cell phone providers
Whats everyones opinions on the best cell providers. Best pricing,best coverage, pros,cons etc. Personally, I have been with cingular(att) since I had my first big big "suitcase bag phone" Service and coverage have always been pretty good until the 3g came along. Ive had more dropped calls and problems since this new high-tech 3g service has gotten here. Just kinda wondering if theres anything better before I hafta sign another 2 year contract.

We must have more dead spots over here or something. I thought maybe it was just my phone,but both my brother and brother in-law have different phones and they have quite a few dropped calls just like me.

Sprint sucks so bad I can't even tell you. You have to be in a town somewhere for it to work. I hated them. I switched to AT&T and I am so much happier. With Sprint, I couldn't use my phone at my lease, or Kisatchie where I hunt, or red river where I hunt. AT&T works in all those places now.

I have a Blackberry with Nextel and it's not often that I don't have a good signal. I have the unlimited everything plan and only pay like $120 a month. My wife has AT&T and has nothing but problems with their phones and service, as do 2 of the guys I work with.

I have ATT and i always have dropped calls. If it werent fo rme working offshore i wouldnt have AT&T, I would have Centennial. My phone bill was decent and I always had servive except in the gulf. With AT&T i always loose signal, i sometimes gotta restart my phone to get signal, and I always get dropped calls. Its Obamas fault....

I find they are worse now that NObama is in office. Someone said that its because that NObama uses AT&T, and when he gets on the phone, AT&T shuts the system down for security reasons.. I dont know how much I beleive that tho.

We have Sprint. I had Centennial until Rita. When I was working in Cameron after the hurricane, I could 't get a signal unless I was in downtown Cameron.
With Sprint, I can get a signal in all of lower Cameron Parish, even in Holly Beach, where no other companies have any signal. In Holly Beach, you are on an offshore tower, at $4/minute. Centennial was a great company for monthly cost. It was the cheapest we could find. We don't have any fancy phones. But their customer service sux so bad in the Lake Charles area. If I had a problem, I went to the store and they wanted to charge me for anything I needed fixing. If I wanted to change something, they wanted me to sign a contract to add another 2 years to my service. I would call their customer service in Arizona and get what I wanted for no charge. I will not deal with them ever again. So far, with Sprint, I don't have any issues with customer service. I deal with a small Sprint dealer on Prien Lake Rd. and the girl who works in that store is from Cameron. Us Cameron folks get along good. She is very helpful to me and my wife.
