what,s the best cell phone service?

Please post more details like in what area you want service in. Also it will be good if you post some of the info you already have.

Your choice in carrier is majorly impacted on the area in which you live: city/rural/college area. . . it also depends on what you want to use your cell phone for.

I've had experience with a few cell carriers. I never had a good time with Cell one. I've had Verizon Wireless for years, and have no complaints. When you're close to a tower, your cell could become your only phone. I tend to only get dropped calls when I'm in the total boonies or in known-cellphone issue locations.

My brother had Sprint service for many years, and was very pleased with that. He had better signal than we did with Verizon--or at least a signal that seemed to work in places ours did not.

Currently, he has Nextel through work, and they're looking into switching because it costs so much. Mainly die to the fact that all the employees make most of their calls during the day.

I have US Cellular, Cellular One, Unicel, Verizon Wireless.... In my opinon, Unicel is the best, userfriendly company.  They really work hard to keep their customers happy.  They get alot of new phones, and get plently of perks.  The only draw back is they arn't in all areas yet.
