I go to ODU but am living in Virginia Beach near Providence but travel throughout the city and Alltel coverage throughout the area has been great. In Virginia Beach I generally stay on at least 4 bars and 5 most of the time. But I haven't noticed anywhere I even drop down to 3. The reception has been great and so has the call quality. I've never had a dropped call here. The coverage and prices are top notch. That My Circle thing is a good deal. Customer service has been great too. I would definitely recommend Alltel for this region.

few bars. Picture and file transfer messages are slow.

i always have 3 to four bars and even when I have one 1 bar I can still direct connect its the best service to get in my area and I have had t-mobile, sprint, and verizon

Suncom AT&T drops calls consistently on Laskin Road, Rt 264, General Booth Blvd and more.... For those not from the area, the first road mentioned is a main Va Beach thoroughfare and to top it off the drop call location is about 2 blocks from a Suncom storefront. Frequent complaints have done nada. Also, voice messages may take up to several days to receive. You could have your phone on while in Target (where there is no reception at all) someone could call, leave a message and you wouldn't know for several days! Also, in recent months it has taken multiple dial outs to actually complete a call. DO NOT USE SUNCOM - THEY SUCK.

Verizon Wireless has spotty coverage. May look around for other providers.

We need a tower in KG. There are schools and a fire station (Little Neck Road) as well as several churches that would serve well as platforms. Signal strength in the KG penninsula goes up and down routinely.

I have very rarely had a problem with my signal. It even worked when I went on vacation in Jamaica. No delay in messages either. I even have service in Lynnhaven Mall. The only place I have had problems is in parts of Sentara Virginia Beach Hospital. I would love to have an iphone, but refuse to switch to AT&T because I'm afraid I would never have a signal.

Man this phone is bad at my house. But, once I leave my place leave its pretty good thru out the Hampton Roads area.

We live off Bow Creek. Just got the new Iphone and found we drop calls in our home and front yard.

The only time I don't get service (and this is over by the Wawa on Rosemont Rd... ... I live across the street) is when I have my phone in my pocket for more than 10 minutes. Other than that I have not a lick of problem with it!
