NO service in this area. Spotty 1-2 bar areas... not enough to make a call that won't be dropped. Very poor. I have to drive at least 25 miles to get good signal.
I can't use my phone in the house at all and I live in the middle of the city. I was much happier with Cingular, but I don't know how it's changed since they were bought, all I know is Altell has been a major disappointment.
In Feb. 2007 I could get no signal (or a very weak analog signal) anywhere in the park. In Feb of 2006 I could get a signal (2-3 bars) near Panther Junction and at the overlook at the south end of the Old Ore Road.
Sam's Club has been a dead spot for years. I've had Alltel, Cingular and now Verizon and I had to go to the front door to make a call. Even the little booth that sells cell phones had to be moved to the front of the store to enable activation of new phones. Sam's Club = metal building = no RF penetration.
Zero reception at his intersection in all directions. Given that is is quite possibly the major intersection in Amarillo, you would think that Western Wireless (soon to be AllTel) would provide coverage here. I assure you, as a Western Wireless (AllTel) subscriber, this intersection and 8 blocks in every direction radiating from this spot are DEAD (no bars of reception) as a door nail!
I was recently switched from AT&T to Altell by no choice of my own. Since then my phone service has been lousy to say the least. I drive from Gunter to Frisco. I have ZERO bars for 20 miles of my 34 mile drive. When I had AT&T I had 2-3 bars during my drive. I am currently looking for a new company. Customer service with Altell is very, very poor.
