Surprise! US Cellphone Providers Suck


Well... maybe my title was a bit too blunt and mean, but essentially, it gets to the point.

In recent report from Consumer Reports National Research Center, it was found that "fewer than half of respondents were completely or very satisfied with their cellphone service," and it hasn't really been improving the years past.

The biggest thing that people hate were high prices and mandatory contract extensions. While pro-rated ETFs (Early Termination Fees) is becoming a normalcy, but there are still some carriers still giving a cold shoulder about it.

The "best" ranking went to Verizon and Alltel. Both scored higher than the rest (which might not say much.... DOES NOT say much, I mean). Still remains at the bottom, Sprint.... Good going, guys.

Think about it, how difficult is it to like the companies that lock you up in the moment you decide on a phone/plan and only be as helpful as a computer without a monitor...

Scratch that, I guess my title was right and I'm not being too blunt. The US cellular providers do suck after all.
