Even though Verizon's coverage map shows strong digital coverage for my location, I am lucky to have it occasionally and only temporarily get as high as two bars. Most of the time it's at one, and that is only if I sit in the bathroom floor. Taking the phone outside doesn't help. Dropped calls are the norm.

Several people in this area complain about the same problem. Full service until you dial a number. Then once someone answers on the other end the service drops to one bar or NO SERVICE. Over and over again. I can lay my phone on my desk and watch it cycle from no bars to full bars. Does the tower have an oscillate button??? Whats going on? I have about a 25% success rate when I make or take a call but I pay 100% on the bill. Not fair. My business is suffering! Customers will simply call someone else.

Have Cingular and it gets no reception at my home or anywhere beyone burgin express. Have friends from out of town that have Cingular and sometimes get service but mostly it is non-exsistent. Do not get Cingular if you are on the lake.

I have had them all and Nextel is the best. Cell One is ok, Cingular is horrible. T-Mobile isn't good for service but they have great customer care. If your in Harrodsburg get Nextel!

Use to have excellent service... now can drop calls without moving an inch... two difference Cingular reps have told me the V180 is "crap". Will not try Motorola again.

New Treo reception is terrible. Cannot talk at home unless outside and then very iffy. Dropped calls, missed calls, people I talk to say phone has high level of noise. Old Sanyo 8100 had great reception. Even bought external antenna but no help.

Dropped Calls and Dropped direct connect. Do not waste your time and money with nextel. It is going to cost $200 per phone for my wife and I to cancel. Nextel charges way to much for service that usually doesn't work well in any building. Customer service says that the phones were designed for business use and not for home use. Then why do they sell them to non-business people? Do business people never go home? Do they ever go into a building? Don't get trapped by this phone company!
