Text msgs make it through unreliably and seemingly at random. Telephone reception comes and goes while standing still on a calm day. Browser access to Net is not possible. Moving into area and am concerned about lack of service. I see that T-Mobile touts a "good" level connection. I may try their WiFi hotspot device and see if I can acess the Net - as long as its returnable if I can't. Don't want to give up Verizon as my phone carrier. Their cell service is great, coast-to-coast. Its their abysmal customer service and website that I would not miss.

cingular has been one of my most dissapointing providers, recently they've been pushing me to change my plan beacuse I'm costing THEM too much money. I use most of my free night min. and according to them I'm getting signal from a tower that isn't theirs and they have to pay a fee. The sad thing is that there is in fact a WORKING Cingular tower at the end of this road.( that's the large thing at huskey park) they also "can't" tell me whose tower I'm using so I can change services. this is very dissapointing because I've been telling everyone how great my provider is, Now I'm having to tell everyone to get out before they get pushed around like I have.

Nearest cell tower is approx. 2 miles away, terrain hilly between. Signal loss happens a lot, even when connected it drops out frequently. Actual signal level bars fluctuate greatly, from none to 4 on my phone, averaging at 2 bars. This happens from within my home but ouside is no different. Difficult to get a signal for a call much of the time. Coverage map shows area to have a couple blank places here, presumably caused by the terrain where the tower gets blocked.

I have good service starting about 1 mile west of Cotaco Creek on hwy 36 all the way into Hartselle on Hwy. 36 and all the way into Decatur on hwy 67.
