Went from good reception with AT&T inside of my apartment to horrible with Verizon. Consistent dropped calls over a period of a year, anything from two bars to nothing once I head in (10 feet from the window). Only way to be sure the call is good is to head outside into the parking lot and that's not desireable given Bloomington winters.

Absolutely terrible. Most calls over a few minutes will suffer a drop. Stepping outside only slightly improves reception. Phone occasionally switches from 1x to analog, and you can hear how truly bad the reception is.

Coverage is excellent virtually everywhere, including inside my house. Some loss of signal inside College Mall, but not enough to drop calls.

I get reception in almost every room of every building on campus. I think that my phone has something to do with that though, since I seem to get better reception than most of the people I know, even those with Verizon. But I have seen a few other Verizon phones get reception even in the worst rooms as well. Overall, I believe that Verizon has the best service available... no contest.

Excellent reception in most of the outside places, and got signals in most of the classrooms.

I can use my phone in most elevators without missing a single word. The phone gets horrible battery life when it's out of signal range, however.

Limited on the road with no service in the house. Complaints have done noth to fix the lack of reception.

Tower strength is very spotty and very low. Most calls are lost. Other providers seem to have good tower strength.

AT&T and Verizon towers are spotty and Verizon grabs AT&T signal, telling you it doesn't recognize your signal. Service cuts in and out depending on what part of town you are in, north, south, east or west side.
