Pros: My company is very good. I have 1000 any time minutes and free incomming minutes. If I have a problem they are always there to help.

Summary: This company is very good and they always have some very good deals going. I got 1000 any time minutes and free incomming minutes. That is a good deal to me.

I'm Satisfied with my Service and Carrier

Overall Rating:
4 out of 5
By: Debbie Kighlinger on Saturday, September 30, 2006
From: Marlow, OK (United States)
Experience: 5 Years
Pros: Consistant. I only have 1 very small (about 1/2 mile area) that I get any dropped calls. I am aware of the problem area and work around it. This carrier's plan is up front and plainly written. No hidden small print.

Cons: Don't really have any problems.

Summary: For good service and no hidden small print in the contract, think about checking out US Cellular.

Happy with US Cellular

Overall Rating:
5 out of 5
By: Darlene Boone on Saturday, September 30, 2006
From: Aulander, NC (United States)
Experience: 11 Years
Pros: Good company that is customer friendly and service oriented.

Cons: Wish they had a larger service area and didn't have to depend on other carriers. You can really tell a difference when you leave their service area in terms of dropped calls and the clarity of calls, (sometimes have bad connections and echos when using other carriers but not with US Cellular.)

Summary: Have used US Cellular for 11 years and they are a great company. No problems with service or their service people. They have few dropped calls and great service plans. I think their rates are reasonable also. I will continue to use them.

From: Waukesha, WI (United States)
Experience: 5 Years
Pros: U.S.Cellular has always been helpful. I have never droped a call. I have never not had service. I would not switch from U.S. Cellular.

Summary: They are the best carrier out there. I have heard about other carriers having less droped calls than anyone else but I have never had a droped call with U.S. Cellular.

Pros: good coverage, fair prices

US goes all the way!

Overall Rating:
5 out of 5
By: K Crowl on Monday, September 18, 2006
From: Elgin, IL (United States)
Experience: 6 Months
Pros: I use US Cell way up in WI, even used it in an unincorporated farmland area up there. I have always gotten reception. I have tried Cingular and Nextel with no luck.

Cons: Only flaw I have experienced is once in awhile during use of text messages, I lose service!!?

Summary: I have tried three cell phone services and besides plan costs, I extremely love US Cell. I get reception everywhere, and need it during my trips to WI- in the middle on nowhere- especially having two little kids.

US Cellular.....maybe NOT the way to go

Overall Rating:
2 out of 5
By: Betty Hesseltine on Wednesday, September 06, 2006
From: Des Moines, IA (United States)
Experience: 2 Years
Pros: Pros...well 2 years ago when we first went with US Cellular, reception etc was fantastic. I was able to talk perfect to hubby at work whether he was on first or second floor of building or out in the warehouse they have.

Cons: NOW...he cuts out, calls are dropped, he doesnt even have a record that I called (missed call etc) at times. We are becoming very unhappy. A friend also has the same carrier and she had no probs 2 years ago and also now when we chat and she is at home, I can barely make out what she is saying do to cutting out every other word.

Summary: I am not sure that US Cellular is caring about their customers anymore. Also, when I changed phones (and both were kyocera brand phones) - I was unable to transfer all my music sounds etc that I had paid for, what a waste.
