Your Cell Phone Carrier

[PhilDernerJr]

What cell phone service do you guys have?

I have T-Mobile, which I really enjoy. I get unlimited text messaging, 600 anytime and free nights and weekends for a total of about $63 a month after taxes.

May will be the one year mark for me, and then I'm getting a phone upgrade.

Also, help me convince Art to stop using NExtel or to keep his phone on more. :lol:

I've got Sprint. I've noticed they've gotten a lot better in the city over the last 5 years, plus I like their service plan.

Their nationwide service is one of the best, with a lot of coverage. Being in the military, right now in Colorado, the people I call often have cell phone area codes from their respective areas (for example I kept my 646 area code even though the local AC here is 719). I also end up having to call people all over the country and it's a lot easier to have a good service plan and carrier. Sprint has worked real well for me. I would recommend them to anyone, especially those who travel frequently.

Phil, I think I have exactly the same T-Mobile plan as you. Wow, we're like blood brothers or something.

I have Verizon all the way!!!

[Steven Holzinger]

Verizon Wireless. My plan has 400 peak minutes, unlimited nights/weekends, unlimited IN calling (can call any other Verizon Wireless person and not have the minutes charged against the peak minutes), and 1,000 text messages. I couldn't tell you what the bill runs, since a couple months ago I upgraded the text messages and the last month I went over on peak minutes. That's a $78 phone bill I got to pay by the end of the month.

I don't necessarily lose calls, but when I do, its usually because of the person on the other end. I have lost calls from entering tunnels, particularly the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel's two tunnels and the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel.

I have Nextel, but unless they complete this Sprint deal really soon and improve service and phone selection, I'm going to buy out my contract because I really hate them.

Verizon is the only way to go.

I had AT&T for about 4 years, but it suddenly became Cingular (well, after their merger). Same service though. 200+ anytime minutes, unlimited nights & weekends, free long distance. With a corporate discount, it's $35 (tax included) per month.

Verizon Wireless, ex-T-Mobile customer.

nextel, and absolutely love it. i don't know what so many people have against them, but i don't know how i could live without it. then again, i have a corporate plan so maybe it's a little better for me. i even get service in the subways sometimes. i've had conversations on the two-way while on the platform in grand central station.

oh yea, just about everyone at my job uses nextel so it's easy to communicate with them all.

T-mobile.... I hate it, I never have service!

[T-Bird76]

I have Verizon, had them for the past eight years, can't complain. They do call me all the time wanting me to up my plan however.

T-mobile.... I hate it, I never have service!

I realy think it depends on the phone. I have T-Mobile and I had AWESOME service with the cheap phone that came with my plan.

Then I "upgraded" and now my reception isn't all that great.
