Switched all my AT&T lines (5) to the new Verizon in our area. Works great! The internet is fast and covers alot more then AT&T did out here. I got 1 BlackBerry Curve, 2 LG enV3, 1 LG enV Touch, and a Nokia 7205 for the wife. We are happy so far! I think people should go check out and see what Verizon has to offer. The Friends and Family will be helpful. Now its time to get the rest of our family over and get the $25.00 reward thing!

T-Mobile has really improved over the years. Back in 2005, they had terrible coverage in north and east Lubbock, even having no service at times. Today, you will have great service in the all the city of Lubbock aside from basements and a few buildings. But if you're driving, you'll have at least 4 bars but usually 5, and with great call quality. But if you must have service in a basement or in a building that blocks signal, choose AT&T or alltel. They always have service in the places where T-Mobile signal degrades. The only thing that sucks about T-Mobile is that they have no 3G. The only carriers that offer high speed data in Lubbock is Alltel with EVDO and AT&T with 3G.

Great reception everywhere I go in town. I always have all bars. Even in the basement of the buildings on the Texas Tech campus. I love taking advantage of EVDO in Lubbock finally! Verizon Wireless will officially be in Lubbock next month, and I think that Lubbockites will love it! :-)

I switched from AT&T to Boost. Good bars everywhere except at Texas Tech's building basements. AT&T definitely had way stronger service

I very rarely drop calls, except in some of the shops in the mall. The service usually works well in the rural areas and small towns not served by the big carriers. The only complaint is the poor voice quality that I get sometimes, but this is mainly due to the "crystal clear digital" system that all the carriers use and the effects that call congestion have on it.

Switched to Verizon a week after it was available, and I have had good service all throughout Lubbock. Full bars outside, and buildings have 2-3 out of 4. Even in a store at the mall, where I had 0 bars, I was on the phone, and it sounded perfect.

The connection often drops. The reception is terrible all around Lubbock. There are small towns in West Texas where I don't even get a roaming signal although I see other people talking on cell phones.

Cingular works very well here in west TX. Was with Cellular One previously, and their coverage was very poor. I could be sitting in my living room with 5 bars showing, and as soon as I place a call, it would drop to 2 bars or less. Frequent dropped calls. No such problems with Cingular.

had the iphone with AT&T until yesterday. I couldn't place calls, text, data, etc. AT&T said it was my phone. Come to find out, they were having a network outage across the US. I was so sick of their crap I moved my 5 lines to Verizon. All were out of contract except my iphone. Verizon has a great network here (pre alltel) and has added new towers. Sounds great, and data speeds are fast. Customer Service is great too.
