If I am in a building, there is no reception at all, if you come outside, it still keeps searching for the reception for sometime(like 5 mins) before it gets it

I'm in an apt. on the second floor and get 1 or no bars for signal strength. Calls are dropped all the time. I never get text messages or VM until later that day. Terrible!

Anywhere outside reception is perfect. Inside my apartment (3rd floor) I usually get 3 to 4 bars. I only get one bar in the In the basement (underground garage); however, the reception is still clear (static free). I have been to the west-coast with the phone and have been happy with the reception pretty much everywhere. There are some zones in which there is no reception, but that holds true for any cell provider. I have tried out all cell providers (14-day free trials) and selected CINGULAR (now AT&T) as having the most clear connection with the least dropped calls (none so far). It also provides the most convenient (for me) nationwide coverage. I have had CINGULAR service for 2.5 years now and I am happy with the value and service (friendly customer service).

I do not get any signal in my ground floor apt. Even if I do, it drops in the middle of the call. I need to stand by a window to get atleast a couple of minutes. However it works pretty well when outside.

att always tells me I will get service I will get service but it has been way way to long I have frends that have verison and they make calls in my basement and ill be lucky if I get a call outside ill be lucky if I can send a text message

Always many dropouts in every call.

Just moved to Herndon from Tyson's Corner which had perfect reception. Now i'm getting the cold shoulder from friends who think i'm not responding to their texts or returning their phone calls (which I never even knew I received) :( This area sucks in my eyes. I just happen to have my computer in the basement where I use to bring my cell phone, but not anymore. Now I have to leave it in the kitchen and run upstairs to answer it. Trust me, this is better than never knowing that you had a call in the first place. I want the new iphone coming out in june, but by the looks of AT&T's service in Herndon... i'll just have to wait till apple and Verizon make a deal... Not fair :(

Drops on most all calls. No service works well here. It really sucks when you have to pay so much for the service plans and get this kinda service at home.

Little to no service in this area VZ seems slightly better

Sprint is terrible within two miles of this area.

Great coverage here... even inside buildings.

Excellent coverage right at the county line on Rock Hill Rd.in Herndon.

We're in a whole. Can't find good service here.

Reception iffy. Frequently calls get dropped. Also get messages, but the phone never rings and it doesn't show up as a missed call. Sprint was bad also.

Generally good signal indoors and out, but drops frequently

Frequently miss calls (I get voice mails when the phone never even rang) and calls will drop in the middle of a conversation. I get from 1 to 3 bars on my phone, but coverage is very inconsistent at my residence and at my workplace (also in Herndon)and the call will likely drop unless I stand in one place, stand near a window, or stand outside. Coverage near clocktower plaza is also pretty bad. I'm switching to Cingular and getting a Treo650.

Verizon Wireless coverage on this block STINKS! We have several Verizon phones that work well all over the area, EXCEPT AT OUR HOUSE AND IN OUR YARD. This neighborhood is like a digital "Black Hole" and Verizon Wireless will do nothing to fix it, despite numerous calls and emails.

2 bars inside house on 1st floor and basement; 3 bars on 2nd floor; 4 bars outside; rarely drop a call with this phone - anywhere. Want to purchase a new phone but so far I'm unable to identify a flip phone with superior reception that does 'not' have a camera (cameras are not allowed in govt. or govt-contractor facilities). No connectivity problems with my very old phone along Wiehle Ave. or near Herndon High School as reported by other people.

This phone is far worse than the Nokia phones I have had.

Total waste of a cell phone - stuck for two year contract with Verzon completely unsympathetic. No reception in home. Constant dropped calls in area.
