We lived in Palm Bay ( Valkaria area) for 10 years... NO cell reception trouble at home. Also, I work on Technoology Dr.and can not use my phones in that area either but co-workers with the exact same phones but differtent service (T-Mobile / Verizon / Metro) all had great reception. I have had several phones (LG, Nokia, and Razor) but was told it was the phones. We moved to Melbourne 3 weeks ago, off John Rhodes / Aurora / Wickham area. We cannot talk on the cell in the house due to dropped calls and not received calls. I called AT&T it is NOT a RECEPTION problem, they said it is our phones. My spouse and I have 2 completely different phones, so how is it our phones. I can walk to the tower as it is less then 1 / 4 mile away. I am totally frustrated and tired of having to go outside to use my phone a home. AT&T - NOT WHAT IT USE TO BE.

Bad or unreliable reception. Changing phones helped but not much. Not too bad on the international coverage since they contract with local companies for coverage.

We constantly have dropped calls on the Nextel Network and messages which arrive hours or days later. I have spoken to customer service... several times. There is a known lack of infrastructure and support equipment to handle traffic. AVOID this service for the time being.

Very Poor Service with Verizon spoke with rep they say they cant do anything no new tower plans.

From my home, most calls break up and I have to resort to the land line. Windover Farms subdivision is in a pocket of weak signal strength for AT&T. Most areas of Melbourne are fine, except for near my home and along I-95.

Consistently poor signal, especially on the west side of the house.

Nextel blows dead bears. Can't get a signal hardly anywhere, then it comes up busy.

Very poor in Columbia Village / classroom buildings, It's a little better in the quad and main dorms (not as many dropped calls). I never knew what a dropped call was until I moved here. Even out in the middle of campus, solid 2 bars, its a miracle if I get 3. I found a magic spot on my desk where I can set my phone down and send and receive texts, but thats not the way a cell phone should work. Maybe I'm just too lazy to walk outside. It's hot out there.

Indoors I get virtually no signal (1-2 bars), and my family hates when I call on my cell phone! Outdoors I get maybe 2 bars at home. It improves after I get out of my neighborhood, but even then it can be spotty. One minute you have 4 bars, then you turn the corner and your call gets dropped because you are down to 1. Even while travelling out of state recently I had similar problems (although my brother-in-law, who has Verizon, never lost his excellent reception the whole time). Guess who I'm switching to?!

If I am indoors I barely get signal and am often unable to make or receive calls. Outdoors is ok but not great. This area needs HELP. I have been a at&t(cingular customer since 2000 and It has been great until I moved to this area.
