My fiance's family lives out in Payne and I ALWAYS have to shut my phone off once I turn off of 24 just south of Antwerp. It drains my battery otherwise and I never get any service while out there. I might get one or two texts out if I set my phone up on a counter in their kitchen. I had emailed them once when I was thinking of moving out there, complaining that there is no service and that I don't want to switch from Verizon because I like them, but I can't have a cell without service and they said that they don't have a license to cover that area. It is literally just Payne. Anywhere else in that county, I can get service, but once in Payne village limits... zippo. I think it's ridiculous since they claim to have the most coverage, there is literally one little spot in the whole state of Ohio without service, and it's the one spot I need it in. Now that my fiance moved here, we talked about getting him on my plan, but we can't because when it comes to traveling out there, we need to have a phone that has service, and he has it when he's out there. It's just sad. I saw that there was a cell tower going up in Paulding today... but I don't know what provider its through, but we can only hope its verizon!

Sprint put a tower here in Payne, OH and get all bars! Sprint is the best cell phone provider! Verizon no coverage go figure.
