good coverage most of the time. 5 bars in every part of my house. sometimes not as great in big stores like kohls, but I think that might be typical of lots of carriers

Bad reception, poor call quality and some dropped calls. ATT signal is very bad in this area

I used to get great service - early 2006 - now I only get 2 bars max and difficulty with reception. Not too many dropped calls just can't hear them or they can't hear me.

Verizon reports as known trouble spot with no ETA on fixing

Here is a happy Verizon customer! I had trouble with Cingular in my office in the Renaissance Center, and switched to Verizon two years ago. I am renewing my contract next month.

No problems unless in a "newer basement". strange I know but this is my experience. I live in a 1972 home in the basement and NEVER have any problems. I switched FROM Verizon for this reason.

I never could use my phon in this area. Cingular network here is very bad.

Typically, I get two bars, within my home, south of 7 Mile, East of Beech. There is a fairly new tower, in the park, along Pickford, by my receiption sucks. I have to stand outside to get any reception, which isn't always practical. My boyfriend has a different model of Samsung, also through Cingular, and just traded a Nokia in, for that one... his reception sucks. My brother has a Samsung, though T-Mobile and also can't get reception within my house.

I suffered with very poor reception for a couple of years at this location using my Motorola flip phone. Dropouts occurred so often I avoided using it. When I got a Sanyo phone dropouts were eliminated. Lesson? Same service, different brand / model phones have VERY DIFFERENT performance!
