    Default Which cell phone company?

    I've been with Verizon Wireless for four years and haven't had a problem. Well the time has came that I get out from under my parents' contract and get my fiance and I a contract of our own.

    I like Verizon Wireless, but they are just a little high a month with my current budget.

    So I've been shopping around with the other various companies.

    Who do you have? What is your opinion on the customer service you have been given?

    cingular. i've been with them for 5 years no major problems, and my bill wasn't bad....when i had one(gotta love a job that gives free cell phone service). the only bad thing about cingular is they seem to be a little behind on the features and cool phones, but they have been catching up lately. and cingular uses GSM/sim card technology vs. version using CMDA which doesn't work outside the U.S.

    verizon is the best phone company in my eyes. sprint sucks major ass. i have had[and still have] sprint for 4 years now[in parents contract, so im not trying to get out on my own]. i have the nationwide coverage plan, but will be analog/digital ROAMING[with roaming fees] ALL the time, randomly. whether it be at my house, in a big city, wal-mart, or even the sprint store[WTF!!!!????], roaming happens alot. dont get sprint, my advice to u.

    dont get me wrong, sprint has the best plans, but the service is two thumbs down.

    cingular. I have been with them for 1 year and it has been great. I get service in alot of areas others dont. I got service in california where verison didnt. And roll over minutes...duh. I have over 2k extra in roll over minutes. Also, my mom and brother just switched from verizon to cingular. Highly reccomend them.

    Verizon has the best coverage, but I want a contract for the two of us. Just looks like I may have to stick with parents contract for a little while and get a one yr contract for fiance. Just pay my parents my part of the cell phone bill so I'm not bumming off of them and get a new contract with fiance when hers runs out.

    i had verizon for almost 5 years. their customer service is the best. i have sprint now mainly because i work for them and it is free. they have the best phone with the best features and definatley the best plans. they also have the EVDO(that verizon has also) that it is faster than any wireless card out there.
    sprint service has been expanding more and more. i get service pretty much anywhere i go. plus there are no roaming fees anymore!

    my 2 cents

    The only good thing about sprint, is that if im roaming and make a call, I don't get charged for it. Also their fair & flexible plan is nice.

    I've been with Verizon for 6 years and I like them. My phone picks up in a lot of places most people's phones won't pick up. Jesse has Sprint and they always fuck up his bill. He said he could call to have something cancelled and they might change his entire bill. They can't ever get shit right. The only thing I like about Sprint is that they have unlimited texting
    THAT'S MY JAM!

    I'm gettin' more for less with my MetroPCS.

    Good for around metro atlanta. But if you do leave the state no service. But I got a nextel/sprint as well.

    But Customer Service Suxs on Metro. But you get what you pay for!

    Verizon is awesome in my opinion, a few weeks ago I was having trouble loading songs onto my phone and I found out I had the wrong software loaded. I had to go back to older software for the mp3's to work with my phone, Verizon couldn't fix it, so they replaced my phone for free with a brand new one. It was pretty nice because my other phone was almost a year old. So I'd go Verizon.

    i've got sprint...never really had a problem with them...except with their shitty pricing on international roaming.

    sprints coverage used to be pretty bad but now they include free roaming on verizon, us cellular and alltel towers (and can data roam on alltel towers) so it's muuch better

    good thing is sprint is really cheap

    definitely stick with verizon. I work there

    but really, I had to research all the other cell phone companies (cingular, t-mobile, sprint, nextel, boost, mobile pcs) and just comparing the maps and features, verizon is the best. The coverage area for VZW is basically all of US except desert areas and high mountains. There's no roaming, no long distance, unlimited nights/weekends, unlimited verizon to verizon.....

    stay verizon
