reception is terrible in Bennetts Harbor. Sprint even sent me a mini cell tower but it dosen't work most of the time. Its always needing to be reset which is a pain. My sons Verizon cell does fine because Verizon has a cell tower on lee farm road.

I just got a iphone 4s, at first the phone worked great but now all dropped calls, or no service from At&T, soon as I am out of my area phone works great... I am so fustrated and only found this out that At& T only has one tower 4 miles from where I live and lieing customer service at At&T says that there are two towers. Hopefully I can help someone else not make the same mistake..

T Mobile works good in suffolk, the only part of suffolk I have trouble with t mobile is southern suffolk, once you past the airport going towards carolina there is no service, and then there are some dead spots around the Lake Prince area, otherwise t mobiles works everywhere else in suffolk

T-moblie is the worst, can't get it in the home. Outside is questionable, have to stand on deck holding phone to the west and wait to see if a bar appears. Tmoblie is the worst and their customer service is... . no customer service. Once they have you, your stuck... ..Do Not Recommend. I have done away with in home service and have a total of 4 cells, to cancel you are stuck with a 800.00 bill. The service is so bad, it is almost worth sucking it up and going to another carrier. After calling and complaining for the last 4 months, they just don't care... ..they have you. Tmoblie should be ashamed,... ..they are just minimum wage morons that will never become anymore than what they are today... .morons... .

Alltel - either NO SERVICE or 1 antenna bar at best, with terrible reception and dropped calls. Our friends with Verizon came to visit, and they all had complete antenna bars on their phones. 10 / 30 / 07.

I have tested this phone and service for the past 2 years and so far I have no complains about the reception. I travel inconus and to the Caribbean (PR) and the reception is great. Looking for a less expensive plan but afraid that it will come with less reception.

I had T-Mobile which wasn't bad in Hampton, but it was very very weak around Suffolk. I switched my number over to Alltel and so far the coverage has been much better. I get a signal all over and it's always very good. I get full signal where I need it at home and at work. I've spent time just driving around and watching the signal meter since I'm still in my trial period, and it's really hard to believe how much better Alltel is around here. Coverage is good and plans are nice too. I find that on my two lines I rarely use any anytime minutes since most of my calls are to the 10 unlimited numbers in my circle.

Worst phone, worst reception, and worst customer service ever. My 2 year contract ends next week. I've had 3 of the V180s, and my son had 2 - because they died. Reception in the house is terrible. Sitting there with 4 bars, then drops the call. Then a bar or 2. Random work. If at home and need to make an important call, I use my land line. My husbands Verizon phone works just fine.

I work off of Burnetts Way at the hospital but live on basically the other side of Suffolk just off of E Washington St. It seems like I travel all over the city though but Alltel reception has always been great. I've tried it out for a while, 4 months now after getting a Razr from their store on N Main. But I get full signal at home and at work on 5 bars. Reception is great all over the city and it seems like even the backroads are covered great. No problems driving toward Emporia or Norfolk either. I'm very happy with this service. Call quality is also great and no dropped calls like I previously had with another provider I won't mention. I'm seriously thinking about getting rid of my landline too now because of how reliable it has been.

Since I first wrote on 6 / 28 / 05, Verizon said they need another tower to cover my area, as I am 1.2 miles too far away from their downtown tower. At least at the end of this month I can switch carriers without a penalty as they don't care whether the "Can you hear me now?" man can hear in my driveway. They have called me 4 times to renew and take a survey, but do nothing about the poor service in my home area. I am tired having to use the speaker phone to somewhat hold a call.

I seldom get more than two bars and frequently drop calls inside my house - Verizon freely admits I am in a weak reception area and that they "have plans to improve the system out there." I have to move around my house to find the best room where I willnot drop a call.
