Outdoors in the woods, I get 5 bars. Service works great. Inside in my basement apartment I get 3 or 4 bars with excellent call quality. Fantastic service overall.

This service was Nextel premerger and it worked pretty well. After the merger, I get horrible reception outdoors and indoors. Callers to my phone frequently get "cannot locate the Nextel subscriber" message. Avoid at all costs

My iPhone gets horrible reception where I live (near 751 and Constitution Dr. in "The Forest" apartment complex). Cell signal bars come and go, and I have to walk around my apartment before I can find a signal. Inside the Fuqua School of Business at Duke, where I'm a student, I get NO reception at all. ATT / Cingular is very spotty throughout Durham. I get ok reception near Target and Wal-Mart and when driving in open space.

Dead spots all over area. Great reception throughout Durham though. Wish they would put another tower close by!

Constant drop outs 4 out of 5 calls either received or sent. Many instances of not getting any signal at all. There are two cell towers within 1 mile.

Constant Drop Outs on Incoming and Outgoing Calls. Anywhere from 1-4 bars and hearing about 1 out of 3 words. Called customer support but they did not offer any assistance.

Calls would typically sound fine for a few minutes, and then the voice cut-outs begin... and don't end. Calls to Verizon typically result in them saying, "Hmmm", try the *228 sequence again to reset your phone, or, "we sent a technician out to your area and he confirmed that you have a weak signal in your area.". Using an indoor signal booster with an antenna outside seemed to help a bit but you still occasionally get the voice cutouts.

After years of good reception, my phone no longer functions in Trinity Park on the Sprint network. The phone has two to four bars, but calls will not connect and none will come in either. All the Sprint reps I have called say their network is fine. My wife and I both have the same problem with different phones, so we know that it isn't our equipment. I have to set my phone on roam to make or receive a call anywhere around my house. When I drive over to 147, about 1 mile, it works perfectly.

Reception nearby is usually 3 bars outside with 1-2 bars inside. The service is acceptable between here and Hillsborough, NC with only a few localized spots of service drop.

Very poor reception ever since Cingular ceased using Suncom's Towers (late 2006). Cannot make calls from inside of buildings (houses), and half the time, calling from out of doors is a futile task. Cingular (AT&T) claims that a new tower will be open for service on Sept 1 that will correct this issue for the Grove Park area of Durham.
