I constantly switch in and out of Verizon Wireless service and their "extended network." According to my phone, I have 1-3 bars in either service, but once I place a call, it drops. It happens inside, outside, and everywhere, even as I am driving. I do not hold service until I am either North of 100th Ave on 131 or South of Wayland on 131.

Used to get one bar standing in my driveway. I update using *228 monthly but it has gotten worse. I loose all signal going north on 30th (24th in Ottawa) until reaching approximately Byron Rd. Signal on 8th or Kenowa goes out by M-6. Worst help from Verizon of any of the services I've delt with. They're sorry but sometimes reception isn't good all over... ... .really? Can you hear me now?

Radio Shack told me that Dorr had good reception, which is not true, I am lucky to have one bar for up to a minute before it disappears. Whenever I call from there or call to a phone in my family plan located there, I get cut off and disconnected. Thank God they have a 14 day trial time, because I am returning the phones and am going to try another.
