AT&T
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.

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.

I have Verizon and am on an extended network all the time here in Lynchburg. I will be lucky to get 1 bar at my house and if I go to the basement it dies all together. This is really bad as my phone battery is constantly needing to be charged because it spends all its time connecting and / or searching for service. Grrrr. Time to switch.

Unbelievable - after 5 years of camping at Natural Bridge station, we AT&T Wireless turned Cingular Wirelless turned AT&T Wireless (again) customers STILL do not have any reception at Yogi Bear's Jellystone Parkā¢ at Natural Bridge... but our Verizon friends have 3-5 bars of signal at the same location during that whole 5 years. After spending 45 minutes on the phone with a very nice AT&T rep, I was able to log a complaint. But I need enough people to do the same thing before AT&T realizes they need to lease service fromthe tower that serves that area!

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.

Rt 460 between Appomattox and Lynchburg are pretty good with Cingular / AT&T. Once off of 460 and down Rt 608 (Stonewall Rd - Concord area) which I often travel, reception decreases. Best on high, clear ground. No reception in low spots or in the trees. Not sure where the closest tower is but may be at the top of Oxford Furnace.
