The only signal I've ever picked up is either Telus or Rogers. Canadian residents here love it... they can live in the U.S., and use their Canadian cell service to call work in Vancouver or wherever. For U.S. citizens who are not Canadian and have little to no business in Canada, it's horrible. I have a mobile as an emergency call service in case I fall or otherwise need help from 911. No can use... 911 gets Lower Mainland 911 who say they cannot relay my call for help on to Whatcom County 911. AND, if I do occasionally pick up a signal from Telus or Rogers, it becomes an International Roaming call for a very high rate from my AT&T service. Somebody in the U.S. must have an answer for this problem. I'm not Canadian, and I don't live in Canada. I live in the United States, Point Roberts, and when I need help, there is no one in Canada I can call.

You will get 2 bar service if you stand on the south beach. Any other service is thru Telus (Canada). This service totally limits your servic to USA numbers like 800 etc. Verizon have been telling lies about a tower here for a least 5 years. I am sick of them. Customer service (what service its a collection agency) emails, calls never replied to because the 1st level dummies only sell new service and do not know squat about anything else.

Only best coverages at Light House Park towards to Blaine.

Sometimes I get one bar when the sun, moon and planets are in perfect alignment but have never successfully received or placed a call on my Verizon phone here in Point Roberts. Seattle has blazing 4G speeds, but here I cant even place a call. 3G is just a distant dream here. I think I may have to switch to a Canadian Cellular provider as they ALL have super strong reception here in Point Roberts.

I am on Rogers, and I get service mostly everywhere in point roberts other then by the community centre and the stretch of tyee from the Can-Am to the border.

This would change if Verizon actually built the tower in Point Roberts they have had in planning stages for years now, but they still won't commit to a timeline. For now Rogers AT&T seems to be your best bet on the Point and I'm switching. Tired of waiting for that tower.

Zero reception with Canadian Telus provider at the post office. Wireless data at 1X speed northbound up Tyee street passed Johnson Rd. EDVO speed reception pass Dogwood Wy (not sure if its EDVo or the rev A at this point).

We get Verizon reception at home only when the wind blows in a certain direction. I guess that the wind catches the cell transmitter. Otherwise we're on 'roam' at Alder Street. Reception is pretty good at the top of the road, however.
