No reception in Hedgemoor area. Most of the time, no reception around Wallace Rd. No reception on Goodlett near Walnut Grove. Little or no coverage around White Station / Park area. Verizon is very spotty around east Memphis--lots of dropped calls. My hubby has At&T and has great service.

I often have no reception in my living room, and also in many places throughout the city. I use my phone for work (which I do mainly from my car), so will be glad when my contract is up.

I got horrible reception on Mus Island. So much so that I paid the $10 extra a month for roaming and set my phone on automatic roaming. 9 times out of 10 I was using other carrier's towers. In the end, Sprint ended up having to pay these companies so often that they asked us (I was on a family plan with people in Ohio) to switch carriers before the end of our 2 yr contract.

Wish iPhone was available through Verizon, but after reading how bad AT&T coverage is, I will stick to my non iPhone verizon. I love verizon, just do not like their hardware selection.

Customer service with T-Mobile is the worst I have every encountered. Updating to a new handset but keeping the same telephone number proved impossible... four months later still being billed for service NEVER ACTIVATED. Dropped number has cost $1000s in lost business in the meantime.

I show a lot of bars - but have a lot of dropped calls - (a lot) - and alot of error in connection or Net work busy. I have had good service for about 14 years but poor quality in last several months with no explanation. I use for business and it is not working - am having to look for alternative.

I have called ATT and called and called and called. I work at home so this is a critical problem for me. After threatening to take full page ad in the local newspaper, ATT finally sent a tech around who confirmed that there was no service from my driveway. ATT's way of placating me was to give me a one-time $50 refund -- my cell phone bill averages $400+ per month. They PROMISED it was being fixed within a three month period. THAT WAS TWO YEARS AGO AND STILL NO IMPROVEMENT. It is the bill I hate to pay the most.

AT&T service terrible. Business contract; called them. They told us they did not have enough subscribers in the area to upgrade their (poor) service. Not willing to consider that an area with 3 hospitals, 2 nursing schools, optics school, medical school, high school, and about 6 medical office buildings (average 6 stories per) wouldn't have many residents, but lots of transient subscribers. Had to switch to Sprint, which works reasonably, or Verizon (works well).

Almost every call drops out at this location. This is a terrible area for Sprint. Very little trouble in other parts of city or country that we visit.

I love Verizon. It is the only consistent service available in the Shelby Forest area, which is fairly rural. Of course a good phone helps. My only problem is reception in my den which has a metal roof. Byt compared to the service provided by Cingular, I'll deal with it. One of my brothers has Cellular South and doesn't even get a signal at all.

The worst reception since the take over of ATT - In my house usually 1 bar - at work 1 bar - not happy and I just upgraded the phones - thought that might help - it has not. Before the take over I was 4 bars at work and most often at least 3 bars in the house
