My cell service is Liberty Wireless, a Sprint re-seller. Even though I often have only 2-3 bars, I seldom have dropped calls, and the voice quality is good. Ignoring the above reception rating based on bar count, my level of satisfaction would be 4 or 5 stars. There is trouble with reception out in the mountains or little towns, but in Asheville or along the interstate, reception is very good. However, I am dropping my service because the extraordinarily poor customer service of Liberty Wireless. Spring may be quite acceptable but avoid Liberty.

I'm having to swap carriers because Sprint won't stop dropping my calls... I travel a lot and service usually works great in populated areas, but dies outside of them. Doesn't even always work in my house - is different everyday.

AT&T has THE WORST coverage throughout the Asheville area. I have a Verizon Blackberry for work and I NEVER drop calls or lose a signal but with the iPhone I can barely get a signal in my house and I am constantly dropping service.

Very poor reception almost everywhere in Asheville. I live in North Asheville and work in South Asheville. Both areas have almost no reception and I always have to stand outside a house or building if I want to use my cell phone. I do not recommend Sprint. I usually have either no bars or one bar at the most.

I spend a month or two in Asheville each year and bring my Sprint cell phone with me. Have had no problems making or receiving calls in this area or in all our travels around Asheville and suburbs.

Once I get on Riceville Rd. in East Asheville I have about 1 mile of service then in goes in and out all the way to my house on Bull Creek Rd. I get no service on Bull Creek in my house. Maybe sometimes if I stand outside I can talk. I've had Verizon several years ago and it did the say thing. Maybe it's just where I live!

There is no GSM (AT&T) reception in almost all of the new Bartram's Walk subdivision between Town Mountain Rd.and Wolf Cove Rd.in Beaverdam Valley. I highly recommend that all contractors and new home owners in this subdivision use Verizon. Verizon has an antenna on a tower off Elk Mountain Scenic Highway. This tower provides great coverage in Beaverdam Valley. Even though AT&T has pretty good coverage throughout Asheville, this is one growing area where there is a huge dead spot.

I always get wonderful reception everywhere I go in Asheville. Beaver Lake is known to be bad for cell phones. US Cellular has the tower there and my reception is great. My kids have Verizon and Cingular - neither work well at my house. I find I have a lot of trouble receiving calls when roaming outside Asheville. I just get the alert of a missed call, no ring.

ATT / Cingular is awful in Asheville. No reception in most of Haw Creek. Often lose calls from home and on the road in Haw Creek / Tunnel Road / East Asheville area. I was happy with Cingular in Tampa, but it is a very poor service in Asheville. Thank goodness my contract is up, and I am switching to Verizon.

I tried several services until finally going to U.S. Cellular - which has been fantastic. Cingular / AT&T didn't work at all. SunCom was almost as unusable even though I live and work in central areas of town. AT&T at least gave me all my money back. SunCom refused to refund my activation fee even though their service is totally unusable. It should be a crime for these companies to sell their "service" here at all. Verizon reception is almost as good as US Cellular but the customer service in their local store was so attrocious that I decided to try US Cellular instead. I am VERY happy with the reception, phone selection, and customer service. In summary, US Cellular and Verizon will work in Asheville. Everything else is a total waste of money.
