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!

Never dropped a call since I've had my phone / plan from summer 2000. Works even in my basement where Sprint and T-Mobile don't. I also am able to use it from inside my Dearborn, MI 48124 office building where other carriers had / have trouble. I have a cell phone mainly for emergencies - what's a mobile phone good for if you cannot get a signal? Other than the price, Verizon works for me.

I used to have a lot of dropped calls in my house. But they are all gone ever since I got my 4900 which is widely known as a phone with the best reception. Now that this 4900 is beaten up, its antenna falling off, I don't know what phone to chose any more. Some said the replacement 4920 isn't nearly as good.

Verizon Wireless has never given me a problem! We got away from AT&T before Cingular Ruined them. Billing is a little confusing.

Was good 2 yrs ago (switched from Sprint). Now it blows. Perhaps Verizon cannot handle the new call volumes. I will switch again when the contract ends.

There is very little reception. When I do make calls, I experiance at least two dropped calls per conversation. T-Mobile claims that they have "excellent" reception. NO evidence of this.

With a perfect signal, I get terrible voice reception. My calls, whether placed or recieved seem to be scrambled. There are at least a dozen people on our floor that have terrible service. If you are downtown and are either ATT or Cingular, you're gambling with your calls. Cingular has shown little to no concern in my numerous efforts to get this resolved. They would rather charge me hundreds of dollars and move me from ATT to Cingular to see if this resolves the problem. Looks like after many years of being a happy ATT customer, I'm headed to Verizon!

I got unlucky and moved into a house where the reception for Cingular is completely unacceptable. There seems to be a dead spot in this area, and I live smack dab in the middle of it. I am now stuck in a contract with a phone that I cannot even use.
