Shops, Products, Services

I started Cellular One service in Wisconsin in July last year. It was a 2 year contract. I had to go with them as Verizon had no coverage where i lived in Wisconsin. I had NO OTHER CHOICES!

Well 3 weeks ago i moved to Montana. I wanted to do a market transfer and get a local # but when i called i found out that Cell One is not Cell One nationwide! There is more than 1 Cell One as they are franchised and most do not transfer between each other!

Now i am stuck with a GSM phone in a state with only Analog and Digital coverage and was forced into a nationwide plan which is 2X the $ i was paying before with 2/3'ds the minutes i had on a local plan in Wisconsin!!!

My friend with Cell One out here has service where i don't even though were both with Cell One! The only way out of the contract is to pay $20 per phone for the 16 months i have left in it!!! That is $640!!! I have transfered with Verizon 3 different times and never had this issue!!!

I think it is VERY deceptive for a company that uses the same logo nationwide to do this! Just thought EVERYONE should know about there deceptive practices! I am posting this on no less than 20 web boards with over 500,000 members between them. I hope it takes a bite out of Cell One's pocket as there sure taking a bite out of mine!
