I've had Verizon Wireless for over a year now and I haven't seen it go below 4 bars anywhere in Columbus. The only dropped calls I've experienced so far were phone related. Definitely amazing service that can't be beat.
Verizon and Cingular are the only two who work in this area of Columbus both outside and inside buildings. I can even use my phone in the basement of my residence. Sprint and Nextel struggle to get 2 bars and hold calls even if I go outside. Beware of them if you live in the OTE area in this bubble area that has 4 Sprint towers within a mile of it!
Signal drops from 4 or 5 bars to 0 randomly, leading to most calls getting dropped at some point. Numerous dead spots throughout Columbus. Terrible customer service, with them trying to convince me to get a new phone (this is my fourth phone with them). I will be switching to Verizon when this god-awful contract is up in a few months.
dropped calls abound and can hardly hold a conversation in my home. I switched from Verizon because they constantly billed me correctly but they had a good signal.
In my apartment (the Commons on Kinnear) I have to stand perfectly still by the window to get any signal. The only reason I haven't switched to another carrier is because my parents are paying for my phone and I'm cheap. Reception in most other areas is passable.
