osu/columbus, verizon vs. cingular

eastcoastarch03

i'm currently with cingular, but my contract ends in october. i live in maryland and the service is decent. i hate my shitty razor phone and i dislike motorola phones all together. i prefer nokias, which i know verizon has.

i'm moving to columbus this fall to pursue my bachelor of science in architecture at Ohio State(as a transfer). i'm thinking of switching over to verizon because they have better plans and better phones. does anyone know how verizon's service is around columbus and it's surrounding towns??

thank you for any replies.

and i suppose the real question in, which service provider is better in studio, since i probably won't really be in the downtown area at all.

Verizon works; just not in the elevators. But you should take the ramps anyway.

Yeah, I have Verizon and I've never had a problem with reception anywhere in the Columbus area (I live in Gahanna).

Wolf Blitzer also has a stake in the Cinglar vs. Verizon battle:

I have Verizon in Columbus and have had no problems. I don't go by campus much so I don't know how it works there or in the buildings there. I had Sprint when I first moved here, it was crap. But I think that is the case for Sprint everywhere.

@symmetry: Yes. I heartily agree. I wouldn't have Verizon if it weren't for the family plan. Verizon's coverage is better, but I never had a problem with coverage when I had Virgin Mobile or T-Mobile.
