I was with Cingular before but had to switch to Verizon because of bad reception with Cingular. Verizon is the only carrier that works perfect in my apartment. My friends with T-Mobile and Cingular had similar issues whenever they visit my place. So far Verizon never let me down. I am going to extend the contract with Verizon for another 2 yrs after my current contract period that ends in the next few weeks.

Accident occured on 10 July 2006: Needed to dial 911 for emergency. 3 (same mfg) phones on 3 different numbers with T-Mobile would not dial 911. Could have been life and death situation if a heart attack had occured. This was a freak accident and broken leg not life threatening, but very scary. Waiting for resolution from T-Mobile which so far has not been encouraging. $800 termination fees on 4 phones. T-Mobile says I am stuck for the fees even with no recption.

Pretty good reception on the whole with Nextel around here, but occasional break-ups and choppiness inside my apartment... better call quality outside.

In the home the service is very bad.. mostly no service. Outside it floats from 4-5 to 1. Not sure but seems like the phone is having a problem staying with the good cell site and bouncing to a poor one.

My AT&T didn't work on campus but not Verizon. I have no problem in almost all areas.

Never drop any calls have been with Verizon for 5 years now. always have service if theres reception problems its probably the phone.

Always good reception on several Verizon phones, esp the old Kyocera. But Ok with Samsung SCH-A670 and Motorola e815, also. However, with an early Sprint Samsung Uproar (1st MP3 phone), had to return it cause no signal at this location. :(

T-Mobile has essentially no capability out this way. After filing a service request, their engineering came back and simply said no towers are planned in 2006. I don't understand how they can ignore such a large area of growth with all the homes and businesses. You have to drive out of the area 3 to 5 miles to get any coverage. File your service requests; the more the merrier to get them to do something about this area. How hard is it to simply put up a few towers or even one would be nice ?

Poor and choppy all across Valley View Ave, up most of Alum Rock Ave to Rennie, continuing unintelligible down Greenside to Gordon, and terrible on back to McKee. Extremely poor in SaveMart supermarket at McKee and Toyon and extremely poor in the parking lot. Cingular says there are 6 Cingular cell towers within a 3 mile radius, but they don't do us any good around here.

Strong signal on Cingular in this area.
