Knollwood Subdivision / Adams and Grape Rd. intersection, Granger, IN 46530

As another subscriber said, there's only reception when you stand outside and on top of a hill without moving. No reception inside buildings. Voicemails do not show until you turn onto Adams Rd. My phone even has a pull out antenna and recieves reception in areas where most others cannot, but there's still no service in Knollwood. An employee at Verizon Wireless once explained that it was because there IS service avaiable, but it is considered roaming and since Verizon doesn't charge for roaming, they simply cut your reception in roaming areas as their way of not charging you. It could also be due to the lack of towers thanks to residents who do not want a cell tower impeding their magnificent view of some nearby trees.
The 12 mile stretch between Batesville and St. Leon on Interstate 74 has absolutely no reception whatsoever if you are travelling between Cincinnati and Indianapolis... .What a mess!

I just tried going with Cingular who claims "you have coverage in your neighborhood, our system says you get a moderate strength signal". Yeah, well, that's a crock pot full of hot, steamy BS. I'm switching back to Verizon. At least they don't try to BS me by over-promising and under-delivering. They're up-front and will tell ya... "your area has no coverage". I can at least respect that...
EVERYTIME we go through this intersection your call gets dropped, no service, for about 100' in any direction of this intersection. Also heading North on Miami when you go down the hill samething no service. T-Mobile here in Indiana is really crappy, they haven't developed enough partnerships with Cingular and built enough towers to provide good service in this area. Only time service is decent is if you are right on top of a tower! I have informed T-Mobile every month for the last 10 months about how crappy service is here and they just say "We will let our engineers know of the problem" Not to mention every phone that I have gotten from them I have had to exchange atleast 1 time in the first year. The best phone I recieved from them was my Nokia 3595. Motorola c650 doesn't like the internet, the Samsung e315 is just crap, you cannot store downloaded games on the phone! T-Mobiles tech support and their stores are useless when you have a problem. I had to flash my phone myself to fix the problems, they said "We can send you a new phone $10 for upto 10 day delivery or $15 for 3 day delivery" they said "We were spending 20 million a month on shipping replacement phones so we had to start charging" Well if you got decent phones and didn't screw them up with your branding you wouldn't have that problem... March 8th my contract is up and I will be going elsewhere... FINALLY! BTW I had T-Mobile in FLorida and everything was great there, no service problems at all! If I was still in Florida I would never leave T-Mobile!

Valley Brook Ct. / 21st St. intersection, Indianapolis, IN 46229
Some days its 1 bar, other days its searching for signal most of the day. In Portage its ok, but anywhere near the steel mills or power plant in Porter / Chesterton its gets bad. Have heard good things about Verizon, contemplating switching over. Tried Nextel out here, and well just wasnt happy with them at all.
