Cell phone providers
I have had Verizon for ever..I like the service but I think I want a change. I am considering AT&T and I guess T-Mobile also... What does everyone have and more importantly are you happy with your current cell service?

T-mobile, Gets a ton of bashing from others. But I've had it 9 years now and have never had a problem. BTW, I'm in CNJ.

yeah, my plan is pretty much unlimited usage on everything for only $50.99/ month. Same plan with Verizon would cost me close to $90/ month as of last year when I shopped around. Plus, it's a one year contract, so every year they send me a new phone to stay one more year. ...it took a lot of threatening over the years to get (just about) unlimited everything.

Well i have been a verizon, att&t (cingular), and t-mobile customer. There all pretty much the same.
I am currently with t-mobile (had them for about a year now) and i am very happy with my service. I use the myfaves plan with a blackberry server plan. The prices are really good and the service has gotten a lot better since i had them 4 years ago.

I am currently with Vzw. Had Cingular/AT&T for years (I think they were previously Comcast and CellOne)... I was mostly happy with the service, although coverage at work wasnt all that great. After the AT&T/Cingular merger my coverage at home was non existant, and that was the first time I had to really deal with customer service and it was horrible. They kept blaming the phone and trying to lock me into a new contract. Sigh.
Switched to Vzw almost 3 years ago and coverage is much better for me than Cingular ever was. It was good enough to drop my landline, which I would have never considered with Cingular. Pricing/minutes are similar but no rollover hurts on those months I am jobless and making lots of daytime calls.
Had an ex with Tmobile, and coverage was spotty and call quality was horrible. The phone was a cheap Panasonic, so that may have been most of the problem.
Ultimately you need your phone to make calls. Make sure whatever you get works in the 2 places you spend most of your time (work & home).

I've had verizon for years and the service was good. I had to switch to AT&T last year when I got my iPhone and the reception is not as good (not sure if it's the actual phone or the carrier). But I get service where you would expect, but in spots where it's questionable, I definitely do not while some other people, verizon people mostly, do. Your best bet is to talk to co-workers from the same area.

Do you like your iphone? That is basically why I am asking. I would like to go to an iphone and in order to do that I need to move to AT&T. I could also just go to a blackberry.. I dunno...

Well if you want a blackberry (which in my opinion is so the way to go) all the carriers now have the blackberry 83xx Curve. Also the BB 9000 aka bold is dropping in june for at&t and sept for t-mobile (with the rumored 3g network).
I personally haven't owned a iphone, but i haven't heard a lot of good things. I love my curve especially with the wifi at home/hot spots and edge network through t-mobile.

yeah for me the curve is too big.. If I were to get any blackberry it would be the pearl or that new bold one.
What have you heard about the iphones that is bad? I know they cost a lot but I am ok with that.
