Re: ...

Pay close attention now...

My complaint is that Verizon did not build a cell site where US Cellular did.

Since US Cellular built the site and Verizon roams on US Cellular Verizon no longer needs to build a site.

Still with me?

The problem is now that Verizon can say that they service this area, and they do - for voice, nobody cares that they are roaming.

The problem is that I paid for data. Verizon finally brought EVDO close to this area, but they won't overlap with US Cellular.

US Cellular only supplies 1xRTT. Not that 1xRTT is that bad, it's just that they have a problem with it - it runs at about 80kb/s, not so bad, the real problem is the latency - it jumps around between .9 and 4 seconds - worse than satellite Internet. Unusable for remote desktop and VPN.

Now who do I complain to about this? Verizon? Not their network. US Cellular? They don't even offer data to their customers last time I checked. I can't complain to them since I don't have service with them.

I do have service with Verizon and they are not making me happy.

That's my complaint and I'm entitled to my own complaints.

Others read these posts and may be trying to deal with a similar problem or may want to make purchase decisions based on other's experiences.

To bad if you don't understand...
