Cell signal fluctuated between 0 and 2 bars, but still couldn't connect a call in this area. Very poor reception for a company claiming to have the best coverage!

Rarely have cell phone reception and even then it's usually only one bar. Calls to my cell frequently go straight to voice mail when I'm at home because there's no reception.

AT&T is the worst cell phone company I've had to deal with. Turn onto Route 311 and the phone is useless. Also the most dropped calls of any network! Days left on my contract and I'm out of their.

My phone coverage, even when surrounded by lots of brick buildings (commercial, residential and religious) has been pretty good. Doesn't matter whether I'm driving in the neighborhood, near the mall, the airport or even downtown, the reception is consistent and reliable. Verizon delivers.

Too many dropped calls. Way too unacceptable for such an expensive plan

Receive full bar coverage here at 460 near the Wal-mart in Bonsack. As well as airport area in a basement. Even still had two bars going though the Tunnels at the Airport!

my phone stopped getting decent reception inside my building three months ago; I understand this deterioration affects the entire campus, yet Sprint refuses to acknowledge any problem. Switching phones has yielded no improvement, but T-Mobile and Verizon reception is fine.

The worst. You can have coverage going one way down a road and on the return trip (same road) have nothing, nada, zip. You get very spotty notification on voice mail and unless you like standing outside to make and receive your calls, then pass this one by. Me, I like to use the phone inside buildings, too.

I have been very happy with my service, I havn't found a better cell phone co. in this area to even compare with Verizon.
