Um, considering I live 45 minutes away from Sprint national headquarters I think I'll stay with them. The service is awesome.

I'll be getting a T-Mobile phone this week probably, I HATE my sprint phone, it drops more calls than any phone I've ever seen. It's my second one too :mad: My friend just went through THREE phones before he got a working one with Sprint as well so I'm a little biased against that trash. AT&T is nice but I hate nokia phones (ugly, everyone has them) and the nationwide plans are expensive. Also, with T-Mobile I can talk to my girlfriend for free which is REALLY nice :D

I was with T-mobile and I didn't like it after a while so I'm done with them. They were sending me messages on my phone saying my bill was due or past due when it was paid.

If I go with another cell phone service it'll be Alltel possibly.

I like my verizon service. They have really good coverage around my area, nice prices and excellent customer service. Also they're adding the walkie talkie push to talk thing that Nokia has, which will be extra sweet.

I had sprint and cingular before also. Cingular service sucked big time, and pretty much sprint is the devil. nuff said.

Cingular is my other choice...I cant decide between them and T-Mobile, I could get rollover minutes with Cingular but with T-Mobile it's free for my girlfriend to talk to me and it's free for me to talk to her...Also, their customer service seems to be good in the Dallas area but their stores/kiosks suck, good luck finding an english speaking sales representative.

T-mobile, highest churn rate? HAAHHA.

I think that honor goes to Cingular and Verizon, then AT&T

Nextel > *

Nextel has the lowest churn rate of all! btu the service is crappy though... I hate calling people that have Nextel.

it's always says "please hold while the Nextel customer is located" adn then it doesn't do anything!!!

I am biased with AT&T Wireless, only cuz I work for them but they are not the best.. not the worst either though... but we are getting better...there are many things in works...

I dig Verizon. They're the biggest for a reason.

They used to really suck, but have really tried hard to address all the issues that were problematic. I have to say, they have been really good to me for the past 2 years (and I've been a customer for 6, back when they were Airtouch).

My roommates have all had sprint and had great service, it really seems to just be my model of phone. However, I still am VERY displeased because they did not agree with me that it was the model of phone and when I got a new one, they would give me nothing but the same. Not even a lower model :( Because of their unwillingness to help me with a useable phone...I will be PROMPTLY ending my contract with those dirty little ****ers in 3 days.
