Am I roaming now?

By: Lynn Smith on Wednesday, January 25, 2006
From Saint Albans WV (United States)
Experience: 2 Years
Pros: Excellent rates.

Cons: Flukey service.

Summary: Strangest thing - I seriously can stand at the corner of the front yard and be in my home range. But in the driveway, I'm in roaming! Other than that, NTelos service has been about par with the other two cell phone services I've used, but recently I've noticed a decline. Apparently, towers are being taken out of service in the roaming areas and are not being replaced. This is causing calls not to be received and voice mail not being forwarded until I'm back in my home range.
