reception is very spotty. in household, display says 5 bars mostly on second floor, but once you try to make a call, it drops to nothing, and stays there. also cant receive calls half the time. complain to at&t! if enough people do, they'll try to do something for our town.

Reception is excellent. Usually 5 out of 6 bars on my phone, or full bars. Never have any dropped calls, and calls are crystal clear.

The phone shows it's fully charged, but every time I try to make a call from work it's dropped. I was told to dial *228 and the phone would "re-program" itself to pick up new towers, I tried to do that from home (Marlton zip 08053) and I guess it worked; but when I tried to make a call from work (Mt. Laurel zip 08054) it was dropped, so I tried to do the *228 thing from work and... . the call was dropped! I will say it keeps time wonderfully, but I already have a watch and I didn't sign up for this to tell time!

Never had an issue with service. / Its a bit spotty in my basement, but any cellphone would be. Cellphone services is still just radio signals. I'ave never know any company to be 100% in the area - even Verizon... ..

Traveling on Rt.38 towards Mount Holly, I get a full Cingular signal. Once I cross Hartford Road, My signal degrades rather quickly. Once I reach the Centerton and Creek Rd.Intersection heading into Moorestown, the signal drops drastically. I had AT&T Wireless up until a month ago and received a full signal on the service which I thought was also Cingular (with the ATTWS-CIngular merger / buyout). I hope the coverage gets better. Cingular service is great on a full or near-full signal. Once the Cingular signal drops, the reception is very inconsistent to the point where at 2 bars you would think that the reception would be stable, but fades in and out. Use the Cingular return policy wisely. Do thorough testing if you go ti Cingular.

Nextel stinks. My phone craps out in the same spot everytime I drive through this area. Its is a stretch of road from Rt. 70, Cooper Landing, Chapel, and King's Highway. The service vanishes and may not even come back when I get to my home in Mt. Laurel.

in and out many dropped calls - wife used older Nokia and has no problems

Reception is lousy, many dead areas. Doesn't work at all within my house.

This is considered a dead zone for me. My friend has Nextel and get excellent service. I don't want to switch but I have limited options.
