gfreshsushi Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 the coverage is fucking weak. i had one for work and i just stopped trying to call my boss with it. if you're inside or in an area that's even a little hilly, your shit goes dead. weak sauce.

GLIK$ Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 My nextel service here in lower NY is actually pretty good. Only problem I had with them was activating my caller ID, and now my voicemail is being weird. All in all bling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26SidedCube Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 In Michigan and NY I've always gotten perfect service with Nextel. Even during the eastcoast blackout thing I had sporratic service through the day... people who tell you otherwise are haters. Sprint blows cock and balls and Nokia needs to get on the ball with the direct connect if they ever expect my patronage again.... Nextel all the way.

gfreshsushi Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 maybe nextel coverage is way better on the east coast, but out here on the west side it blows ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest KING BLING Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 "Please hold while the Nextel subscriber is located" Nextel is a fucking bloated bag of rotten cheese and aborted fetus yogurt...I never get ahold of a Nextel person ever, there rates are shit, my friend worked for them and they over charge for technical services and there phones are all bulky as shit...

villain Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 I heard on 2600's off the hook show that verizon is getting sued by the city of new york for some old law. So they may have some ridiculous price hikes in the future if this goes through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferris Bueller Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 Nextel is teh suck. I'd try Sprint's new thing. Although they suck as well. T-Mobile is good shit, but they just don't have the gay walkie-talkie thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXiSTONE Posted April 30, 2004 Share Posted April 30, 2004 Nextel sucks ass down here in the south, no matter where me and my friends went. I switched to Cingular and it rocks. Now whevener i try to call my friends that still have Nextel all i get 90% of the time is that annoying pre-recorded bitch saying "Please Hold While The Nextel Subscriber You Are Trying To Reach Is Located" and all i can think to myself every time i hear that is that im more likely to drive around town and find them than i am to get a ringtone sometime today.... anyway IMHO it sucks ass, atleast here in Memphis.
