Was good until November 3 / Now I cant even make a telephone call or send text messages even with 3-4 bars showing. Maybe something has broken / failed out here. Sucks!

All I can say is horrible. Being a neighbor of the FCC does not help and living in 3 story townhome and constantly pressing my phone to the window to get a bar to make a call. The signal is still poor even outside of my house.

175 / I95, Columbia, MD 21045 Sat Aug 25, 2007

I get dropped calls on on I95 crossing 695 crossing 32 and on 495 going toward I95. One time I was at my condo close to 175 and got a call I couldn't return. My attempt to call back failed 6 times before I gave up and used my home phone

Verizon is pretty good for this area... except in my home. Horrible reception. My roommate has TMobile and it has much better reception in the area and says he has experienced no problems in Maryland in general (and even got reception when we were in rural Mexico). So I am probably going to switch this month.
