Verizon Mobile Phone Service in Seattle/Tacoma/Everett

Pros: Keeps you connected with your family.
Cons: Keeps you connected with your family.

THE FAMILY PLAN and HOW IT WORKS The Verizon family plan works like all the major carriers plans ~~ you have two or more phones in one family that can call each other for free. Some plans have unlimited free calling and others have a ...

Pros: Superb Customer Service, Good Coverage
Cons: ~*~

My husband and I have experienced multitudes of interaction with various customer service representatives from Verizon Wireless ~ Everett/Seattle Region. In every instance the person helping us has exceeded our expectation for exceptional...

Pros: Lots of features at a great price.
Cons: Confusing (aren't all wireless plans?), poor customer service.

Pros: Good coverage, great customer service, good rates
Cons: Voice quality can be a bit burbly at times

Let me first say the my cell phone is an Audiovox CDM-4500 (a dual mode phone) and I most frequently use it within the Seattle/Bellevue area to make local calls, so I'm not commenting on the long range quality or long distance charges for Verizon, merely...

Pros: Wide service area; good service plans; friendly, helpful customer service
Cons: Local coverage isn't perfect; occasional glitches with MobileWeb service

Rather than droning on and on about all of the virtues of Verizon Wireless's service, maybe this anecdote will give you an idea:

My girlfriend used to work for Verizon. She now works for a competing carrier. That carrier gives their...

Pros: #1 in Coverage (Local and National), Excellent Customer Service, Worry Free Price Plan Flexibility
Cons: In Seattle, text messages can only be received on your phone (not sent).

Coverage:
*Extensive Home Calling Area - I don't have to worry about being out of a certain area before placing a call (especially long distance calls).
*Unlike other service providers, there are not additional charges when your phone switches...

Pros: Coverage
Cons: Sketchy customer service

I've had Verizon service since moving to Seattle in August '02, and their coverage is very reasonable if you have a good phone. I haven't gone off their digital network anywhere in the city -- although I've yet to find any carrier that covers Capitol ...

Pros: none
Cons: Bad product, bad service, booby traps to force you to extend your contract

The first thing one needs to understand about Verizon is that customer service is a kind of stepchild that receives cursory attention only in lulls between sales pitches. The second thing is that the cell phones they offer free are crap. The third ...

Pros: Most functional cell phone service across the country.
Cons: Generally good customer service but some reps get a bit arrogant at times.

I live in the Tacoma area but travel often. One critical factor for cell phone service is the amount of towers. With Verizon, I have had a good signal where the other carriers failed. In the Tacoma area, the signal strength has been great. Even ...

Pros: Great coverage, ease of ordering service, great deal on phones
Cons: It drops calls in some areas of my house.

First of all, Verizon was one of the only providers who would give me 2 lines of service without a deposit, so that made me extremely happy. I decided to go with their service though because they seem to have the most extensive coverage throughout the US...

Pros: Absolutely outstanding service everywhere in comparison to other carriers.
Cons: Fairly frequent billing issues, not credited immediately.

Over the last several years, I have had the chance to experience many different cellular service carriers. I started with Airtouch (prior to Verizon merger), Voice Stream (prior to T-Mobile merger), AT&T (prior to Cingular merger), and finally Verizon ...

Pros: Great Coverage, Nice plans
Cons: Bad billing, lack of phone choices

am a manager for a cell phone store in the Washington area. Currently we sell AT&T, Verizon, VoiceStream, Nextel and Quest, so I have experience with all these carriers.
I recently decided to get myself a phone and picked Verizon as my choice,...

Pros: Large coverage area
Cons: none really

I finally had to break down and get a cell phone. I travel a lot to the Washington and Oregon Coast alone, and thought it would be handy if my car ever broke down (not that it ever will though..knock knock knock.). I looked at all the wireless...

Pros: Good range, great plan
Cons: Not so great customer service

I decided to get a cell phone because I travel a lot and figured it would be a good to have in an emergency. Plus I make a lot of long distance calls which get expensive.

Living on Camano Island, coverage is pretty scarce. I decided to go...

Pros: Good coverage, good price, few dropped calls.
Cons: No two way messaging yet.

Great coverage with a dual band phone. Their $10 Motorola phone is the deal of the century for simplicity and function. Unlike one of the other folks, I have had a good experience with customer service.

I started using Verizon after dumping...
