| How do they make any money? The last 4 times I moved they don't service
that area. Not available at this zip code, etc, etc. They are all around
here but not my zip codes? Unicel is here, US cellular is here, T-mobile
is here, Sprint is here, At&t is here and others. What's up with Verizon?

If you expect help for you and this is not just a complaint - providing
your ZIP code would help so people could look into why service is not
available for your.

Which areas?

There are certain areas that they don't serve. There are certain areas
that each carrier doesn't serve. They're not in a couple states in the
Southwest (Arkansas and Oklahoma) and they have pockets of no coverage
in smaller rural areas. They're in all of the larger cities.

Oklahoma, definitely. I guess maybe not Arkansas, now that I'm actually
looking at a US map...

Actually their phone works in the areas they don't serve. I'm thinking
it's a territory agreement with other providers. I know before I moved
to my current area my phone worked fine from where I bought the plan.
But you can't buy it here yet it works just fine. It was a good excuse
to cancel the contract though.

OK, I meant no *native* coverage.
The point was, it's pointless complaining about carriers not having true
nationwide native coverage because no US carrier *does.* You'll be
roaming in certain parts of the country no matter who you choose.
Where you roam varies by carrier.

| Verizon Wireless now has coverage in Tulsa Oklahoma. With expanding
coverage to Northwest Arkansas, in the last quarter of 2007. Oklahoma City
will begin coverage 3rd or 4th quarter of 2008.

I'm not surprised that Tulsa comes in first. Strange but true, the four
tallest buildings in Oklahoma are in Tulsa!
