<p>can anyone suggest a cell phone carrier that works best on campus? are there any carriers that don't get good reception at Storrs?</p>
<p>When walking around campus with my son it seemed my AT&T had full strength. I would assume verizon would be as good or better.</p>
<p>Verizon is the best. I have friends with ATT and t-mobile that don’t get service.</p>
<p>My son is probably attending this fall. We are from CA so do you suggest we switch to a local plan or stick with CA area code. Do do if this will be onsired long distance call.</p>
<p>^ Having Verizon, I’ll say that there is no long-distance if you are calling another Verizon phone. I am unsure if other carriers have this same sort of feature. But there isn’t a reason, in my mind, to switch area codes if this is true for you.</p>
<p>I got great reception with AT&T.</p>
