The reception in Briarcreek Development is average to good. 3G coverage is spotty at times. Most times 4 to 5 bars, voice service is good, data transfer is usually not 3G. Nextel works very well in this area, do in part, to a tower being close. ATT has upgraded their coverage and it works well through the area, Austin, Elgin, Pflugerville, Round Rock, and Manor. Worth the extra cost. Nextel coverage is good, not the Sprint network coverage.

Reception inside the house is zero. Outside the house is between one bar and zero. I would not recommend Verizon to anyone in Manor, Texas.

Verizon Wireless as usual sucks. Horrible Reception. Dropped calls all day. Have several phones on the account so it's not just one phone and they can't keep a signal if they tried. Works sometimes in one room of the house and no service in the next. They of course claim everything is fine. Verizon also can't keep a bill straight if they tried. They overbill, refuse to fix things and suck money endlessly. Their "Worry Free Guarantee" also is a bunch of bul&** too. Customer Service is also a joke with rude reps. Verizon also doesn't offer ONE SINGLE feature that other companies offer. Who cares about "IN" Calling when it's only to their network? No reasonable nights and weekends, no free incoming, no favorite 5 or 10 friends. Zero, Zip. Nextel and Sprint giving you free incoming or free incoming and outgoing to EVERYBODY and ALL phone numbers if you choose the right plan. Go with the Sprint or Nextel Unlimited calling plans for the same price that Verizon charges for a low amount of minutes. Can't go wrong. Great service with Sprint / Nextel. Even Cingular is better then Verizon. It's worth paying the termination fees to stop dealing with a company that's not even competitive.

If we want to make a call, we have to use the land-line. Cingular is useless! The connection (if it happens) is fuzzy. Hearing the party on the other end is hopeless inside the house. The front porch isn't much better. What lousy, lousy service!
