Ilive in White House Community between Marion and Rutherfordton, below Sugarhill and north east of Lake Lure and north west of Rutherfordton we can't get out on Cingular from Sugar Hill School down to Bills Creek almost to Fairfield Mountains. Just in one or two spots. There is a cell phone tower on Pinacle mountain directly to the east of my house. I am almost level with the tower. I would like to know whose tower it is and if I can get good service with that carrier. Verizon is better but nobody gets great service. I would like to know which is the best and if all these developements going up in McDowell county will help us to get better coverage. It hurts to pay for something you can only use when you are not at home and I mean almost in town. Don't we country folk count. We are the ones needing cell service most because we are so isolated.
I get 3 or more bars most anywhere in the county, in my house can't really get a signal unless I step outside. but driving around the county only place I really lose signal and drop calls is on 221 going into rutherford county. I have used Verizon and us cellular, Verizon was okay us cellular wasn't that great. I probably wouldn't change from sprint.
