I have them now and I am very happy.The worst? Obviously you’ve not encountered AT&T. Even worse than Comcast.

10 years ago, I had a problem with my Verizon land-line.Verizon didn't show up till Tuesday to fix it.
They left all of the landline customers on that cable without service on Friday. Saturday. Sunday. Monday. And part of Tuesday.
Doesn't seem acceptable to me.
Most people complain on Internet forums or Facebook . Always remember , everybody answers to somebody . You just have to work the system to get results .I guess you just have to know who to complain to.
I'm pretty sure that route (250?) takes you through the National Radio Quiet Zone. No kidding. You're even supposed to turn off CB radios!Personally, we've had VZW for ~20 years and the only time we encountered signal issues was when crossing the Appalachians between WV and VA.
Network coverage is good. God help you if you have a problem and need to speak to an actual person. I have had to spend HOURS on the phone trying to resolve problems.Dunno.... I'm only referring to their network coverage.

10 years ago, I had a problem with my Verizon land-line.
I filed a work report on their web-site and it showed they would be out in (7) days to fix it.
I then filed a complaint with the New York State Public Utilities Commision.
The 'next' morning, Verizon was out to fix it.
Later that afternoon, a Verizon employee called me to ask if it was fixed, and to call him if I ever have a problem again.
I guess you just have to know who to complain to.
As a recruiter for a mid size company that hires blue collar workers I can all but guarantee that this is because Verizon does not have enough employees to go out and fix things like this. It is the new reality and we just have to accept it.
I don't want to jinx myself and it's also been a while since I've had to call them but when I have in the past, their customer service was beyond excellent !Network coverage is good.

No idea what "route 250" is. The lack of coverage was simply because it was mountains. Maybe it's because no one was allowed to build towers due to this zone too though. No idea....I'm pretty sure that route (250?) takes you through the National Radio Quiet Zone
Exactly. It includes the Green Bank Radio Telescope location.No idea what "route 250" is. The lack of coverage was simply because it was mountains. Maybe it's because no one was allowed to build towers due to this zone too though. No idea....
Had me curious so I had to look up that area but it's not on the way we go between SW Ohio and Myrtle BeachExactly. It includes the Green Bank Radio Telescope location.
It depends on your area.Some years ago, ATT was very spotty in the DC metro area so I had Verizon which worked very well. When I moved to WV, ATT was the only one to have. I've had ATT service thru Straight talk(it depends on your zip code) and it has worked well here and traveling all over the country. You might check T-Mobile/Sprint as they have really expanded their service area. They have 5G here in WV. Nobody else does.with the recent purchase of TracFone by Verizon, I have gotten an email to switch my AT&T network iPhone over to the Verizon network for use with my TracFone account...I've had very little difference going from an AT&T account to TracFone using the AT&T network but there are some minor coverage issues when using the AT&T network (just as there was when using the AT&T network with my AT&T account)...
does anyone see a downside with going with the new SIM card from TracFone and switching my service from the AT&T network to the Verizon network???...I have already confirmed that my iPhone SE (2) is compatible and I have a couple friends who use different phones on the Verizon network in the ChicagoLand area with no admitted issues but I'd like to ask here as well...
from the research I've done thus far, supposedly Verizon is better than AT&T for 4G and that is what my phone is capable of currently...for future, I've read that Verizon is catching up to AT&T for 5G or whatever form is above 4G but that shouldn't really matter to me for the foreseeable future...
Thanks for any information you care to share...Lastly, TracFone tells me that the change will come whether I make the decision or not but not until near the end of 2023...

Yes you have to get pretty far from Green Bank to get a signal. Depending on your location to the antennas, you can't even have wifi in your house.Exactly. It includes the Green Bank Radio Telescope location.
Having signal is one thing, Network performance shouldn’t be sacrificed because a customer is on prepaid. If they don’t want to provide equal service don’t offer prepaid.Dunno.... I'm only referring to their network coverage.
