Marsh Hen Dr., Wilmington, NC 28409 Tue Oct 16, 2007

I'm at the very end of Marsh Hen Drive, and have very poor Verizon signal inside the home. It often picks up what is likely an Alltel antenna. Verizon says there'll be no new towers in our area and even offered to terminate the contract if I wished to switch to another carrier, but no others usually work here either. Ah, well. Forget about mobile phone at home, I guess!

Did a NExtel Cellular Tower go down from the Power Outage we had a few days ago. My work gives cell phone out for emergencies, and out of 150 cell phones, no of them are getting reception please help...

I HATE Verizon... Just canceled and was let out of contract due to "outage" in area... that could not be resolved... has been going on for MONTHS! They should not sell service here they can not DELIVER... If you are experiencing same I suggest you call and complain... then ask for rebate..I asked for the 3 weeks I could not get service... they agreed but when they told me they do not know when it would be fixed I flipped... .and they now agree to let me out of the contract! "They want me to be HAPPY" I recommend you all do the SAME DUMP VERIZON! BE HAPPY!

Horrible reception in my apartment, multiple dropped calls. Have to go outside to reliably make a call. Verizon refused to let me out of the contract. No complaints with Verizon prior to moving to Wilmington. Don't know where to go next. UScellular?

Sprint works fine all over town, even on long trips. It just sucks in my house. I have to walk outside most of the time and I get random voicemail when it feels like it.

Verizon Wireless sucks in where I am at Mayfair. I get maybe 1 bar at best and often I don't get calls, lots of dropped calls and often I get the NO SERVICE message on my phone. I went the the Verizon store on Oleander to see what was up and the dude told me that there will be 20 new towers put up in the next year. I think that's BS. My buddy who lives in the same apartment complex just switched from Verizon to Sprint told me it works great in his apartment and all over Wilmington.

I get great reception everywhere in town with Alltel except at my apt complex, birchwood park. It might be the radio station nearby, I dont know. but its pretty terrible here at my apt from the moment I pull into the parking lot.

I live on the Intracoastal so only Alltel and Verizon have a signal here in this location. Though the other day a friend who had a new Cingular phone came by, and he had a 1-2 bar signal; in the past Cingular had no signal here. T-Mobile, Sprint and US Cellular have no signal. Last year I had Alltel, but when I travelled to NYC I only got an analog signal in a lot of places so I switched to Verizon.
