I usually always get atleast 2-4 Bars Inside Or On The Porch... As For The Woods A From The andd In The Garage (50 Ft From The House) I Get 0-2 Bars

I've actually used a few different phones through the years with U.S. Cellular; They all performed equally. I tried phones from four different providers before finding U.S. Cellular; I couldn't get a signal even outside my home from the first four (sorry, after all these years I can't recall who the four were). I had never heard of U.S. Cellular before that time, but was growing desperate. The first thing I noticed was that I had a signal when I got out of my car at home. The second thing was that after entering my home I no longer had a signal. Overall it's sometimes possible to hold a conversation inside; other times I have to exit the house (and sit in the car if it's raining!). I have to add that I have ALWAYS had a signal anywhere else I can think of. Also, visiting friends of mine or neighbors DON'T get a signal here All of this is pretty much moot now; I have unlimited long distance 24 / 7 Nationwide plus ten calling features after switching my land line to my cable company, and it costs a lot less than what the first land line had been charging me just to have a phone on the wall, no nothing. I have never had a serious problem with U.S.Cellular. Their insurance carrier raised my deductible from $35.00 to $50.00 after I lost my first phone and filed a claim. And the next time I needed a replacement the first two I was sent had problems and had to be returned. But that's not U.S.Cellular, it's the carrier they use.

I have been forced to become Verizon. With Alltel, there were no problems. Since the Verizon takeover was finalized, my reception has been poor, and customer service in relation to the problem worse. I used to have 4 bars at my home and now mostly two to occasionally three. Not happy.

It does not work well past the new walmart on 53 or up 258 TERRIBLE service if you get any at all

was told I would have good service, now still under contract, can not wait for 2 yr to end so can go back to us cellular. UsCellular had best reception and no dropped calls even on bases where Alltel stunk. Tech said I was in iffy spot, sorry ever changed. I learned an expensive lesson, stick with good service which helps you succeed in what you need in services.

in the house just forget about it you dont get signal, but when you walk out the front door you get 1 bar maybe 2 if your lucky.. the company told me its because I live a mile away from a tower. theres supposed to be a tower on blue creek which I get great signal at our friends house who lives on blue creek. I also get really good signal on both bases. I also travel from flordia to illinois and I get great signal while traveling too. illinois does not have Alltel but I get great signal at my mothers house. I really like Alltel and dont want to switch companys..

I used US Cellular for a few years had no problems with services. I switched over to Alltel and the reception is so bad that I get no reception inside and have to walk around outside to get any kind of receptions and then it is iffy. The thing that gets me is I live within seeing distance of one of their towers. I am totally dissappointed with the services tho this is second phone I am trying and that gets expensive. Same thing goes for company I work with, many dropped calls, three guys can be working beside each other and the crews have to call each of us just to see who's is working so they can relay a message.. This is foolish. I think they need do something with the towers or reception..

I switched from US Cellular to Cingular. Not a good move. Calls drop while traveling on 17 south of Jacksonville and no bars in Rock Creek where we live. I was told it is the only plan to have while traveling... the person that told me must not travel. I will be changing again even though it will be costly.

no reception at the house gotta go a mile down the road to use the phone. Alltel is best for this place. Cingular sais they are putting in new towers here but they say that everytime

When it was suncom I got a minimum 3bars inside and outside. Since T-Mobile took over I get NOTHING... .absolutely sucks... im paying for two lines that we cant use until we get to the scotchman on 53... no service in verona or haws run / southwest. T-Mobile claims I should have 1-2 bars... yea right.. they dont even have any kind of contracts in place with other wireless companies so that we can roam off other towers to have service... ..I have been with this company for 5years and was not disatisfied til T-Mobile took over..I will def be switching companies come february. How can a company take over another company but not take over their towers? kinda pointless!
