I live in N. Peoria. Been with Alltel for years with perfect reception at my house. Now that Verizon has taken over, my home office has become a dead zone. I can never forget to plug my phone in at night or it will be dead by morning from trying to connect to the network all night. I never had that problem until Verizon took over. I can no longer conduct business at my own home office desk as no text or calls will come through and any call I try to make will either not connect or the call will be dropped. I have notified Verizon customer service of this issue and was told by an engineer that via VM the "I live in a marginal coverage area". Makes me mad because I wasn't in a "marginal coverage area" until Verizon showed up.

Reception is OK until we go inside our house. Can only answer calls in the house and they ALWAYS drop within a few seconds. Same issues for our neighbors as well. Told Verizon about it, just like our neighbors did, and same old story: we'll have a tech check out the towers. They also offered to update our phones / program them on their computer (takes about 25 minutes), but it made zero difference. According to the neighbors here it has ALWAYS been this way... and the community has been here for at least 4 years.

For over a year now, 1 - 0 Bars. In order to make a call, I either drive 10 miles south or go to higher grounds. Contacted T-Mobile Customer Service and they told me I should have 3 bars in the area. The service rep said they would said a tech out to see about a possible coverage expansion. Better then nothing and better then what AT&T said, which was they would note the outage and if more customers called they would do something about it.

Cannot use my cell in my house or neighborhood. Verizon is no help after many complaints. This area needs a tower. I don't know of any carrier with good coverage in this area. I would estimate over 5,000 newer homes in this area with poor coverage. And yes, 85383 is a valid zip code!

Dropped calls or no bars a lot of the time-always on Lake Pleasant and Williams. Can't even get any service inside the new SuperTarget-that's just a shame! Have patchy service and connections throughout the Valley. Poor service when I travel to Iowa and Minnesota too. Can't wait until my service contract expires in 2 weeks! AT&T-I'm dropping YOU!

My phone is a Tri-mode and I can get reception just about anywhere in AZ. Including way off the beaten path.

I go one mile down the road and no service, and do not get good service when I make trips to Tempe to go to school.

For the most part reception is pretty good throughout the Phoenix area, so far as I have experienced. What really ticks me off about Sprint is their poor customer service. I have had numerous issues with billing and their poor business practices. I am shopping for new service... .Alltel, Cingular, Verison... .here I come.

I have a cell phone and a wireless card for my computer. Both ALWAYS get exceptional reception. I've heard others complain about Sprint and say Verizon is the best, but my wife has Verizon and we usually have the same reception or I have better around town. It could just be the phone models we have, though. I travel to California, Nevada, and Utah. I never have a problem.

Bought the Migo phone for my son and honestly it's better than both mine and my fiance's phones / service. I've never had his phone drop a call or not have reception. It's loud and clear and has had no problems.

Mostly good reception. Have had a few dropped calls and problems with people being able to get through to my phone(goes straight to voicemail and on a few rare occasions has given people a busy signal).

Almost always have 5 bars. Very rarely have dropped calls unless.

I have 1 bar and lose calls 99% of the time have to drie 2 mileswest to get good reception to call without a problem Peoria 85382

We have contacted Verizon several times with no results. They are of no help and unresponsive. We have numerous dropped calls and the service is poor from Union Hills all the way to Pinnicale Peak from 83rd to 107th Ave. Many of our neighbors have other servie with little problems. In two years,when our plan expires we plan to switch. How can Verizon sell service where they have no reception?????

Average to below average reception indoors. Sometimes requires user to move to a different room for better reception.

Good reception [4-5 bars] on T-Mobile with V188 [inside house as well, 91st ave / Cactus]. Went down I10 all the way to Houston TX [from Peoria AZ] and back. Only about 30 miles of no reception [around New Mexico / Arizona border]. Had several hundred miles of roaming in Texas with 1 to 2 bars [network 310-120, static / dropping on some calls but usable]. It also connected to Cingular [and a few other networks along the way] with good results.

Reception every where I go (up to 50 miles south of 101 and Union Hills). Except no reception in the back of Walmart, and none in the lower areas of Lake Pleasant

Excellent Cingular coverage in this location.

Very low signal on 101 beween Bell and Union hills

Before the merger, AT&T wasn't too bad, the only place I had trouble was at my house (No real problem there). But since the Cingular merger I get dropped constantly and have trouble with even getting reliable service anywhere.
