 |  Re: Western NC AT&T and Verizon are ok in Cherokee, NC The Harrah's Cherokee Casino area had good coverage. I was there a few months ago. Sprint & SunCom are unheard of in that area.

US Cellular has the 800 mhz license instead. Alltel is however over all the rest of NC & SC & Northeast TN. In WNC an Alltel phone will roam on Sprint or Verizon. An Alltel phone can also roam on US Cellular for free in WNC, despite a solid roam symbol.

That said I think some people have found that even on national plans, most USCC systems are free to use. | |

| Re: Western NC I could have sworn I got charged roaming when I roamed on USCC on a trip to Cherokee last year (I am on National Freedom). However, on a recent trip to WV I roamed on USCC and was not charged. |

I purposely force my phone to & leave my phone on USCC (SID 246) I've used alot of minutes on them, and I have never gotten charged on USCC 246. Trust me, I've used USCC alot in WNC (and also SID 309 in NW NC) , you will not get charged on nat'l freedom. Try roaming on them next time you go there.
