Verizon has HORRIBLE customer service. Before I left them (oh, and I paid the $175 early terminiation fee - IT WAS WORTH IT!) they'd screwed up 5 of my last 6 bills. Each one took *many* calls to customer service - they'd bounce me around from dept to dept - AFTER I waited up to an hour on the phone.

Plus, they were constantly overcharging me - I'd just get mysteriously signed up for plans, get dropped off other plans, etc. It was a gigantic mess, and more often than not, the people who were supposed to help me figure it out were rude.

The stores were worse - you wait forever to talk to a technician about a problem with the handset, and then they tell you to come back in a day or two. It took me 2 months to get a new phone (I had insurance!) when mine was broken - they kept saying it just needed "the software updated".



Now I'm with TMobile. I def. like that they don't make you wait to talk to someone at customer service. So far, it's better actual cell service (my phone works more places) although I think I probably wouldn't care, just as long as the customer service was decent and my bill was correct.



I've heard good things about Suncom from friends that live in Richmond - I would've gone with them, but they don't have much of a presence here in D.C.
This definitely varies between areas. I've had great luck with Verizon, from buying my phone to customer service. I've been extremely happy with them and would recommend them to anyone.
