Been nearly non existent for 1 week.!

I use TracFone. They use Cingular. My phone is an old refurbished one. I get EXCELLENT reception just about everywhere with two(2) exceptions. Near Marion, AL is nonexistant and in the Cullman, AL area it's very poor, due to the mountains. I would recommend Cingular to anyone. The reason I chose TracFone is that I use my phone mostly for EMERGENCIES and I did NOT want a contract or monthly fee.

I live on the side of Shades Mountain in Homewood. I have been through almost all cell companies. Only Verizon has been able to provide service inside of my condo.

I've had T-Mobile for 2 years and have never experienced a dropped call. Reception and clarity are excellent!

Can't get reception in my home.

My neighborhood is basically a dead zone. Verizon indicated that there is a bad cell in the area, but did not indicate when / if it would be repaired.

My phone does get any reception from cheery avenue up to hill view school. I have no service on the phone at the house at all.

1 to 3 bars of reception at my house on Linpark Drive. No reception at all in the basement.

Cingular on the Summit rocks 5 bars and reaches really well into Cahaba Heights as well.

I can't complain at all. This is a used phone, too.
