While i'm not sure if Verizon has the best plans... .I really can't complain about anything. The most impressive thing was that I never lost reception during Alison or ANY of our storms last year. I have reception in places I'm told others don't and have been way out in the back roads on my motorcycle and have gotten reception. I do have an occasional dropped call. While i'm thinking of looking at other companies, what I'm reading here may change that.
I have to said that T-Mobile has an amazing network in the sugarland area. It is also amazing in major highways. Reception is spotty in North Houston. However, the network is horrible inside buildings. T-Mobile is horrible in city where there were many tall buildings such as New York City.Well, I guess other GSM carrier are the same when it comes to reception inside buildings and rural area. Overall, GSM coverage in the USA needs a lot of improvement. When I travel to Asia and Europe, I found their GSM network much better than the USA, because I get reception pretty much everywhere including subways, basement, buildings and even rural areas. Europe seems to have the best network.
Constantly being dropped or can't make calls at all. When people call me, goes straight to VM without ringing. While my colleagues has no problem using Verizon phone. Other parts of the town works okay for me.
I use my cell phone mainly in the northwest Housotn area. I've had little or no trouble from The Woodlands to Pasadena, from Hempstead to Southwest Houston. I'm surprised to read the less than satisfactory experience T-Mobil users are having. I couldn't be happier however all I use it for is making and receiving calls. My boss has a more expensive model and seems to have problems quite often. I didn't think the phone make or model would make that much difference, but reading these and other revirews for T-Mobile, I am beginning to beleive the phone make and model can make a big difference.
Very spotty. Get horrible reception in my apt. on Hawthorne and Yupon, but a few blocks away and it's fine. My friends that have other services can get reception in my apt.
