Verizon wireless reception is inconsistant. Signal strength fluctuates widely from poor to none whatsoever. And before you say it, no, it isn't due to the subway passing or any other "obvious" reason other than poor quality service. I thought things would change when upgrading from my five year old LG 8600 to iPhone 4S. It has in fact gotten better but only minimally. I can't imagine how bad other service providers are if Verizon consistently rates #1 in the media with such terrible service. In a similar vein, Verizon had no capability of providing DSL to my phone exchange until about two years ago. You'd think that I lived in some rural area.

1 bar in my neighborhood 3 on a good day. If I'm not on wifi I can't do anything. Calls drop, data is slow. I wish they would stop bragging about how good their service is on tv.

Bars show on my screen, but reception is spotty. Looking at the map of antennas, I can see why! There are very few locations beyond Park Slope. I am done with ATT, after 12 years and three phones. I cannot imagine why anyone would buy a smartphone and use ATT service. Enough, already!

Downtown Brooklyn, a place with 2.2 million people, and no service. Regularly, I have four to five bars but, between Third Ave and Fifth Ave, from at least Bergen St.to Schermerhorn Street, no data service and constant dropped calls-- if any calls get through in the first place. Buying the iPhone 4s and will NOT be sticking with AT&T.

We have four phones on a Verizon Wireless account. As such, our monthly bill hovers around $200. I wouldn't even mind the expense, but we have been experiencing extremely poor reception and dropped calls since the Spring of 2011. At first, I thought is was my new HTC Thunderbolt, but then my wife said the same happens to the remaining three phones. I am at the point where I will take the loss just to get out my Verizon contract, but what carrier provides reliable service to Bay Ridge, BK?

About two months ago, I finally made the switch from my 10+ year old T-Mobile phone (battery lasted almost two weeks, never dropped a single call) to one of the newest-latest when I realized I need Google Maps. How AT&T can even call itself a phone carrier, in the largest city in this country, is an outrage. I do not get reception in my house. On the top floor. With windows on all sides. And a skylight. AND THREE BARS. No incoming, no outgoing, messages come back hours later with the little "yield sign" telling me they were never sent. One day, after driving down to Red Hook and Ikea all day, I had four voicemails pop up around 8pm, FROM THE DAY BEFORE. I cannot get off this network soon enough. Shame on you, AT&T, sending me a "replacement" (read: refurb) phone, telling me "towers are down and being repaired" and so on and so forth. This is the largest city in the country. Get your act together, or charge less, or both, because you're going to lose as many customers as I can get in touch with... on a different network, believe you me. Sick.

I get NO service for most of that block and surrounding blocks north and south. It sometimes appears to have service but it drops calls within a few seconds. Since the phone is constantly searching for service, the battery drains even more quickly than a normal Curve (which is bad.)

The service at my house is almost nonexistent with average of 2 bars at most. My office in Long Island City is even worse. My coworkers and I often have to go outside to even place a call as the phone is unable to get a signal and complete any calls. I am not even sure how to explain and validate to AT&T that the two places I spend 90% of my time in have no cellular service. How long AT&T can get away with this?

Well i've had Verizon as a carrier since 2003 and service has been gotten worse. I used to get decent signal (4-bars), but lately I get 1-bar and my battery drains in a couple of minutes when in use. Its not limited to Verizon either. I've tested Boost Mobile and T-Mobile and they all get 1-2 bars unless i'm in the middle of the street. In doors? Nada, forget it! Regardless of the phone model used. Note:there have been new building constructions around me, so I assume the network is slowly getting bogged down with the growing population...

5 bars most times indoors, very occasionally 4. Have yet to use phone more than a half-mile away, so it may just be that I'm located close to a tower.

I am so sick of the AT&T iphone situation in Greenpoint. It's isolating and infuriating. I've had an iphone for 3 years living in Manhattan with no problems. I just bought the new one right before moving to Greenpoint and now feel like I've been robbed. Nothing could be worse than this. I will try to call 10 times before a call will go through just for it to get dropped another 5 times within a 10 minute conversation. Hardly anyone's calls come through. I get voice messages hours later. I've contacted AT&T at least half a dozen times to complain and the customer service is always polite and apologetic but worthless. I'm through. Anyone want a brand new, piece of s#!t iphone?

3G service is generally non existent from my home. Phone calls are frequently dropped. A T and T works perfectly here. Clearly, there is a need to boost the signal. I doubt whether we will renew with Verizon. Customer support is useless and offers no solutions. A smartphone should be an asset, not a source of frustration. It seems only the customer has an obligation to honor the contract with Verizon. Verizon's responsibility seems limited to ensuring that the steep monthly payments are received.

House / Halsey Street / Arlington Place, Brooklyn, NY 11216 Sun Feb 13, 2011

Sprint reception in the 11216 area around Halsey St.and Arlington Place is NO RECEPTION to POOR. I have lost several calls while talking also if there are no signals the calls will not go through so the cell phone will not ring. I also have a Sprint Smartcard to gain access to the internet... .need I say the reception for the Smartcard is the poorest. If there is no service the signal percentage will say 10 percent which is not enough to view anything. Pages will constantly load not at all or slowly. I have been constantly knocked off line. Sprint service is lously! When I contact Customer Service or Advanced Technical Support I am always being told that Sprint is putting up new towers so the signal should be strong once this happens. Will its been over a year and still the signal is a hot mess. I'm paying for service that I do not receive. When I spoke to Advance Technical Support I was told I could speak to a manager, after waiting on the phone for a little over 15 minutes the call was lost and no one called me back. Someone should have called because I stated to the tech that my poor to none reception was causing dropped calls. Again, Sprint service is LOUSLY! No one at Sprint shows any interest in getting this problem solved but have a bill due and Sprint will text, email you to get what is do to Sprint. I we use service and do not pay it called Theft of Service... what it called when we customers pay and we get no service???ANOTHER UNHAPPY PREMIERE CUSTOMER.
