Sheraton Waikiki / Lewer St., Honolulu, HI 96813 |
Fri Nov 21, 2008 |
I have no reception at all inside Sheraton while my friends who use AT&T have 4 or 5 bars. I often miss call around Honolulu. I only get a miss call message after the call has been missed. It sucks. Unfortunately, I just committed to a 2-year agreement because I wanted a new phone. If there is no serious improvement in the next 2 years, I am switching to AT&T.

I drive all over this island and shop at Ala Moana, Ward Center, where ever. I can talk on my phone all the way at the bottom floor of Ala Moana with no problems. I have noticed a few spotty locations heading up towards the North Shore, but they are few and far between. I can talk in my house without problems. No static, no dropped calls. Verizon works better here than it has in other places we've lived (Fort Ord, anyone?)

H1 Toward Aloha Stadium, Honolulu, HI 96817 |
Tue Oct 09, 2007 |
Reception rating: 1 (poor) -Calls drop every time in that location. Sprint PCS (poor customer service) provides me at lesat two dropped calls daily. Coverage is spotty at fringe areas of the island that is least populated or traveled. There is no signal after moving >100 feet into a parking structure. Elevators eliminate their signal. It can't be faulted in CDMA technology because Verizon Wireless uses the same technology and users are able to hold calls in parking structures and in elevators.

The reception of Verizon for me has been excellent in Hawaii. I haven't tried out of state but I always have connection, even in most elevators and places where tm, cingular, and many others don't, I even got service at the rest stop at Mauna Kea!

In general, reception around Honolulu is not very good. Call quality is also poor, and Sprint's customer services is the absolute WORST!

Bishop St. / King St., Honolulu, HI 96814 |

For the last two weeks, I have consistently experienced poor reception within a two block radii of this Location. Unfortunately, this is the hub of the downtown Honolulu business district. Dropped calls are not only an inconvenience, they are unacceptable with the rates we as subscribers are being charged. I have been a T-Mobile customer since they were Voicestream. Never experienced any trouble with them until this year. I am given to understand that they have lost several repeater sites on Oahu. But would the company disclose that to its customers? No, they would not Jim Clement

Tons of dropped calls lately. Word from my rep is that Nextel gave up antennae sites and now overload of calls in coverage areas are dropping calls. Good news is you still get charged the minutes for redialing!
