Anyone have any experience with Cingular and Sprint?

What phones are the best far as performance. I have noticed Moto's drop signal and calls the most. But they have the most features.
 

I use Cingular. good coverage here, never had a problem with the plan or service.
Yes on the Moto`s
I have sent several Moto`s back to the Service center in Tx for repair/replacement under warn-ty.
The V-400, it has a lot of nice features, but the dam things are buggie.
The best phone I have used to date is a Siemens Model A-56
Good phone, not a lot of features, but it works, every time, better Batt life than the Moto, very dependable.

Had Cellone for 15 years then switchd because they didnt have any phones I liked...After that I went to Sprint..Decent coverage but not as good as I needed for my work & hobby..Mostly coverd major hyways & large towns...Im now with Altell & love it...Great coverage,great phones,great coustomer service,& you can change your plan any time you want..
 
How about experience with three different services.. :LOL: :LOL:

My family phone package is with Verizon (3 phones,Nokias...teenager proof 8) :LOL: :LOL: ) Good service but still has drop zones..

Moms business phone is Cingular (the old AT&T :) ) great service but limited coverage traveling thru states :shock: ..

And the last one is Nextel in the "Big Office",company wide with Moto's (tempermental "Buggas" ;) ) Phone side works great but the two-way has more drop zones around our small town job sites :twisted: :shock: ;) ...

Snoope back quiet

p.s. who needs phones when you're running fully "Legal Magnum powa" :LOL: ;) :LOL:
 
I have Verizon right now and seem to like it....Service is good and the coverage is the best of any that I have had but they still have drop zones.
 
I used cingular they were poor outfit in my town if i had 2 phones both with full signal and live 5blocks for nearest tower and i called one phone using the other phone nothing would happen phone wouldnt ring it would just go to voice mail or sometime it wouldnt even do that so i cancled the contrct and tookit up with better buisness department they couldnt fix the problem so i stioped the contact and didnt hav eto pay early termination fee so i switch to nextel and have neverbeen happier with my cell phone since i switched phone providers
 
Another vote for Cingular here, I do a lot of roaming in the big rig and they seem to be the best I have used so far....My company phone is a Nextel they are getting better and the 2 way feature is nice, but the coverage while roaming is still not quite what it should be....73 Mike :D
