Title: Cell Service Provider in Leavenworth / Plain / Lake Wenatchee
Post by: acnewman55 on July 30, 2013, 04:45:19 PM: I live in Seattle but my folks have a place up near Lake Wenatchee and I spend a lot of my weekends there.

I have a problem though - I have terrible cellular and data service with my iPhone and AT&T up there - even though it's fine throughout Seattle.

I was thinking I'd switch over to Verizon which seems to work much better in the Lake Wenatchee area.

Does anyone have experience with Verizon (or another carrier for that matter) in that general area? :dunno:

I don't know a ton of folks up there so I figured I'd crowd source some advice from the Hunt-Wa community.

Thanks everyone! :tup:

We drove up to Lake Wenatchee and Fish lake to check the fish reports. My wife was on her phone the whole way. Neither of us lost signal in that area. We are on AT&T, and have iPhone 5's.

Verizon it is!
