Reception rating changes daily. Some days perfect on other days - "No Phone Service" all the way from home to Mile Hill road (five miles from home). Come on guys, you make enough off of your customers to do better by us.

In our home or about 300 ft out, the reception is poor. Sometimes in very good weather conditions we might have 2 bars. Sometimes with no bars we can still make or receive calls. But if we walk up to the road near our house or drive out about 500 ft reception improves dramatically. When you look at a coverage map, reception strength is average to good or better all around are area EXCEPT for where we built our house. I think AT&T would have better reception inside our house but I refuse to sign up with them. Verizon offers the best customer service of any cell phone company I've been with. There are a few towers encircling the town but we're in the unincorporated area with only one tower nearby. It's frustrating using the cell phone service because we never know when calls will go through or drop. However, we stay with Verizon because of the customer service. My other choice would be T-Mobile, but the coverage in my area would be even worse.

I can make calls one day, the next day from the same spot "Call Lost". I can "Retry Call" my entire drive to / from work off of California St, to NBK - Bangor. Verizon might have the best 3G network, but heaven forbid I NEED to use my cellphone in an emergency.

1 to 0 bars. Can sometimes get through but hard to maintain a clear connection and get lots of dropped calls. Wife's newer Samsung phone gets 1 bar pretty consistently but is still problematical at times.

No reception from my house or little reception from the Albertson on Sedgwick or Fred Meyer on Bethel.

I get reception at one or two bars, antenna must be extended. I usually have to go near the door or window or step out on the deck. Should be improved

1 bar on average. Sometimes 2, and more often that desirable 0. Lots of dropped calls. Key is to once you get a place with 2 bars, don't move. Don't even switch ears. Have experienced 50% dropped calls.

The up and down topography of Mullenix Rd.almost insures your calls will be dropped as you travel either east or west.

verzion gets 1 to no bars in manchester area of port orchard

Verizon is the only cell phone service that we have found to work in the rural areas of Kitsap County. We get 1 or 2 bars in the house in a couple of spots, otherwise, we go outside to make cell phone calls. I also have a T-Mobile phone thru my work--I can use it at the office (Bay St.in Downtown Port Orchard) but it's completely useless elsewhere.

Formerly a T-Mobile customer, got tired of zero reception, now I rarely drop calls, always can text messages, shoulda switched long ago!

Great reception, reportedly Verizon has the best coverage in Kitsap County.

Even though Verizon has a major cell site at Fauntleroy Way and California in West Seattle, it seems there is an on going problem with dropped calls. I have called several times and they claim it is a "bad" switch for that zone. Hmmm... that was some time ago. Beware, Verizon is very touchy in West Seattle near Lincoln Park.
