AT&T
Cingular constantly drops the signal. Phone calls are horrible as I cannot hear the other party half the time and vice versa.

Inside house 1 to 2 bars and poor to no reception. Outside house recwption improves to 2 - 3 bars but still not acceptable. House is less than 1 / 2 mile from Cincular tower. Am former very satisified AT and T subscriber that opted to join Cingular rather than endure AllTel. I'm beginning to think Cingular was a mistake.l

Reception inside buildings in Edmond is gone for this phone now. It was very good until a couple of weeks ago, and Cingular offers no explanation for the change when we called to get help. With 3 other cell phones in the household, 2 of which still get great reception in the area, and one of which now gets no reception in Edmond anymore, we have come up with our own explanation. The only phones that still get acceptable service operate on the GSM 850 frequency. Cingular customer service wouldn't talk to me about this specifically... I have no idea why. I just would like to know if this is a temporary situation or if we need to find alternate service or cell phones.

Cingular coverage in North Oklahoma City and particularly in Edmond,ok is extremely poor.

Service was very poor after the merge with ATT wireless and Alltel and I was going to pay the 175 early disconnect fee until I switched to ALLTEL's CDMA network. Ever since the change over service has been great, I am always in remote areas of Oklahoma and there are very few dead spots. I want everyone that has an ATT phone to go into your nearest Alltel store and swicth your phone and get over this headache. GO RYAN NEWMAN!

I had good service with AT&T. Since this big "switch" to Cingular then to Alltel I have had nothing but trouble. I get dropped calls, even though I have good bars on my phone my friends and family can not hear me or I sound garbled. Customer service sucks with Alltel and I have only gotten 4 mailings from them. 3 bills and a "Welcome" letter I got 3 months after I found out I had been sold. I was trying to pay a bill by calling 611 and could not get through, so I went into a Alltel location to pay the bill... they could not find me in the system. Turns out I still have to sign up with Alltel before December 31, 2005 or my phone stops working and I get charged $175.00 early termination fee (Like it was my choice to leave AT&T). Anyway back to my bill, how did I pay it... I had to call an 800 number which got me to Cingular, from there I had to send in my check made out to AT&T to Cingular to pay my Alltel bill. Is this messed up or what? At different times when I have called into Alltel, the customer service reps have been very rude. I even had one snotty little twit snidly tell me "and whose fault is that, who had been using your phone". I hate Alltel and am planning to sign up with Alltel, then drop them (since I saw on TV that they will not charge the $175.00 to any AT&T customer that wants to leave) and get a new cell company. Alltel sucks! My advise to anyone looking for a cell phone company... Look else where!

I travel frequently inside Oklahoma and Alltel sucks. It is nowhere nearly as good as the old AT&T TDMA service back in the day. I get dropped calls or calls so static filled you can't hear the person you're speaking with. Before you say it's the phone, I have tried the Motorola V710, terrible, the Nokia CDMA candy bar style phone they no longer offer, it was an improvement at the expense of battery life over the V710. The Nokia 6255i sucks as well. Get some new phones Alltel. I do use NMO mount external antennas and 3 watt repeaters and direct connect cellular amplifiers in my vehicles as well, but nothing will help this service. I don't know where to look, I've tried t-mobile, Sprint, US Cellular, Cingular, and now Alltel, none of them are very reliable outside major metropolitan areas, and some of them aren't inside metro areas. Bring back the old AT&T!

Phone is great around town. Terrible on major highways.

Alltel is a breath of fresh air to the Oklahoma City market. After the confusion fueled by the ATTWS / Cingular merger, it is about time for a solid company to come in and offer relief to a wireless customer base that has so long been ignored. I highly recommend Alltel wireless. you may have not heard of them, but they've been around a long time. Check there website and tell your boss, it's time to switch.
