Main
Carriers of Cellular Services
Below is a review of the larger mobile
companies in the United States:
 AT&T is the
largest mobile phone company in the United States.
It exists as a result of a merger with Cingular wireless
and other smaller carriers around the country. AT&T
is a company that has seen great success since its launch this can
be attributed to their flexible, competitive minute plans. At the
end of each month, any unused minutes are rolled over rather than
lost. In addition to great
plans, AT&T offers coverage all over the USA
and
Puerto Rico.
 Verizon Wireless
is the second largest cellular provider in the
United States. The company
exists due to a merger with several large wireless operators in
the 1990s. Customers can enjoy great rates with Verizon as well as
the benefit of having unused minutes roll over each month. They
have now teamed up with OnStar so that Verizon customers are now
able to access OnStar navigation services through their cell
phones.
  The
Sprint/Nextel network is the third largest wireless carrier in the
United States. They are one of
the oldest wireless companies in existence and they offer wireless
coverage all over the
United States. Sprint offer great phones with varied features such
as real tone MP3 players and media players, they have great audio
on their network as well. Their
plans are extremely competitive and come with rollover minutes.
 T-Mobile is a
fast growing worldwide wireless company. It is the best mobile
carrier to use if you travel on a regular basis. In
addition to offer cellular services, T-Mobile also offers Wi-Fi
services in public locations. They
are the 4th largest wireless carrier in the States
and offers some of the best rates.
 Alltel can be
described as a wireless carrier for the people.
They offer standard phones but great rates and flexibility.
Customers can easily switch plans, there is no charge for
dropped calls and they also allow customers to make 10 free calls
per month to any network.
 Boost is a new
wireless service that offers excellent prepaid service and long
range walkie-talkie service as well.
If you and friends and family are looking for an
inexpensive way to communicate, Boost is it.
Their walkie-talkie service is limited to those on the iDEN
network so ensure that others are also willing to use this service
along with you before committing.
  Dobson
is the most successful mobile carrier for rural USA, especially
Alaska. They do business
under the brand of Cellular One, which is what you may know them
by. As with many carriers these days, Dobson assists customers in
switching to their service without having to change their phone
number. Phones and
service from Dobson compete on an average level with other
companies.
