I'm living in san diego and i currently have Verizon. I love the service and the coverage... but i can get a lot more for my money with Cingular. I'm looking at around $60/month + nights at 7PM. What do you recommend for san diego? Do you know of any good deals for rate plans?

Edit: i know that cingular has better phones.. but i don't really care about that. I'm perfectly happy with my A670 with Verizon.

I have cingular and havn't had a dropped call yet. There are some nice deals online going on for cingular depending on which phone you want. Rate plans are pretty standard all down the board.

Coverage is good, if you get more minutes for your money...Id say swtich.

Thanks for the reply... so, cingular has really improved their coverage?

The extra minutes each month would save me a lot of money.

Yea, I had AT&T before cingular I thought their coverage was alright to begin with the merge just made it better for me. Remember, you have 30 days to try it out too. Rate plans are rate plans though...not really going to get a "deal" on them except for what is advertised already. That is unless you try to have them give you a retention plan which you might want to try to do with verizon. No dice for new customers though.

You might check out amazon, I know you said you don't care about the phones, but amazon has phones where they pay you upwards of $200 which would pay for 3 months of service.

Cingular's customer service is flat-out awful. I can't say enough bad things about them. If you have more time than money to spend, go for it.

I have Cingular (well AT&T Wireless) in San Diego and I don't ever have problems. But I'm mainly only by UCSD, so I'm not sure how it is in other places. I imagine it'd be just as good if not better
