Default Cell Phones in TV

We are moving to TV Sept 20,2013. Wondering what the best Cell Phone company for the area. Would appreciate any input. My contract is up on my phone and I don't want to renew if another company would be better for reception and cost.

Have a great day everyone!

I've found Wal-Mart's SmartTalk (with Verizon) to be a pretty good deal. $45/month, everything unlimited. Just buy your phone. Much better deal than any of the two-year contracts. If you do go with a contract, I'd go with either Verizon, Virgin or AT&T. At least they have coverage here (Virgin pays a fee to Verizon for tower usage from what I understand).

I understand T Mobile has good coverage in TV and no contract for $60/month (talk, text, data)

Verizon hands down. Coverage is fantastic. Have never had a dropped call and it works on both coasts when I sail! There maybe better priced plans but to me coverage is most important!

I have Verizon and I like it. IU had it in Massachusetts and it was by far the best. The only problem that I have is that I don't get good reception in some parts of my house. Like right here at my computer desk.
