Verizon coverage is unbelievable

[Heavy Fluid]

I have to say, I am so impressed with the coverage here. We were on Verizon before, but my wife was really wanting an iPhone 4, so we jumped ship to AT&T when it came out. The service was horrendous really. I relied a lot on wifi to do almost everything on my 9700. Now that Verizon has the 4, we made the move back.

The difference is just night and day. Full service everywhere. No dropped calls. No issues. It's almost too perfect. We couldn't be happier that we made the switch back.

Your wife would be happier with a BlackBerry phone.

I have no complaints service wise since I have had Verizon.

We in the BlackBerry forum could care less about the life and times of iPhone zombies

Or it could be you are trolling?

If it sounds like a troll, it usually is a troll. She has had a few different BlackBerry phones, but they didn't entirely fit her needs.

But this is a Verizon forum and the topic was about Verizons coverage. It had nothing to do with phones, she could have had a Cosmos that fit her needs better than a BlackBerry and it wouldn't have mattered.

My husband has the Cosmos phone. He like it. But, yeah, VZW coverage is the best I've tried! Nationwide too.

Personally I'd ignore the troll-like commets and not feed it.

Verizon does have the widest coverage within the US. However I have read several articles that report AT&T as being the FASTEST (when you can connect, of course - hehe) carrier for downloading. Here's a couple of links.

Now, I do NOT want to start carrier wars in here. I am simply pointing out that different carriers have different qualities. If carrier "A" gives good coverage and good download speeds where you live, work and generally go and it has the phones you want, why change? On the other hand if carrier, errr, "V" fulfills those need better FOR YOU then that's the place to be.

Should I have chosen different letters to designate my example carrier comparison. I don't think so .

I completely agree that the service/coverage is the best of all the service providers. There's no comparison. I continue to find 3G service in the most remote out of the way places imaginable. Love the coverage and the piece of mind that comes with that added security when out in the boonies.

This is CrackBerry.com right? Or is this iPhoneBerry.com?

Is that a new term iPhoneBerry? An iPhone user in a BlackBerry website

Reported before my big mouth gets me in trouble.

Let me just clear a few things up here.
1. I use a BlackBerry. I haven't always, but I do now, and I will continue to until the day I die, or they quit making them.
2. My wife uses an iPhone. She has used in the past a 8330, 9550 and a 9630. She prefers the iPhone for her needs.
3. This thread really has absolutely nothing to do with what devices we are using, but instead the coverage and service that Verizon offers.
4. Trolling is so overrated.
5. Mods can close this thread, as it really is going nowhere.

I manage the sales division of a heavy haul transportation company. We've tried several different service providers and without a doubt, Verizon offers us the best coverage of any wireless provider. Each of our trucks is a VRZ wifi hotspot in order for us to communicate, dispatch, and print documents in our trucks, and our drivers also carry company issued VRZ phones.

Our sales reps each have a BlackBerry smartphone, a VRZ wifi hotspot card, and a Playbook. I'm sure we could likely save some money with another provider, but our business depends upon coverage in some fairly remote areas and Verizon is by far the best for us.

I do wish they were a little less arrogant, as they are difficult to deal with when it comes time to negotiate our contract. While we're not a massive account, the money we spend for Verizon is a lot of money for us.

In past jobs I've used Sprint, T-Mobile, and AT&T and while I am a Sprint fan also and my wife and kids carry Sprint phones, you simply cannot beat the coverage and reliability of Verizon for business applications.
