Terible reception on Samsung BlackJack my wife's Razor is better

west Gunbarrel is spotty with AT&T. Sometimes cannot get signal in the house. Other problem spots - Valmont and Foothills - if I'm on the phone driving into Boulder from the Diagonal, when I get to just before Valmont, calls often drop. Picks up again just south of Valmont. Most of the rest of Boulder pretty OK. Been with ATT - Cingular - ATT (when will they make up their mind!) for 10 years....now thinking of switching...

At ground level, reception is fairly decent almost everywhere I go. Above ground level, such as on the second floor of a building, reception is great. Only problem I have with T-Mobile is when they have issues on their side. I have had T-Mobile service for about a year, and they have had three times where all data signals are dead, so texting, email, and mobile web browsing is dead. Reception in the mountains is non-existant. Verizon picks up in a lot of locations T-Mobile won't. However, Verizon doesn't have as good of reception on the flat ground as T-Mobile does. Not many dead spots when traveling around the front-range. You can be on the phone the entire time while going from Ft. Collins to Denver and not lose the call. There are places where reception isn't great, and you may have to ask the other person to repeat themselves a couple times, but you won't lose the call. I have had quite a few dropped calls, but only 2 or 3 of them were from my side. All the others were because the other person dropped the call. T-Mobile, however, has very poor customer support. If you're looking at getting a new service provider, consider T-Mobile. Just be careful of the few times where you may need to call customer support, because it'll be a nightmare beyond belief.

Excellent reception in Gunbarrel and around Boulder. Maybe 1-2 dropped calls in 5 months. Reception not so great in the mountains.

Works great! I am going to cancel my land line.

The three of us in our house all have Verizon and no one gets decent reception. I can't pull in a good signal at friends' houses nearby or at the Safeway on 28th and Iris. At best it will cut in and out and at worst completely drops me.

Verizon reception in Boulder is horrid. I've lived all over the US and never had worse reception. My phone shows 3-4 bars but I can only make calls if I'm in a perfect spot... and I never receive calls. Talking while driving is impossible because of all the dead spots. I don't know what the deal is... .250,000 people in Boulder... ..cell reception should be better. Heck, everything is frickin flat before the mountains. How come cell phones can't work?!?!

inside building drops all the time. called several times and they said they would look into the problem, but never do anything

On this stretch of hwy 36, I can be sure to have at least 3 dropped calls, and a conversation full of dead spots. Had the same problem with AT&T wireless years ago. Don't know if any provider gives good reception here.

I have been fighting with T-Mobile for over a year now. The reception has been crappy for most of the year it does get better during winter without the leaves on trees. The coverage map is joke. I've talked tech guys I live between the two towers end of their radius points and they don't cross over each other. I moved here from Tucson and I like the plan I have. In town reception is great and Denver area mostly good too. All I want is cell tower to built like Jay Rd and CO 119. I would be happy.

Can't even have a conversation at my new house... .it is so choppy! the whole conversation consists of "what"... .."what"... ... "can you hear me now?"

The phone displays 3-4 bars until the phone rings or I make a call, after which it is usually 1-2 bars. However, this is so much better than it was 2 years ago that I have felt blessed. I can usually get a call out, but often will not know of an incoming call until I get the VM 1-3 days later. Many dead spots around Boulder, but I feel the service functions acceptably if I ignore the cost. Reminds me of the auto industry in the 70s. I have been with ATT (now Cingular) for many years out of simple static inertia and a lack of good alternatives. I still don't know what to do.

1 to 3 out of 8 bars. Very bad quality.

Sprint reception awful to nonexistent at Centennial Middle School - don't buy your kid a Sprint phone if they go here. It's been a problem for me at Parent-Teacher conferences or when I'm picking up my kids. Just south or west of here I get coverage again.

I get good reception through most of boulder with some spots of low signal

Previous 3 year old model with extendable antenna was OK. The new one is essentialy inoperable.

Varies from no reception to 3 bars, even without moving around the house, so calls are dropped or reception is not good enough to hear clearly. Because my prior experience with AT&T had been no better, I had asked Verizon before signing up about reception in my area and they said they had by far the best coverage in this area.

Poor reception outside of Boulder, Lafayette. Great reception in downtown Denver where I work. Decent coverage in the mountains, better than that at home!

I have been a Verizon customer for years, but am considering switching to something else soon. The reception in this neighborhood is terrible! I have complained several times, but Verizon has apparently decided to do nothing about it--great customer service, eh?

bad in the house, bad out on the sidewalk, bad down the block. sick of it!
