I love Alltel. I have been with several carriers and they all suck compared to Alltel. My mother has been through several as well and seems to be always looking at her phone.. it's sprint... its always searching for service or roaming no matter where we go. I always have service. Of course there are a few small areas where reception sucks.. but what do you expect when you are driving through 100 miles of NOTHING. Nextel is the WORST! I have friends that NEVER answer their phones becuase.. guess what.. IT DOESNT RING! I would definitely recommend Alltel to anyone living in Flordia. My service has been awesome and the customer service is really good too. Just make sure you get it from an ACTUAL Alltel STORE and not an 'authorized dealer'. At the store they will replace it on the spot.. at the Auth Dealer you have some serious problems on your hands. Blue Skies...
Can't even recieve missed calls in the my house. Have to go outside and wave my phone around to get a couple bars to check my voicemail. Also, sometimes I can't check my voicemail because my phone sometimes says Cingular. Very frustrating!
I have had great reception here with Cingluar (now AT&T) for many years. I get 5 bars all the way until about 2 miles from the Florida / Georgia border. It used to be that I had no reception at the Texaco just across the border, but now I get 2-3 bars and can make calls just fine. Inside my house Thomasville and Foxcroft Dr. I get 5 bars provided I am sitting at my desk near a window. At work, Thomasville and Metropolitan Blvd, I also get 5 bars. This is just south of I-10. Inside, 3-5 bars depending on where I am in the building and proximity to a window. People who are expecting 5 bars inside a building are just dreaming. The structures just block some of the signal.
dropped calls at: N.Monroe and Tennessee St. Thomasville Rd.at Kerry Forest CapCirNW at Fred George calls are dropped ALWAYS. plus, phone goes from no bars to 5 bars instantly. I travel the city continuosly, and get dropped calls all over, especially in the areas listed above. Have been with Nextel for 6 years. The cell service has sucked horribly for the past 18 months. I am looking forward, eagerly, to a new cell service provider.
Piney Z and Golden Pheasant, very poor signal. No signal in alot of buildings within tallahassee, an example inside suntrust on magnolia dr, Sams club..etc.
