Worst cell reception I've ever had. Can't stand still and talk without signal dropping off. I'm switching to Verizon ASAP!

in my house it drops off, some calls are lost and one some days I get a better signal overall it sux out here in the sticks

I used to have Nextel I paid them a buch of money every month for 5 years for basically nothing. I have been with Cingular for a little over a year now. I live right off of the watershed, Liberty Reservoir and the forest that surrounds it are in my backyard. to add insult to injury I live at the bottom of a valley. Basically my house is a black-hole when it comes to cell phone service. Throughout the years no cellular service's towers have been able to produce a signal at my house, except for Cingular. I was going to make the switch for that reason alone. And Like everyone has stated before, Cingular gets excellent reception at The Home Depot here in Eldersburg. I am a former employee of that store and the fact that Cingular's reception was so good there as well I knew that my search for the "Best Mobile Service in Eldersburg" was over! So if you live on or near the watershed and spend lots of time in The Home Depot or Eldersburg for that matter Cingular is the Cellular Service for you!

Heard many rumors on this provider yet my experience over a period of 2 months now has been excellent! I have reception everywhere from home in Sykesville MD to work in Catonsville and everywhere in between down I-70. They're the first to put a tower up for Main St.in Sykesville too as there's no reception from ANY provider down there really strong or if at all. T-Mobile is full power there now.

Reception is good outside and in the house. Some drop off in stores especially Home Depot - Eldersburg where phone is unusable.

Boy did I get a surprise today! I was able to walk around *inside* the Home Depot in Eldersburg and maintain a signal of 3-4 bars on my Cingular phone with great voice clarity and no dropouts. I'm certainly glad I dropped Verizon for Cingular. My Verizon phone (LG VX6000) and all my prior phones on Verizon had no service at all inside the store: you had to walk outside into their garden section to get *maybe* 1-2 bars with voice dropouts! Cingular service all around the Eldersburg area is near perfect!

Having been with Verizon for years, I just switched to Cingular. At least at or near my house and around the Liberty Reservoir area in Eldersburg / Sykesville, Cingular is giving me a much better signal with no dropouts. Verizon is terrible in this area.
