Constantly dropped calls, lots of dead spots in my home. Alltel claims I have 3 towers in the vicinity and doesn't understand why I have dropped calls. Hard to do business on a cell this way.
Alltel is actually the best service as well with t-mobile. the coverage and the rate plans are the best. Cingular sucks... ... fewest dropped calls... ..o wait is that false advertisement or hmmmm... ... im actually a dealer so I know these things. I used 2000 minutes and I some how dropped 3 calls. Alltel and T-Mobile I would have to give a excellent mark for service. Verizon is a good service but they dont have the my circle and Alltel actually has better service then them.
Odd, this Alltel. I just switched from Sprint (don't ask me why - just kick me!) and have found that SOMETIMES I have coverage in my neighborhood (Desert Hills) with Alltel and sometimes not! This past weekend I couldn't make a call at all. Today (Monday) no problems! I am (as are many of you) caught up in a new 2 yr, so yep - no recourse except to say "thanks for the s_x lady" and move on - no longer term potential here! LOL Seriously, does anyone in my area (Desert Hills) get good service on Alltel while at home? If so, perhaps it is my phone. Post here if you can. Thanks!
I Live in an area called Dove Canyon, I get great reception at my home from my Alltel service. My wife and daughter get little or no service at my home with their providers, Sprint and Cingular. T-Mobile does not come in at my home either.
The reception here is horrible in the South Mountain area. I am forever dropping calls. I was told Alltel was going to put a tower at 24th and Baseline but so far nothing.
I've been with Cellular One / alltel for almost 8 years. I have occasional dropped calls in buildings or when going between mountians but it's LOTS better than my husband's AT&T / Cingular GSM. I've traveled within AZ to Cottonwood, Cornville, Sedona with average to good reception almost everywhere. I also traveled to MN this summer and had good reception in almost all the areas in South Twin Cities metro area as well as Rochester. I look around but I don't think that I can beat what I've got.
