I've had Verizon for about 8 years and never had a problem until I moved here from Virginia. I've spoken with my neighbors, and virtually no one on my block gets decent cell reception, when they get any at all. This is especially frustrating because I was hoping to get the new iPhone soon, but I don't even see the point in getting such an expensive phone if it's virtually useless. From people's comments, there's no point in even switching to Sprint, which I was tempted to do for their unlimited plan. Come on, cell phone companies. Shape up and realize your southwestern customers are unhappy.

Terrible reception with AT&T. Reception is completely unreliable. I sometimes go 3 hours with out being able to call or receive calls especially during dinner hours. Brutal service and I get 4 bars on the phone. Dropped calls are routine.

Almost impossible to complete a call. AT&T connection out here was rock solid but switching to Verizon has almost completely destroyed our reception!

Very spotty, especially in my neighborhood. Have to leave my house to get a call in the park but drops repeatedly. I have been a customer a long time and lived in several states but it's just not worth it anymore. I will cut my losses and switch carriers for my family at Xmas.

No reception in apartment. Even stepping outside to the parking lot only gains 0-1 bars. Zero reception west of Overland Trail. Coworkers with T Mobile get usable signal whereas I can't use my phone at all. Good reception in the Foothills Mall where Verizon gets no signal. In my opinion, T Mobile has the best overall reception in FTC.

I love Verizon! It's more reliable than my comcast connection, so I canceled comcast and I just tether my Thunderbolt for Internet. I'm glad foco finally has 4g! Couldn't be happier.

Weak signal most of the time! No connection today. Usually only 1 or 2 bars on my Thunderbolt at home or at work by the Fort Collins / Loveland airport. It slips in and out of 3G mode. Sometimes I get 4G mode. I have to turn on wifi at home to get a reliable connection. On vacation last week I got 5 bars and solid 3g east of Sturgis and strong signal all over the Black Hills in South Dakota. You would think they would have better coverage here than there.

Rarely complete a call. Bars go from "searching" to 3 to 1 to 2 and back and forth constantly. AT&T wants me to pay $99 plus $20 / month for a home tower.

WORST COVERAGE! I can't even speak to a representative because by the time they get on the phone, my service drops! If you're in the FTC, do not sign up for AT&T!

Dropped calls are more frequent than non-dropped calls. I've been an AT&T customer for 8 years, and now it's the worst ever! I've been loyal too long. The only help I get is a monthly $25 service credit. I tried the in-home micro cell, which sucked. They claim to be putting towers in soon, but it's way too late. Their business care is rather pathetic. I think it's funny that the employees at the ATT store in town walk around like there is no problem. They point the finger at the Iphone 4, not at their lack of service. Poor service and a weaker customer satisfaction program.

Just west of Poudre Valley Hospital, I get at best 2 bars, usually 1. At East Prospect Rd. and Prospect Parkway, No Service. Colleagues with T-Mobile and Verizon can walk through the office talking comfortably on their cellphones when needed; I have to rush outside to catch a call. AT&T, can you PLEASE add a tower near us???

AT&T is absolutely terrible! I experience 4-5 dropped calls every day as my job takes me from Ft. Collins / Loveland to Greeley and back. When you call 611 they just don't seem to care. I don't need credit for minutes, I need reception. I have heard T-Mobile is just as bad, I don't know where to go next but it certainly won't be with AT&T!

Many many dropped calls from this area and poor reception overall. Verizon should be ashamed of this, it is a highly populated area about 1.5 miles from downtown Ft. Collins.

I live in Fossil Lake ranch and service is terrible. 75% of my calls are dropped and have to continue to redial. This is my 2nd smart phone thought my first was the problem but I am positive it is the service

Satisfied for the most part. Dropped calls happen only once in a great while. Some calls are difficult to understand because of choppy voice but that could be a combination of several things.

AT&T coverage is absolutely pathetic. However, I returned my iPhone and went to T-Mobile and picked up the Samsung Vibrant Galaxy S (which blows the iPhone out of the water, by the way), but T-Mobile coverage is every bit as pathetic as AT&T. I don't know what I'm going to do now.

I moved to this side of town from Old Town, where my AT&T coverage was good. Now I rarely get through a call without at least one drop. I have talked to several neighbors and all agree that AT&T coverage is horrible in Quail Hollow. Unfortunately I love my iPhone, but once Verizon or another carrier picks it up I'm jumping ship.

I used Verizon for almost a decade (minus an ill-fated year with Qwest). I have lived all over town: Overland Trail / Vine, College / Willox, College / Fossil Creek, Lemay / Southridge Greens, and currently Harmony / Zeigler. I even had reception when I lived in Glacier View, near Red Feather. I did have reception problems at Lemay / Southridge Greens, but I lived in the bottom of a 2-story condo, and even then it worked well. I am an electrician, and I work all over this area, and I can tell you that there are rarely times that I could not get a signal. Sometimes by the Budweiser Events Center on I-25 I would drop a call, but that's about it. I recently switched to Sprint because Verizon's data plans are retarded expensive. I don't know if I can stomach the poor reception from Sprint, though.
