Was with Sprint, had no signal at all at home. Switched to T-Mobile and I get perfect reception in my house. Never had a dropped call or poor call quality. And I pay less...

BEST Carrier in Deschutes County! US Cellular has been our Carrier of choice since 1999... we have always been happy with their service and their coverage has been excellent. Especially in the past 5 years. Have a few Dead areas while travelling over the Cascades (primarily on the West side) but then who hasn't? We think their services offer the best value as well.

I have NEVER had a reception problemin Deschutes County. We have only used US Cellular as our carrier (since 1999). Our 1st phone was an audiovox... then we each have had Motorolas and now we each have an HTC. The only spots recently that we run into no service is traveling over the mountains and run into dead areas on the west side. Or while rafting in deep canyons. US Cellular will be our Carrier of choice for a LONG time. Did I mention how reasonable they are? A+++++++++

Perfect coverage have driven to Summer Lake, and Newport with minimal drops in service. If Sprint Towers are not available I get to use Verizon towers. Best Deal in bend for reception "SPRINT"

Love Verizon! This whole state is covered in 3G. We will never switch from them.

I've been in Bend,OR for five years. I been with AT&T the whole time. And reception as been perfect. And I too have experienced a drop in bars back in Nov 2009. Called AT&T and they said they can do nothing but gave me hope about towers and network coverage coming soon. So I wait and slowly it did get better and now my phone switched to 3G... .Its still in and out,but full bars on Edge or 3G. I recommend to the guy on gift rd is try another high end smartphone that gets better reception. And I get full 3G in Redmond too. Hand in there... .it will get better!

I had always had good reception in Central Oregon and when traveling. I'm not sure why more people don't use US cellular. The only spot where I get dropped calls is in Walmart and it actually hasn't happend in the last few months! I give an A+ for my carrier!

Verizon works great here! No one els has service threw central OR other than Verizon. The added 3G all over the place as well! Way to go Verizon!

Switching from Unicel since Verizon bought them out, I got great coverage on unicel and I have great coverage on verizon. to make thing even better they told me that Verizon is switching all the unicel towers to Verizon YAY. by far the best cell company in bend. NOTE: I had T-Mobile for a while, DO NOT GET IT, the coverage is really bad.

Ever since I got my Verizon phone ( I switched from unicel when I heard Verizon was going to buy them) The service has been better than good. Unfortunately, I went to the authorized dealer on Hwy. 20( Greenwood), for the most part they did a good job, but when my moms glyde wasnt working properly they just kept saying its not the phone, and guess what... It was the phone^_^, but in the end it was all worked out

Great service. I used to have T-Mobile and didn't get the reception I needed outside of town. I also had Sprint and had lots of dropped calls. Verizon is the best I have found in this area. I went to The WirelessSouce on Greenwood and they were very helpful. The staff did more than any other place I have ever done business with. Give them a try! You won't regret it.

With Verizon launching service roughly a year and a half ago, I suspect they will corner the Central Oregon market. There service is superior to all other carriers with regards to both voice quality and customer service. I purchased my service from The Wireless Source (I would suggest never purchasing service from a corporate store). The sales rep was extremely knowledgeable and gave the best service, by far, that I have ever received when purchasing a phone. Verizon blows all other Central Oregon carriers out of the water!

I just got a new Dare phone from The Wireless Source on Greenwood. It is a great phone; the service seems to be the best I have ever had and I have exclusively used cell phones for the last 11 years. No more landlines for me! The people at the store were great - spent lots of time going through features of the phone and helped me understand my first bill. They did a followup call and reminded me about my rebate (I had put it in the file with my other papers and forgot all about sending it in). That saved me $50! Can't say enough good things about the people over there. Nice and efficient! I would highly recommend them!

I have recently switched to Verizon Wireless and it is the only carrier to work at my house. There is a new little store next to Longboard Louies on the East side of Town, right off of Hwy. 20. It's called The Wireless Source. They sell only Verizon Service but it is by far the best cellular experience I have ever had. They are knowledgeable, kind and patient. They have followed up with me to see how my service has been, (which it's been great, no dropped calls, easy to use phone, etc.) made sure I mailed my rebate in, and I could tell they genuinely cared about how my service ways! 2 thumbs up to The Wireless Source. I'd recommend them to anyone! It's amazing how much great service can make a difference.

Good in most areas. Spotty in NE Bend. Get dropped / no reception in big stores when in middle, but get reception closer to doors. Good most areas of town, even inside buildings.

everyone is saying T-Mobile sucks and unicel is great, but if you have T-Mobile and lose coverage your phone will use a unicel tower. but don't get T-Mobile togo, it gets way less reception

6 or 7 (out of 7) bars everywhere. great reception, don't know what you guys are talking about.

Great reception and service on US Cellular - no complaints. Originally, we had T-Mobile and that was absolutely worthless. Next was Cellular One.. it was okay but better plan with US Cellular so switched two years ago. Best deal and reception is with US Cellular. I get reception just about everywhere on Mt Bach and around Central Oregon. Renewing for another 2 years...

great reception and never drops calls all over central oregon.

I have had my razr for about 8 months now and I have not dropped a single call. If I am traveling to Medford from Bend, I normally have reception all the way from Bend to about 1 / 2 a mile from Crater Lake. I have not seen any other carry come close to US Cellulars reception and service.
