What keeps me with US Cellular is the support, I can walk into a local store and get a real answer instead of an endless phone menu. They waived a fee for me once just for being a loyal customer. The network reliability is the icing on the cake.
Personable, in-person support
US Cellular has treated me well, the store staff actually know me and sorted a phone upgrade quickly. Coverage in my area is strong. My only minor gripe is that they don't offer quite as many plan choices as the bigger national carriers do.
Friendly local stores and strong coverage
Fewer plan options
I live well outside town and US Cellular is the only network that gives me real bars at home, where the national carriers leave me searching for signal. Calls are clear and data is plenty fast for streaming. For rural folks this regional carrier is a lifesaver.
Outstanding rural coverage
Been with US Cellular for years and the rewards points have netted me real discounts on upgrades and accessories. Signal at home and around town is steady. I'd give five stars if their roaming when I travel out of region were a bit stronger.
Useful rewards and steady local signal
Weaker out-of-region roaming
Coverage with US Cellular has been dependable across my region and I rarely drop a call. The plans are fairly priced too. The one thing holding it back is that the latest flagship phones sometimes arrive later here than on the national carriers.
Dependable regional coverage and fair pricing
Newest phones arrive late
