We have used Verizon for over 6 years. about a month ago, reception at my house changed. 3 bars to 1 or none. Cannot use phone because you can hear but people cant hear you. They say that its a low coverage area and no date to improve. "Low coverage?????" Its right next to the summit and sandhills. I believe they are reducing power out put of the towers to save energy costs. I keep hearing of more and more people who had coverage but now can't use their phone in their home. There is no way you can have good service with the same provider then all of sudden bad coverage. They've changed something and they don't want customers to know. They will lose business and people will start using land or cable phone at home. Very dissapointing, I'm looking at changing. Contract was up last year.

Very poor reception. This is the 3rd phone we have had with verizon. We get one bar at best inside our home. There are no large buildings or hills to block signals. There is also a cell tower within a mile of our development. Verizon says they are aware of the problem, but offer no solution. I think they should provide customers with cell phone repeaters to boost signal.

Sometimes one bar, often none in my part of the subdivision (Southeast Columbia, near the VA Hospital). I just tested a Samsung A437 and a Nokia 6555 here in hopes of getting better reception in my house, but neither worked as well as my old Motorola, which barely works at all. Outside my neighborhood, AT&T (Cingular) reception is pretty good in this part of town, but it's pretty discouraging not to have cell service at home.

It's been this way for a year. Before that, I could actually use the phone in the house. Now, it's either no bars or one bar. Sometimes four or five bars will flicker, but it's just a flicker. CALL FAILED is what I get.

I can not make a call in my house and outside is not much better. Sprint customer for over 5 years, but no more. My contract is up and I am looking for better. Stay away from Sprint in Columbia unless you live under a tower...
