No problems here like I did with AT&T. I always have great service.

Beats AT&T and Sprints coverage and customer service!

Switched from AT&T to Verizon and love there network. There 3G is awesome and all over Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama.

Wonderful coverage and service! Happy that I can talk to Alltel people for free as well! Love Verizons EVDO coverage!

Comment applies to indoor reception at my workplace. If I move into the aisle (I'm not far from a window), I can usually get a signal, but I have missed a number of calls only to get a notification a few minutes later that I have a voice mail, because when I'm at my desk working I don't consistently have a signal.

I had 2 friends with Cingular test reception at my house, and it was fine (with Sprint I always had random reception in my house... was barely passable). It was perfect for them. So, I switched to Cingular and got the Sony Ericsson phone. Great phone, and anywhere OTHER than my house, great reception (almost always 4 bars). However, in my house, I get the same random signal I did with Sprint, but it is even worse. Maybe I live in a weird spot, so I cant say its the phone... other than I guess some phones handle poor reception better than others. When I say I get variable reception, I mean that over a 5 second period it will fluctuate between 0.5 bars and 4 bars. Sigh. I thought it was because I lived near the National Guard and Red Cross, but walking closer to either building makes my reception go to 4 bars solid. So, my review would be GOOD anywhere but here... in my house, its POOR. So, maybe its not the phone or Cingular, but some interaction, or maybe I'm in limbo.

Service and reception are exceptional in my area, however, seems like the company is slow to get newer model phones. As a matter of fact, it seems as though we are the last to get some of the cool new phones. And I hate that Cellular South won't let us use unlocked phones from other companies. :( Shopping around for another provide now, I'm like a kid... I like bells and whistles and cool touch screen phones with cool, convenient features.

Tried Cellular South's unlimited plan for one month, but the coverage was horrible. Went with Cingular GSM back in June. Coverage was spotty at first, but has dramatically improved. I travel over 30,000 miles in Miss. each year and have had very few dropped calls. Completely satisfied.

The T-Mobile coverage map shows this as having great service. The truth is far different. If we go outside we might get a signal.

I'm happy to see I wasn't the only one having problems with AT&T where I live! The AT&T people kept saying it was my phone and tried to get me to upgrade! It wasn't my phone because everyone who came over with AT&T had no service. The ones with Verizon did. I switched to Verizon this past weekend and I am very happy I did.
