I have had Alltel for 10 years (had Sprint for two during this time as well). I love Alltel, I get 4-5 bars here at home, and have even got service where my boyfriends Verizon cell phone did not (out in the middle of no where near Los Alamos and Santa Fe). I get coverage all the way to Santa Fe (on I-25), and all the way to Clovis, NM (I-40, 60 / 84). My Alltel phone also works perfectly well in Clovis. Once in a while Ill have something crazy happen (takes a long time to send or receive a text, etc.) but Alltel is worth the price! Too bad Verizon bought them out, now I am searching for a new cell phone provider.

We live in "town" but somehow fell into a grey area where reception is worthless. Can rarely talk on phone in the house. Drops calls frequently. Many times the incoming calls go right to voicemail without the phone ringing.

In Ventana Ranch no real issues. Inside and out good service, very few dropped calls. I drive through the petroglyphs along Universe / Unser and consistently drop calls as I drive into the lowest point near Unser / Montano. Other than that, my coverage is great.

I live in the area that is NW of Pennsylvania and Montgomery, behind the 7-11 and my service is very crappy. I might get the call or it might not even ring and just go to voicemail, it's about 50 / 50. Plus if I am making an outgoing call it's bound to get dropped if it's over one minute long. The indicator bars go from several to none, multiple times a minute.

About a year ago I had great reception with Alltel. I had good reception everywhere I went, including my apartment. Over the past year my reception has gotten very poor in the Old Town area where I live and. Rural areas where I frequently travel now have no service at all, but previously provided good service. I hate being contractually tied to a phone service that is no longer functioning as it was when I signed the contract.

In my office, there are people with 4 other cell plans which all get great coverage in the building. When my phone rings, I have to run outside to take the call. My 2 year contract is up in a month, and I can't wait to switch. Alltel has treated me very shabbily in addition-cutting off my son's phone (family plan) before we even got a bill. They had $1200 of bogus roaming and LD charges on it, didn't tell us, and cut his phone off when he was traveling without telling any of us they would do it. Straightening it out was a customer "service" nightmare. Oh ya, they aren't national either-we couldn't find stores in NY or DC when we had difficulty on trips there.

In my home I have to find certain places, and then don't even always get service. I miss calls because they don't even ring on the phone-I only detect them when the beep comes for a message. The same thing happens to my babysitter who has just gotten a new phone with Alltel.

The service is great in the foothills. We started with Alltel when we lived in Gallup and have found that the reception across the state is equal to Verizon and surpasses all the others. If you are going to buy phones, you get a big price break by purchasing on-line as opposed to buying from the nearby stores, on Paseo del Norte or even at ABQ Uptown.

I've been with Alltel for 10 years. I have broke away and tried Verizon once about 5 years ago, but it didn't work out and I switch back within 6 mo. I travel all over NM with my job and Alltel does well. They are certainly not perfect, but do a very good job. I also Have an air card with them and the service have been good. I am not happy that the majority of the State has EVDO internet, but Albuquerque / Santa FE do not. They have been promising this within the next 2 mo for the last year. Now they are saying 6 / 07. That is my only complaint with them. What few billing issues I have had have been addressed quickly and in a professional manner.

I have been with Alltel under various names since 1991. Most of the people I work with are with Verizon, between Albquerque and Taos, Alltel has constantly given me good coverage. In agreement with another review though, Wyoming and Osuna is a dead spot and will drop any call in progress. Must be the Police sub-station I have guessed.

Unser / Arenal / Sage, Albuquerque, NM 87121 Sat May 27, 2006

I have been with AllTel in ABQ for 8.5 years and have been relatively happy. Coverage and service around the metro area has been excellent. Also, cell coverage and service in Las Vegas, NV, Wash., DC, NY, NY, Philadelphia, PA, Salt Lake City, UT, throughout California, Arizona and everywhere else I've been in the continental USA has been GREAT. My current 2-year contract with AllTel is close to expiring and I was looking at carrier / service incentives, considering switching to a another carrier who might have more aggressive incentives. However, after reviewing this Website and seeing the comments on other carriers, I'm now very seriously considering staying with AllTel because of their better cell coverage, inter-carrier roaming agreements and overall service quality.

I have been with the various companies that are currently Alltel since 1991 so I am not complaining about Alltel which has served me at home and in various cities in the Southwest extremely well. Please take this note only to comment on the seemingly permentant dead sport at the location I have listed above.

Gibson / Girard, Albuquerque, NM 87106 Thu Aug 11, 2011

Getting way to many dropped calls for a blackberry bold 9000. ( one of the best receivers for a cell phone.) in the past few weeks. About 2-3 call drops per day or no connection at all sometimes. 3G data service has been very noticeably slower for the past three months as well. looks like AT&T is no longer paying attention to customer these days. first it was the Iphone, now the Blackberry is dropping calls. ( this is a network problem they never fixed, but only managed to tweek. That is not considered a fix. I'll be switching after 10- years with them.

I have had an iPHONE for 3 years and AT&T service in Las Campanas is AWFUL! Once in a while there is a signal for a couple of minutes but still its only 1 bar and EDGE. When I bought my new 3GS the AT&T rep at the store on Zafarano told me that 3GS would be in Santa Fe "within 90" days... well that 5 months ago and nada. I had T-Mobile 3 years ago and had pretty good service in Las Campanas, I still wish I had t-Mobile... .. I hate AT&T service in Santa Fe.
