Love the reception and the you upgrade software yourself by dialing in feature but the cost of the service compared to my old plan with same carrier is insane. no dropped calls unless going west in HRBT(Tunnel).

Alltel really needs a more visible store round here so more people would consider them but their coverage is simply the best. I don't have any of the problems my friends have with reception. I've been using Alltel for the past 2 years and am about to get a new phone. But I wanted to write a review of my experience. And it's really a full signal all over Hampton. My best friend has Cingular and he has to borrow my phone all the time. When I try to think of the local hot spots, I get a full signal at Hampton U, at the high school too, at the mall, and Wal-mart. There's no problem areas I can think of and nowhere, not even indoors I can't make a call. If you want a good signal around here with calls that sound good go with Alltel.

Some dropping of calls but I have coverage within the house. As a cell phone is my only phone, that is important.

Pretty disgusted with AT&T's service over all, but more often than not, my service is just one bar... and I live close to a tower! Not to mention that today, I have NO service at all, and because I don't have a landline, I can't even call AT&T to find out what's up, and their site won't let me even email them: it says there's been an error each time I try. I can't wait until my contract is up in December and I can SWITCH providers!

Complete waste of money and time for the 2 yrs I had them. Both in VA and FL. Like the previous person said, they are excellent in NYC but here in VA you have to hold still like a scarecrow as you enter your house.

I was trying to find which provider would be better, but it seems that this area is just a poor place for cell phone reception regardless your provider! So crazy?! But I have AT and T and inside the house it sucks---little to no service! Outside it's great! I get no service at all inside the gym? I have no idea what's uP with that, but it's looking like I will stick with AT &T for now.

The "deeper" I get into the subdivision, the worse reception is. Have very little or no reception inside the house. Recently moved into the neighborhood and until then, had no problems with Sprint reception in Hampton. Will probably have to switch, but not sure which one offers best reception in area.

Hwy. 134 / First St., Hampton, VA 23665 Fri Aug 31, 2007

Bethel Manor Air Force housing is a black hole for Alltel. Inside the houses there is no reception on the ground floor. Reception on second floor and outside is below average for both connectivity and quality. I have been in contact with Tech Support several times about this problem and have found that the no / poor reception stems from Bethel Manor being equidistant between two towers that are over 4 miles apart. Alltel plans no fix for the problems in the foreseeable future. With my contract up I am going with Sprint, since Sprint has erected what's expected to be a digital service tower at the StoreMoore location on the corner of Hwy. 134 and Big Bethel Road. This tower is no more than 300m from the house. If you live in Bethel Manor, do not select Alltel as your carrier.

The phone is nice, but T-Mobile's reception is pretty poor OUTSIDE my house (1-2 bars). I'm VERY lucky to see 1 bar inside my house on the second floor.

Great phone, terrible network. Reception intermittent in and around my home. Somewhat better outside, but not significantly and not consistently. I can stand in a spot and get as much as two bars and go back to the same spot later and get no reception at all. I get solid reception at work (in the NASA / LAFB area), however. Phone is kept up to date with software / programming through Verizon's over the air feature, but with little effect. It's mostly a placebo to keep me paying the monthly fee, I think. I'd like to meet that "Can you hear me now?" idiot and... well, nevermind.

Olde Wythe section. Little to no recepition in the house with Sprint PCS, some limited to broken on the patio. My neighbor's Alltel phone seems to work much better. My neighbor's Verizion phone does not work any better than the Sprint.

Just switched from another provider and may be switching back. Have vast periods of time with NO coverage inside the house. At most, get 1-2 bars (far less than 1 / 2). Outside the subdivision, coverage is fine.
