Previous carriers I had got no service in Sixty Acres. AT&T seems to be the only one that works. I'm not crazy about the price and the lack of packages to chose from but it works.

My Verizon cell phone reception has been very poor since I moved here 2 years ago. I thought with the construction of the new cell phone tower on Manhattan St. next to the water tower the reception would go from poor to GREAT. That hasn't happened... don't understand it. I'm ready to give up on Verizon... how is reception in this area for other wireless carriers?

When I moved here 2 years ago, I had Verizon and the reception was awful. A lot of people had no problems with AT and T, so I switched to them. Well for a year or more the service has been worse than Verizon was. I don't understand how that can happen. Now which company?

Jackson has grown a lot in the last decade as cell phones have become more popular. It sucks that Jackson won't allow another cell tower because it's really needed.

AT&T reception is particularly bad at my apartment complex, Jackson Green, and at the Shop Rite on West County Line Rd.

The Post Office and Stop and Shop are both black holes when it comes to cell phone reception. It is a known practice to see patrons say their goodbyes on their cell phones prior to entering the shopping center where they will never be heard from again until checkout. I must make sure I have a plan of attack before engaging on my quest for groceries because calling back home to ask if we have milk is not an option. It is a shame that Verizon wireless would allow this to go on for so long while they try to portray a strong network. I say the truth is in the pudding, but just make sure you are not in the frozen food section when you get this revelation. You wont be able to dial out.

One or two bars at best. I had to purchase a microcell in order for my family to use cellphones in the house.

I have had Verizon for years waiting for cell towers in Jackson so we can have phone service like other towns. Apparently it is not happening anytime soon so I'm switching to another provider.My cell phone has no signal in most of Jackson and my battery drains out within an hour in my car searching for a signal. A total waste of money and not reliable

I get almost no phone reception inside and iffy reception outside. The odd thing is that I have no problem getting texts or emails at the same time as I am unable to hear anyone who calls me. I end up texting people after I am unable to hear them on the phone.

No problems here. I get better service here, and no dropped calls compared to Verizon. I'm glad I switched.

It takes 5 tries to just send a text message. I don't even try to make calls. I have to tell everyone to call my house phone. I switched to Verizon cause it was cheaper. I never had this problem with AT&T. Jackson really needs to let Verizon build a tower near county line road.

Like others in Jackson if I stand at the right location toward the front of my house or stand outside, tilt my head in the right direction, and think positive I may get a signal for a short while. I generally hate mobile phones because my experience is nothing like the image Verizon likes portray. People always say they can't hear me or I can't hear them, the sound quality is poor, and it always seems there is a high probability the call will be dropped.

All who visit our home must turn off their cell phones or risk a dead battery in just a few minutes. We get zero reception in our home.

If you have Verizon wireless and come into my neighbor don't expect to get a call or a text. Brookwood 3 in Jackson, NJ get no service at all. I have to walk around my house to get a signal.

Inside my house, you're guaranteed no coverage.. no matter what the model, carrier, or religion that you pray to for signal. Additional towers are needed, or that $250.00 internet repeater Verizon now sells

Calling Verizon doesn't help much, because they just tell you it's a poor reception area. I'd say in a 3 / 4 mile radius from Stop n Shop, I get no bars or no service. But the second I cross into Lakewood off county line rd... all my bars are there. I get nothing in my house, and most of the outside area.
