My friends have Sprint and Verizon and they have NO Signal... I switched from Nextel and it is the best thing I ever did!

Always 5 strong bars, indoors and out. In the Concourse (underground), they have repeaters set up, so signal strength is still pretty good (a few dead spots, but move 5 paces, and you'll be back in service).

I rarely go below 3 bars in this area. Indoors, outdoors, and even in basements I seem to get a strong and stable signal.

I have never been unable to make or recieve a call with Verizon Wireless. I cancelled my Nextel service and switched to Verizon. I couldn't even call people in my own house with Nextel. I even get reception in the Adirondacks! (Past the usal cut-off of exit 22) I don't think I'll ever get rid of Verizon.

Full bar everywhere I go in Albany including most places in the Capital District. Only places that I don't have a full signal. Troy: just under full. Clifton Park: 3 bars. Inside the mall: 1 bar. Cohoes: 1 bar.

I'd rate the reception a 5 except that in the middle of a call, reception drops from 5 bars to none and the signal is lost. Anteneas are within sight on the water tower, however, you will have your calls dropped when it gets busy. Forget GPRS data calls after 11:45am, tower gets busy and ignores data connections.

I often have no reception at my house or, when I get it, the calls are often dropped. Will drop Verizon soon. Anyone suggest a better carrier?

Almost never get reception in my house. Sometimes outside we do. I looked up our address on the T-Mobile website and according to their map we should get good reception. Makes me wonder if I can trust any of these maps for other companies. I just want a cell phone that works at home! Also doesn't work well in malls and stores, but a lot of people have that problem.
