My phone does not work at all in my house, but I can sit outside in a chair and not move and I can get "ok" reception. The reception only gets better once I get on Fletcher Parkway, but is terrible in Fletcher Hills.

I get dropped calls while on the Freeway near Los Coches and I get dropped calls and no service at home. Verizon has told me for two years that they are working on imporoving the service (or should I say "NO SERVICE". I have seen no improvement, only an increase in the cost and frustration when the phone doesn't work. My friends now say, " move 2" and call me back. I can see why Verizon has stopped avertising "Can you hear me now?"

I get dropped calls while on the Freeway near Los Coches and I get dropped calls and no service at home. I need to leave my phone on the counter to talk and to receive calls. I'm truly bitter with Verizon here and were I lived before, Thousand Oaks, Ca. I miss At&t. It was so good to me. Cingular did not hold the bar with there service.

Have Cingular TDMA service (formerly ATT), and I can use it in only one room in my house, if I keep perfectly still. I have my cell phone chair. I had switched to the more modern GSM service with a Sanyo phone and I got zero service at my house, and lousy service throughout Southern Calif. With GSM, I could not use it in a moving car, as the signal would drop consistently while driving. So I switched back to the much more reliable TDMA service. Other than my house, it actually gets excellent reception around San Diego, LA, Colorado and wherever I travel around the US. I'll stick with it until I'm convinced GSM service has improved.

You have coverage in the area until you go through this intersection. Lose every call. NEXTEL, you need to expand coverage in the El Cajon area of SAn Diego County. This area has been left with poor coverage.

In my house I have to find a room I have a signal and then stand still. Also, there is no reception in Sycuan Casino. Nextel has been promising for several years to get service there. I hope the merger with Sprint helps, but I left Sprint 6 years ago because their coverage was bad.

T mobile is ok for the most part out here in east county, but it seems to duck out all the time on fuerte drive and at the same spot at the intersection of avocado blvd and fuerte drive

I have had everything from Sprint, Nextel and T-mobile. I now have Verizon and there are 2 spots of dead zone for a split second that I have run into. One at the top of the 52 coming into Santee and towards the bottom if the 67 coming into Lakeside. Verizon is by far the best for reception that I have had by far. The other companies dropped calls daily with diffferent phones and there customer service is top notch. Nextel is by far the best. I paid $200.00 to exit my plan early because I had no reception at my house. Verizon Rocks!
