I have used Verizon, TMobile, and Nextel. I left Verizon because of continuous dropped calls and extremely poor quality no matter where I went... Including lousy customer service. I went to Nextel because that is what is used where I work in Troy, though it is not a company provided phone. The service was abhorrid to say the least. As a last resort I went to Cingular. While I did not have any high expectations, based upon conversations that I had with engineers from other carriers, I must say that both my wife and I are extremely pleased. Not only do we get a full signal in our home, but everywhere we go. With the other providers, my calls would drop 6 or 7 times between my commute to Troy. With Cingular, I have not had a single dropped call, nor have I had any garbled communications. The bottom line is that my wife and I are extremely happy with this service so far and that goes a long way toward keeping our business... .
Only get one bar if I work at it. Cannot use phone in the house. Have to walk out to the road. Also there are dead spots along Stobbart between Hickory Ridge and Kenningston Road. I drive I-96 every day to Lansing, and calls are dropped all the time when I switch towers. My husband has a different provider, and although his reception is better, it is still not good at our house.
Verizon works great. Their plans are a little higher then most, but being the best coverage of all carrier's, I guess they can get away with it. My brother's in Hawaii and the free M/M min are a plus. As for travelings in Mich, I maybe get 1 dropped call a month. I use about 5000, min a month. 99% are free Mobile / Mobile Min. In all we have 10 family members with Verizon. All with Free M/M, or In, I think they call it now. Between us most everyone has tried different carriers Spint, Cingular, ATT. None of which is as good as Verizon. Most of us travel alot, and are spread out all over.
