Constantly end up roaming on Suncom as I get dropped by Cingular and not just in the specified location but all over Charleston! Who is Suncom anyhow?

I have had both Sun Com and Cingular and the reception is bad to say the least. There is a major hospital and a university two blocks from were I live and with all the business around US 78 and I-26 you would think the reception would be better?

Reception on The Citadel's campus is very poor. There are a few patches where low reception might be available, but otherwise you cannot make or receive calls from most areas on campus.

Suncom sucks. Can't get reception in my home but, my brother, who is with Cingular gets great reception-with the same phone! Suncom tech support admits that their towers are using only a 900Mhz signal not the higher frequency modes of Cingular. Also false advertising on Suncoms part because they sell tri-mode phones but, it's a waste of money if your towers can't work in the higher ranges. And good luck getting out of your conract.

In the tri-county area, the reception is very good. Nextel gets as good as any of the other carriers. They have more rugged equipment also. Go Nextel!

Worst reception ever, have to go upstairs to window for it to work. My aunt comes over with Verizon and gets full bars and very fast, I wouldn't recomend Sprint at all.

Dropped calls all the time until I changed cell phone to Sanyo (2004); hardly any dropped calls since. Looking to upgrade to Blackberry or Treo and wondering if differnt brand will again cause me to have dropped calls.
