Verizon sucks in my area! Dropped calls all the time, no service at my home, which is in the middle of town! Can't wait till my contract is up. AT&T here my family comes!

Verizon SUCKS and they can shove their early contract cancellation fees straight into the place where their heads are.

Been using Verizon Wireless for about 2 years now, previously used Cellular One (pre-AT&T). I can count the number of "dropped" calls that I was responsible for on 1 hand between 3 devices. Verizon's data services are unparalleled in the extended area. Between a Storm 1 and a Motorola Droid, the data coverage has really exceeded my expectations. I was getting 90 kb / s transfer speeds over the network in ELY, MN (by the Subway Sub Shop). I went to the Twins / Royals game Thursday; no problems the entire way down or back. I was able to use Skype Mobile App on my Android phone and send / receive calls for free over the 3G network. Very cool service i've been using on Verizon's network for a while now.

Completely suck! Had Unicell and it was ok and Verizon took over and they SUCK! My friend has AT&T (used to have Cell One) way better phones and gets signal everywhere. I also travel to the brainerd Lakes Area and they are so spotty and my friend who has AT&T can talk the whole way. I can't wait to switch!

By far the WORST cell company I have had in all aspects!

Lots of hype on the EVDO REVa capabilities. Got it because I wanted to use it as a modem tether to laptop for internet. I thought my first LG Dare was not functioning properly, but now the 2nd does the same- no bars inside with a clear view of the lake. On the lake ice-fishing, I called my neighbor fishing next to me; 1 bar. He said he heard about 1 / 3 of what I said and hung up on me. With a 3 year old phone and ATT service, he gets 4 bars inside my house not near the windows. I am on a 30 day trial period and will probably go back to the store to try another phone; probably not an LG dumb phone. If that does not work, its time to try some other carrier.

From intersection of county roads 44 and 37 to and past Pequaywan Lake to county 16 near Fairbanks no coverage. Occasional one bar settings en route but no service.

Crappy reception in lakeside, piedmont hts, north of town, along I-35, the Hwy. 210 corridor, etc. It is great at Ground Round next to their building by Target. Contract up 12 / 23 / 07. Will not renew. Waiting to see what shakes out with the Cell One / ATT merger. If we get Cell One coverage and ATT toys, I'm in. Cell One coverage fantastic in Hawthorne / Lake Nebagamon area per Mother-In-Law.

I have had no success with cellular one in the areas off the major highways, very poor in Two Harbors. Verizon is the most reliable for anywhere off Hwy. 2 or anywhere "out in the boonies." Even though the reception still isn't great, it's the only carrier I know of that sustains bars at our house.

Verizon Wireless - Very expensive for little service or support. Retail level not knowledable on products, they only are about making the service and then like their calls, the service drops

No or very limited reception along Calvary Ave., starting at Woodland Ave. to Howard Gnesen, south on Howard Gnesen Rd. to Arrowhead Rd. A large part of this area is in the city of Duluth.

I get no reception inside my house-only 2 bars of analog (which you cannot call or receive calls) and so I can get 1 bar of 1x when I step outside onto my deck, but basically the area out here north of Duluth is somewhat patchy, but not too bad. Around Duluth the reception is fine however.

Verizon is greatest coverage, no roaming charges, and signal strength stays at the maximum! My service is actually orginally from Montana, but we visit our families down there and the coverage and signal strenght were so great at all time. And I never got any roaming charges, since I'm still under wtihin American Choice Network coverage area all over place!
