I almost never have less than 5 bars.

This is the only carrier who gets reception on 99% of the places on campus, including the library building, SMT building and computer labs. Only problem is there can be an echo so you may have to walk around. I recommend Verizon for anyone who is a student or works on campus at Green River Community College.

Reception has improved but in some buildings (like Winco) the signal in non-existent.

Phone sometimes switches over to analog mid-call but it usually doesn't drop the call. Had AT&T (not GSM) and a Nokia 5190 before that was about the same...

Reasonable reception outside the home if you stay away from the trees and upstairs, minimal at best downstairs. The all digital phones in the family have very poor to no covereage while my old Tri-Mode dinosaur reamains the only reliable one. Verizon billing is always on the high side. Be very carefull when you contact them for help or plan service for they will up your 2 year aggreement with each call. Customer service has the appearance of being friendly but they are mostly robotic with seemingly preprogramed responses. Free roll over minutes is the only "temporarily effective" remedy for poor coverage and excessive costs. Hard to believe that we are in the 21st century!

Recetion extremely poor in this area and there appear to be no cell towers in the immediate area. Difficult to use a cell phone due to the drops and bad reception.

Little to no reception at our house... very irratating.

They say it's better the closer you are to major cities. I hate my ATT GSM phone. I break up and lose calls all the time.

AT&T sucks in Seattle

The coverage is spotty. Unfortunately, it doesn't go from good to so-so, to bad, and back. It's more like good, to disconnected, to good, to so-so...to disconneted. Works OK outside of the home. Does not work in homes along 42nd ave, 315th st. and 314th st. Works ok around the 320th st. strip. So, if you are in the twin lakes neighborhood, be careful and test your coverage out thoroughly to make sure there aren't any holes, say on the drive from 320th to your house, or in your house, etc.
