My experience:
I originally signed up with Cingular wireless which was bought by Bellsouth.
AT&T then obtained Cingular through the Bellsouth merger. I have had no service issues from the
beginning. While they do offer additional services like internet, data and text messaging, I do
not use those services. Voice quality is generally good. I used to get some chopping
as if there is packet loss on the network. I have not had this problem since AT&T took over. I suspect they
have upgraded their network to handle the load. Sometimes a call will drop if I am in a bad location such
as inside a mall or go through a tunnel. I don't believe any service can give reliable
coverage in those locations. Overall the service is good and reliable.
AT&T/ATT Wireless Mobile Phone Service Pros:
- Good service coverage area
- Free in network mobile to mobile calling
- AT&T gives discounts when bundled with other services
- Good voice quality
AT&T/ATT Wireless Cell Phone Service Cons:
- Too expensive
- Charges extra for data services
AT&T/ATT Wireless Mobile Phone Service Spot Rating:
I would give them 5 spots, but I feel that the pricing is still too high.
I want to see sub $30.00 for this amount of minutes. I also want free data and text.
Am I dreaming? Maybe, we will see what the future holds - especially as the economy tumbles.
