I recently switched from Cingular to Verizon in Topeka. I am much much more satisfied with Verizon. Reception with Verizon in Topeka is heads and sholders above Cingular. I don't know about the rest of the country, but Cingular has some major issues in Topeka.

Just got Cingular in Topeka and reception is very low in major areas. Will leave them during my trial period.

Others who have Cingular on here are correct. I have horrible luck with Cingular in Topeka. Many areas you have to go outside a house and then reception is still really poor. I would not recommend Cingular if your going to live in Topeka. Poor poor reception for a large city.

T-mobile in many parts of Topeka, offers very poor coverage, dropped calls, network failure, the phone must be taken outside to make a call. Then you get two bars and horrible reception. Great customer service though!

Caution Topekans! Don't get Cingular if you depend on a phone in Topeka! Some spots are fine, but others are awful and practically non-existant right in town.

Cingular has awful reception in this large part of Topeka.

They added a tower out here. perfect coverage. alot better than Sprint and cingular.

One bar, and thats if your lucky! Horrible reception from a horrible carrier.

Verizon is spotty out north of topeka.

Sprint is the worst carrier I have ever had. Drive anywhere outside the city limits and your call is dropped. Don't even think of traveling. My friends have CellularOne and Alltel and have no problem.

Excellent Service all around Topeka
