Verizon
Love Verizons network. Recently switched over from AT&T. AT&T has a HORRIBLE network here. Dropped calls, slow data, ect. I don't see how that one guy is having good service with AT&T. Love Verizon. My whole family is now switching over from AT&T.

Moving to Florida to Wild Heron development, between 30A and Panama City Beach. There is no reception to very poor reception unless you are on the beach, 2 miles south of my home. I don't want to drive to the beach to be able to use my mobile phone (relatively new phone). Yikes!

iPhone 3GS / AT&T: LOL, it was a joke the entire time we were there... 3G is nonexistant and if youre lucky you can get 2 bars on Edge. The whole place is terrible for cell reception. Side note -Destin is just as bad.

T-Mobile cell phone coverage in Panama City Beach is like non-existent. Why are all providers mainly out of Jacksonville?

The highest point in Bay county, the Hathaway bridge, and Nextel looses its signal.

I have had several cell phone carriers and they are really all the same when it comes to coverage. There will always be areas that do not have coverage no matter what service that you have. Keep in mind if you have a medal roof (like if you live in a trailer) that will be the reason that you do not receive coverage inside your home. Nextel says to turn your phone off and on when traveling so that your phone can connect with the closest tower. This has worked for me so you may want to give it a try. It is also important to turn your phone off and on once a day so that it can reregister with the towers giving you the best and clearest signal. The best thing about Nextel is that I will never receive roamig charges months later as I have with other carriers... no surprises! As far as others comments about Nextels service being worse after the merger that is crazy because the two services work on different towers. Nextel is a IDEN network and not compatable with the Sprints network. So that can not have any impact on the service. If anyone ever comes up with the perfect service they will make a mint... .good luck!

Usually I get 3 or 4 bars outside, which isn't too bad. Inside, though, I get a very iffy 2 bars. Kind of disappointing for such a high traffic area. So unless you're outside don't count on great reception.
