Verizon works so much better than any other phone provider. I have friends who ask to use my phone just because they have bad single. On certain parts of campus there are rough spots -- but with in very limited area. Inside most buildings service is perfect (basements can sometimes be trouble spots). I don't know of any other service provider that even comes close to the amount of coverage Verizon offers in Williamsburg

I agree with others reviewing other networks that William and Mary is a little bit of a trouble area, I can still hold a call throughout campus and not drop but I get down to about 2 bars in most buildings but some buildings seem worse, I don't know if it's interference or what. I've tried Verizon and that got down to 0-1 bars and doesn't work in the same places. So overall, I'm happy with Alltel and after listening to friends and trying Verizon and Alltel, Alltel is definitely the best option around here. Friends with Cingular and Sprint tell me not to even think about getting them. I wish they'd allow another tower closer to W&M though for all providers. Throughout the rest of Williamsburg, coverage just fine, much better than it was with Verizon. I average 1-2 extra bars with Alltel and the calls don't drop. They sound clear. Love the My Circle feature, my family plan went from $110 / month to $70 / month with My Circle because I didn't need 2100 anytime minutes. Don't pay Verizon's outrageous prices, Alltel gives more minutes and My Circle. I'm working hard on converting the rest of my family not on my account, but I've loved Alltel here since I got it. I don't have any problems where I live, at the mall, in any of the residential areas, at Wal-Mart. I'm happy with the service all over Williamsburg and compared to others, it's just as good or better everywhere.

sprint reception is TERRIBLE in my house. Sprint says that we just happen to live in a dead spot which is incredibly frustrating. I have heard from many people here (including william and mary students) that Verizon is much better.

Sprint provides very poor coverage in the Williamsburg area. I will be changing carrier as soon as I can.

Verizon works generally well all over Williamsburg, typically hanging around 3 to 4 bars (out of 6 on this phone), slightly less indoors. Dropped calls are very rare. Picks up MAJOR interference from the wireless internet network on the campus of William and Mary - zero reception almost all the time, with small pockets of signal.

I thought reception was bad inside my Fraternity house built in the late 1900's, until I moved to VA. It's hard to even make a call inside my house, or even in my back yard. Over near Wal-Mart / Lowes it's not so bad, but it's sad when I get better service in Culpeper than I do in Williamsburg :(
