![]() Best Wireless Carrier in AmericaOverall Rating: By: Andrew LeRoy on Friday, November 30, 2007From: Rochester, MN (United States) Experience: 6 Months Pros: - Awesome signal strength - Zero dropped calls - Great customer service - Free incoming calls! - Free incoming text messages! - Reasonable pricesCons: - NoneSummary: I signed up with U.S. Cellular based on a friend's recommendation and I couldn't be more pleased. If you live in the midwest, don't even think of buying a GSM phone (AT&T/T-Mobile). CDMA is king out here but Verizon and Sprint have horrible customer service. U.S. Cellular is the best wireless carrier in America. It's a fact! 25 out of 44 people found this review helpful General ServiceOverall Rating: By: Millie Sifuna on Sunday, November 25, 2007From: Milwaukee, WI (United States) Experience: 7 Months Pros: None so far.Cons: Poor customer care. Customer service not available 24/7Summary: This carrier rips customers off so badly it hurts. It is the only carrier that has segmented regions of service. One is expected to pay the same amount for Mid-Western Region as national service. Now this National service can be a very expensive venture if you visit some states. Try to complain to the poor PR customer reps, the only sentence they have been drilled to say is: " Sorry, we are afraid we cannot give you back your credit even if it is our mistakes" Very frustrating carrier...stay away from U.S Cellular any day anytime. 17 out of 38 people found this review helpful Love 'em!Overall Rating: By: Fred Harrington on Tuesday, November 13, 2007From: Algonquin, IL (United States) Experience: 3 Years Pros: Customer Service Strong ReceptionSummary: They care about me as a customer. They treat me with respect and I can tell they want to keep me as a customer. They also have the best network in Chicago. 22 out of 43 people found this review helpful US Cellular not friendlyOverall Rating: By: Trish Kannegiesser on Monday, November 05, 2007From: Green Bay, WI (United States) Experience: 12 Months Pros: UM THIS COULD TAKE A WHILECons: They are rude. They do not offer any suggestions or explain their products or programs to you. They do not take anytime with you. When i had a problem the service rep was so rude i left crying. They insulted me and I will not go back.Summary: Go to all companies and see how different each one treats you. If they are pleasent its worth it. Sprint is so much better and their customer service is a ten. 24 out of 49 people found this review helpful What A Relief It IsOverall Rating: By: Joyce Hong on Wednesday, October 24, 2007From: Roseburg, OR (United States) Experience: 5 Months Pros: Good family and national Plans, reception, customer service.Cons: Average phonesSummary: After 2 and a half years with one of the big companies, it is such a pleasure to deal with US Cellular. There was no pressure at all in choosing a phone. In fact, when I looked at more expensive ones, the representative encouraged me to look at something less flashy because it met my needs better. I appreciated that. There have been a couple of small errors in billing but they were quick to correct and credit my account. What a change from my old company where they gave me incorrect information,over-charged me $600, argued with me and said they were just too busy to go over the bill with me. Sometimes I have to wait to get help. But there is someone there who welcomes me, takes my name, offers to get water or coffee and just makes me feel valued. The company has even invested in comfortable chairs for customers who have to wait. I love US Cellular. 23 out of 40 people found this review helpful Could be Number 1 but lately Customer Service keeps them back...Overall Rating: By: ES Lanie on Saturday, September 29, 2007From: New Bern, Eastern (United States) Experience: 13 Years Pros: Plan options are ok. Family Plan is so much better. Nationwide Family plan options is fine. Unlimited Free Incoming Calls from any carrier,land line or person and after 7PM Nights and Weekends feature cost around $14.00 which is fair.Cons: Free phs r junk! Don't even last a year before problems. Their promos always force u to sign up for EasyEdge which is junk and a scam! Phone Selection is less than stellar & cost of phs pretty high. They just don't carry the latest & greatest. Summary: Been with them since the bag ph era. Cust Serv was so Good until last 2-3 yrs. The attitude is don't give a darn wheither u talk to National or local offices. Don't know why? Service repair is really good,local cust serv only 2 people in store can do their jobs to cust satisfaction. Hate having to buy a new ph at contract rate because of faulty equip they sell or give as promo. They have ridicules 80% complete contract and u can buy ph at renewal discount. But billing errors seem to be the norm now. Easy Edge is scam...take it for 90 day trial, employee put start & end dates so we could have rebate. It was to automatically cancel per their Cust Serv rep. Well it didn't, someone removed the end date. One day in cking bill, found the overcharge 4 months later ... won't credit back. And got two different excuses on how acct was changed. EASYEDGE is rip off and is always tagged to their promos. I'm tired of hassling over phs not working, billing errors or if I go in store to pay my bill...I hear other peoples business with them. Their CS reps are rude and loud. I don't want to hear them tell their cust ur late, ph cancel, or other situations. I refuse to go in the stores and watch. Just a month ago I went to pick up ph for friend... watch the samething happening and another complaining about Easy Edge billing... so somethings never improve. My DH doesn't want us to renew because of hassles we have experienced. So will move 3 phs in next few mos to new carrier and then we'll cancel his contract and pay the $150 fee to move it. Alltel or ATT here we come. It's sad to change vendors but what's a customer to do? 22 out of 45 people found this review helpful Wouldn't change carriersOverall Rating: By: Cliff Phillips on Saturday, September 15, 2007From: Cuba, IL (United States) Experience: 5 Years Pros: Good service and plansCons: NoneSummary: We've had US Cellular for several years and added our kids phones on the family plan just last year. Free nights (after 7 p.m.) and weekends are great. Plus, they just turned on a new tower about six blocks from our home and service on calls is incredible. 23 out of 48 people found this review helpful good serviceOverall Rating: By: Chad Whiteside on Monday, August 27, 2007From: Madison, WI (United States) Experience: 18 Months Pros: Have had US Cellular for a little over a year.

No frills, just phone service. I don't use my phone for playing games or music or internet. I only wanted a phone to start with and this is what I pay for.
