We have had mulitiple problems with Verizon coverage in Riggins. Now it won't work at all. The clerk at The City of Riggins office told me that Alltel is the only service that covers this area now.

Ever since SPRINT took over the reception has become shoddy and I can not even use my phone until I am 2 blocks away from home, I feel sorry for anyone on a Sprint network their service is very poor and their customer service is non existant... ..what to the customer is always right... . anyway I am looking for new service since I no longer have service when I need it the most (in my home.)

No reception most of the time. Once in a while a little one bar but usually none. I need to travel 3-5 miles to even get a signal.

I use to have another phone that worked in Riggins Idaho, I think it was an Audiovox, but then I went to McCall and *228 to update the phone and when I returned to Riggins I had no service? With the exact same phone that did work prior to updating the software. Called Verizon support and they couldn't help me. My new Razor V3c does not work in Riggins either while a friends newer Razor does work great in Riggins. He did make sure that when he purchased the new phone they did not change a single thing about his calling plan that is like 2-3 years old now. I beleive the cell tower in Riggins had an agreement with Verizon but it fell through one day so when you update your phone it will not work anymore? Oh yes you do have to change the option in system from automatic B to automatic A for most phones to work in Riggins.

We were assured by Verizon that our new phones would work here. They don't! Other Verizon users in the area seem to receive reception on their phones. What gives?

I never have service with Edge Wireless. Even though there plans are cheaper listen to me you wont gett service anywhere or you will only get 1 bar at the most. It hasnt improved at all for as long as I have had my phone. I dont have service with any of my phones, I have had 9 in the past year and it hasnt helped at all

Cingular lost the agreement they had with the phone towers here. Cingular has no service at all in McCall and surrounding area. Boise is closest place you can get a signal.

Reception almost nonexistant. Mountain in way both E and W where towers are located.

Summer is here, the trees have leaves, and Verizon is leaving us in the black hole of cell phone signal again. I can no longer get or make calls from home. I know many Verizon users in this area who keep their service because they need coverage up in Cascade and McCall, but back here in our part of the North End, you can't get or receive calls. The problem area with many dead spots goes from Hill Rd on the North almost to State St. and Lemp St. on the South; N 30th St. on the West and almost to Harrison on the East. This area has good Cingular coverage, even in buildings, so it can be done. When I pull into my driveway, I have 0 bars of Verizon signal outside, not in building. Verizon needs to put in another tower to serve this area, but they are not interested. We are installing a repeater antenna to boost our coverage since my husband's employer uses Verizon and he has no other choice.

The Stanley basin has no cell phone coverage. Leave your phone at home. It has no business there anyway.
