Alltel was horrible in my area. tried to use Alltel as an alternative to my home phone with no luck. Also no coverage on 460 W going into Bedford

I have great coverage in the entire Lynchburg area... is just listed this particular section because live in the area and do not have home phones... we depend on our cell phones for communication inside our homes and it works fantastic. made the mistake of going to Alltel for 2 weeks to try to save on cost and the coverage was horrific (same phone)

In the far western portion of the Fort Hill area, there is either one bar or no reception with AT&T. If you're inside of a home, forget it. I know AT&T's 1900MHz signal has a notoriously poor reputation around the area, but when you're in the middle of the city, you'd expect at least 3 or 4 bars. In fact, I'd expect that anywhere within city limits. Lynchburg isn't that large of a town.

I have read a lot of comments and agree WE NEED MORE TOWERS! Reception through parts of Timberlake Rd, ( suck) For the past 6 mths or so I've had one problem or another and each time I call they blame the phone, this, that or the other and it has become such a hassle... ..I'm lucky here lately if I get one bar, and usually have to wear the blue tooth inside to talk at all. I hope ATT wakes and up and realizes we do more towers and espeically through certain parts of Timberlake Rd, they might be losing some good customers within the near future.

I've used Alltel and Verizon all around Lynchburg, Bedford, Forest, Roanoke, etc. These two are the best by far. Verizon uses Alltel's numerous towers in the area so these two rank at the same level. From what I understand, Verizon is putting up a tower in Lynchburg very soon which will bring full digital coverage for Verizon customers. I highly recommend Alltel or Verizon in the Lynchburg area. I would strongly caution against Sprint or TMobile in this area. They will get fine coverage in certain spots but not consistently like Alltel and Verizon. I have several friends and coworkers who have service through Sprint or TMobile who wish they could switch right now.

No reception in much of my home. I work from home. I am not pleased.

I have had Alltel for more than two years and have had no problems with reception. It's the best wireless company I have had. We only have cellphones with no landline phone at all so it is very important to get good reception. I would really like to switch to TMobile to get better rates but am a little leary to do so.

great much better than us cellular

Coverage is good in most areas, but has gotten worse in the last two years. There is no coverage in most of Rivermont, near either hospital, and it drops calls everytime on Lakeside and Enterprise near Wyndhurst. I will have 5 bars in some areas and still not be able to make or keep a call. ANd then, three seconds later, I can. Very frustrating.

I get service pretty much everywhere except in my home and the Wyndhurst Community.
