No carrier works in my home, none! I have tried them all. Saw that T-Mobile has ability to makes calls through the wireless internet, thus making sure to have coverage in my home. They gave me a free router. All you need is DSL internet or faster and coverage can be 5 bars in anyone's home. Outside my home... very very comparable to Verizon as I am a sales rep and travel all over NE Ohio.
Alltel is the best service I've ever had (I've also been on Sprint and AT&T). I've dropped MAYBE five calls in the two years that I've had them. Too bad they're being sold to Verizon...
I've been with Alltel for several months and I have been really happy with the coverage here. My wife and I initially switched from Verizon to save a few bucks on our family plan with but was happy to discover that the signal was just as good if not better all over the area here. My phone is always on full signal and we're getting a lot more minutes and paying less with that circle deal which is unlimited to 10 numbers and on all family plans. Even in brick apartment building or back of Wal-Mart, my phone can always make or receive a call and is usually on full signal. Calls sound great and I've had no problems. Alltel really is a provider that I'm happy I switched to.
Perfect reception downtown. Excellent reception in most areas of the eastern burbs. I only know of two "dead" spots - one being the Coventry area, and the other being a small pocket in the southern end of Willoughby Hills. Everywhere else I get at least 3 out of 5 bars. I don't get out to the west side much.
I've had Sprint, Cingular, Nextel, Verizon and now Alltel for the last 2 years.. this is the best overall service i've had... the others would either have excellent reception sometimes but drop calls often, or poor reception regularly and drop calls not too often, the only company that came close to Alltel's was Verizon, but Alltel's customer service has been he best... I haven't had a single dropped called in the nearly two years of service and that being with using sometimes upwards of 9,000 minutes (including night and weekends) per month... definitely sticking with Alltel all the way!
