Balian Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 Well after getting screwed from Sprint with my newly aquired 850 dollar phone bill, and my susposed 4 new phones, I am switching to a different provider. Does anyone have Nextel? If so, how are the services? Any problems or concerns? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akula Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 Nextel rules but costs $$. Verizon has really good coverage but their phones as of late kinda suck. I have Tmo cause I have 5 lines and it costs $110 per month for all 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
302Powered Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 I have Nextel and have had no problems yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FBody Addict Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 the only nextel problem that i know of is the cost, but the two way service is great, although it can get annoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SquirrelyNutsDSP Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 Pony up and get the Nextel. Verizon phones suck (I have one) and for some reason my phone number is no longer local to my residence? So I'm kinda pissed at them and the next contract I get will be Nextel.

Guest Bottlefed70 Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 Yeah nextels are pretty good. In the polls on the news Verizon was first(which is what I have and I've had the best service) then Nextel in second. Then like At&T Cingular then Sprint. I just know that Verizon and Nextel are the best. So enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weirdbeard551647545504 Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 I haven't had any problems with my Nextel. 2way is great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ansonivan Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 The call service in columbus is decent but if you travel a lot you may want to consider a different company. I constantly drop calls when in cincinnati, dayton... hell anywhere outside of columbus realy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balian Posted September 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 Alright..Flame me if you will. I went with Cingular. I went to the Nextel Store there in Easton, and the guy that was there when I was didn't really seem to care about the phones, the plans, or anything. So I got a bad impression. Went to Cingular and got a good camera phone and walked out happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 welp, im a t-mobile rep, so i can tell you damn near anything about them. about just about any other carrier as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ponyfreak Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 ok I'll take you up on that offer. First question DJ. Why does T mobiles coverage suck balls? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 because you live in the fucking boonies, you clod kicking hillbilly. i dont really think anyone expects to have service in a cave either, so youve got 2 things working against you. t-mobile covers 92% of americas population. just so happens they dont include trolls. if you have any other questions, joe, feel free to catch me on aim.

Guest 01 WS6 Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 Nextel is great, I have had one for 5 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS69 Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 Verizon Wireless is the way to go... Best coverage, best network, best equipment period.. I am testing a new Motorola that supports both CDMA & GSM that rocks, wait until December when EVDO is released. EVDO is much faster than Road Runner/DSL and is totally wireless. [ 17.

1TrueSS Posted September 18, 2004 Report Share Posted September 18, 2004 Get Nextel if your friends have it. That is the only way I think it is worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
