little or no reception inside house and very poor reception outside. Sprint has extremely poor reception in the zipcodes of 53110 and 53235

little to no reception inside house and poor reception outside... sprint coverage is by far the worst for quite a large area in the zipcodes of 53110 and 53235

I use T-Mobile service and have had mixed results. Away from the city, on the south side, I sometimes struggle to get 3 bars, bet when downtown, in the basement of many buildings I get all 5. In traveling i've had no service up in the Green Bay area while someone else with Cingular had all 5 bars, in the Gary Indiana area I had all 5 bars, where someone with Cingular also had all 5 bars, but have gone to Chicago and had the best reception compared to everyone else (amazingly almost all carrieres were represeted, us cellular, cingular, and nextel; I had all 5 bars while riding the eL which at points goes underground). Bascially, as long as your are within a "big" city (i hesitate to include milwaukee in there) you'll get great reception, as far as the surrounding suburbs it has been hit or miss.

I get great reception pretty much everywhere in the country except in my house and inside my office (Teutonia and Florist)!

Sometimes the phone is sitting right next to me, and a call will go right to voice mail, without ringing. This is bad if your like me, this is my only phone. I got rid of my land line. I've contacted Verizon several times and they didn't have any answers. I've tried several different phones, with the same results. I even down graded to a chipper, less features phone. Same problem. This has been my only complaint about verizon. PS Verizon told me the towers were within a mile or so, both north and south of my location, so I shouldn't be having a problem. Sounds like they're telling me I'm the problem.
