instead of the $50 I used to pay Cingular. I don't use more than 150 minutes a month though YRMV.
