There is a tower less than a mile from my house but I don't know who's tower it is. I miss a lot of calls and drop even more.

The phone sucks. That is what I have on my screen when you turn the phone on. I have taken the phone back about 6 times and was given another one. Of course, I am still under contract with the Audiovox so I was given the same one otherwise, I would have to pay $150.00 at the cheapest for a phone. I drove from the light at Brockington and 107 to Bobbit Lane and 107. I had no reception at all. I placed a call and drove back through the area and my call was lost. This happens almost anywhere I go. Even in my house. When I get a signal, I have to stop and not move or I will lose the call or have no reception. I called Alltel numerous times to be told "I see that you have been a customer of Alltel since 2000 and I want to thank you for that." Then I am told that I can not get a different phone at one of the good prices, I have to pay full price. Gee, what "thanks I get for being a long time customer!" I have not had any other issues with Alltel. Any other time I had to talk to customer service, it's been great. Any issue was taken care of promptly and to my advantage.

constantly 5 bars of signal. crystal clear reception from sprints nationwide digital network, coupled with the high performance capabilities of the Samsung blade,make for a trouble free communication and data experience. 10 out of 10

East or west bound on I-40 at or near Levy I drop many calls. Otherwise my reception is good.

Their reception is ok except for lines being dropped every time you turn around but I guess that's pretty much everywhere. Their biggest problem is their lack of customer service. It is AWFUL - whether on the phone or at their Lakewood Village store (and I would NOT recommend going there!). They don't offer any kind of incentatives to keep their customers. Their biggest "selling point" is that "they don't charge you a fee to change your service and ALL the other companies do". Well, that may be but I know for a fact that Cingular will waive that charge to keep you as a customer (I've got both Alltel and Cingular phones). Alltel is not interested in keeping you as a customer - they're only interested in new customers and getting them into a contract.

Bought the phone 30 days ago. After so long it drops calls. I have called Cingular customer service several times. They tell me nothing is wrong with my phone. I am sending it back today and ending contract with Cingular. The recption is good around Little Rock. In some area's in the state of Arkansas and other states no signal.
