Absolutely the worst service I have ever seen. It is not the phone model either since we have had several different phones with them. Pretty poor service to begin with but in the last few years the phone has utterly become worthless. Can barely use it to make a call from outside the house and even when a call goes through and doesn't drop you only hear about 1 word out of 3. The other thing that mystifies me about all carriers is nobody promotes a phone that is a power house just as a phone. I would give up every feature that I never use just to get a phone that has good voice quality and good reception.

no problem here; works great, as does my wireless net access.

I have been using T-Mobile for about 7 years now. I've always had great reception and no dropped calls while in the city. I don't travel outside of town too much, but the few times I have, as long as I had some reception, I could maintain a connection.

I've been with Verizon about six years and have good coverage most everywhere I go in the country

As far as I'm concerned, Cingular / AT&T is useless here. I want to throw my phone at the TV when I see them talking about "No dropped calls" and such like that... there are too many times when I go literally three HOURS without a signal. Drops off at will, in the middle of a phone call, or not. Completely worthless in Wichita. WTF man?

Perfect service here. Calls, messaging and web. No complaints. Never fewer than 4 bars.

Never used anything but verizon. 0 dropped calls from Wichita to Colorado Springs. My only complaint is rural areas with analog networks don't permit texting, but I've yet to find a dead zone as far as calls are concerned.

poor reception, internet PCS rarely works, or kicks offline often.. very disapointing for the money spent.

Nearly perfect operation.

I have been with Verizon for about 5 years and use a 4 line family plan. Currently I have no problems with them. I make trips to Salina and McPherson every week and virtually never have a drop out. The reception is clear and the phone works fine. The reason I am on this site is because I am strongly considering the new Apple iPhone. I am a 22 year Apple Veteran and enthusiast. The comments here regarding Cingular are not very encouraging, though. (Verizon - Get with Apple.) Over the years Verizon has finally improved their billing system so you don't have to argue with them every other month any more... Their biggest problem that continues is the messaging system. I tell people to NEVER leave a timely message on my Verizon phone because it might be a week or more before I receive it. The message system is lousy.
