Only one spot in my apartment gets reception 3 bars, but as soon as I try to make a phone call, reception goes back to 1 or no bars. I feel like the phone is lying to me.

Verizon service works as it should. I get full reception all over the city. Sometimes even in the subway! My only complaint is their pricey data plan.

Cingular sucks! My husband and I are both on the plan and it's sometimes impossible to call each other. When I get off the 6 train on 86th, it takes up to 15 minutes to get reception. In my apartment service is never reliable. We had to get a land line because our cell phones rarely work. When we had AT&T we never had any problems. To get new phones we signed a 2 year contract when it changed to Cingular. We just waiting out the contract then we're switching to Verizon.

Most places in Manhattan the reception is great. In my apartment, mediocre at best. Enough to still make calls most of the time, but sometimes the service will just drop out for an hour for no discernable reason.

Just moved to a new apartment and the Cingular reception is terrible. Have to stand next to the window to get even a couple of bars. Going to switch.

On the street reception is ok, in my apartment I need to hang out the window to get a decent signal. Just upgraded to the 680 and reception is moderately better. I called Cingular and they admit their signal is "weak" in this area. They had no information for me about if and when new towers are going up.

Outside 145th St.'A' Train Station / 145th Street / St. Nicholas Ave., New York, NY 10031 Fri Dec 08, 2006

I often get out of the train and try to call my wife. I have to wait until I've walked almost to 145th and Convent (or 141st and Convent if I walk down St. Nicholas) to get any reception bars. It must be that the cell towers don't reach into that valley there, but it's annoying.

I almost never get reception inside (work, home or anywhere else). I generally have bars outside although voice quality is always terrible with frequent holes and lots of static and interference. Nice customer support people though.
