Reception gets worse the farther in the subdivision you go. Can hold a conversation up 95 onto sliding hill but once you make the turn... .goodbye. At home, nothing on the first floor, some success outside and 2nd floor. Really didn't have these issues until 1 / 1 / 09 - "maybe tower contract ran out"? Battery consumption has jumped as well.

This is becoming a heavily populated area, but my calls get dropped all the time. Why can't we get another Verizon tower out here? It's ridiculous. I get great coverage everywhere else arround the Greater Richmond area, but not at my house where I have a home office.

The phone usually rings but calls get dropped all the time. I feel like I'm in one of those stupid commercials... .'you want meat on a plate?'

While there is coverage on the periphery of the Kings Charter subdivision, most of the subdivision has very poor T-Mobile coverage. In most cases, calls have to be made from outside the house and even then with deliberate positioning of the phone to achieve a decent connection.

I live in a large established subdivision and get virtually no reception at home. I work in northern Hanover and reception varies from zero to 4 bars. Reception was great when I lived in Henrico. According to a Cingular rep, they're working on it but Mville limits installation of new towers. I'll probably switch carriers soon, maybe to Alltel.

Even with bars, frequently the call drops. I have to move around outside of my house in the yard to get any reception. Not very good when I work from home and need the number accessible. I've tried other services such as Verizon and although it is similar, none are sufficient in this area.

Most of the time you have to go outside on the deck and stand on one leg, but have gotten reception inside.
