ivelina,

You really need to check how the service is for your particular area. Here in Northern California, at least in the South Bay, AT&T is a lot better than T-Mobile. This sounds like the opposite of what many other posters are saying. The area you're in makes all the difference.

there's no such thing.. depends on where you are
Very true.

The one service I have maintained for the past 6 years has been SprintPCS, contrary to some of the posts above, my experience has been excellent.

It really does depend on where you are. My wife works all over the country and carries a Verizon phone. She is always bitching about dropped calls if she is outside a large metro area. I have Alltel and am very happy with it. In our home area she has to use my phone for any important calls because she knows the call will be dropped every couple of miles on hers.

My experience with Sprint was TERRIBLE.

I have Verizon now and think it's awesome.
