AT&T / Cingular has Ok reception in the area with lots of pockets of poor or no reception. We live near exit 51 off I-20 between Nazareth and Platt Springs. There is a huge coverage hole on Longs Pond then it ranges between 3-1 bars for most of the area. Lots of dropped calls throughout LexCola. several Zero spots on I-20 I-77 and Platt Springs. Does better in NE side, 26, Harbison, Lake Murry, Balintine, Chapin. But I don't live in those areas, so my experiance may vary from those locals. Bottom Line I am switching after 10years w-them. Great Customer Service - Poor reception.

Signal dies in this area and will not pick up.

I can't get reception in my house. Have to go outside to talk (rainy days... .) on my cell phone. My cordless phone gets an extreme amount of static if I step outside or in my garage. I just moved here in June 2005. I can't imagine why this area is so horrible with wireless signals. What in the world is causing this problem? Is there any hope or do we continue to pay and get far less than acceptable service?

No reception

The only thing worse than Alltel's reception is their Customer "NO" Service.

Verizon is tops for this area. Suncom is the pits. Suncom has dropped towers in SC. I switched our company to Verizon from Suncom.

SunCom AT&T is my service provider. I travel the entire state of SC weekly. I've learned to stay close to the major highways, or I will most likely be in deadzoneville very quickly.

Good to average reception on and around major metro and interstates. Bad to no reception off the beaten path. Not a good service if you travel alot
