Churdan, Iowa, Churdan, IA 50050 Thu Apr 13, 2006

My phone works perfectly in Ames, Des Moines, Waterloo, and Fort Dodge (Where I work), but at home I get no signal what so ever. The only place in Greene County (I live in this county) I can get a signal is about two miles north of the Greene / Guthrie county line on HWY 4. When I go home to Churdan it cuts out midway between HWY's 175 and 20 on County Rd.P29. In Carroll it THINKS about working. It doesn't say "No Network" but it thinks about it (as if it is going into a towered area). But also my phone doesn't work in Storm Lake at all don't even ask.

Hwy. 52 / Montgomery intersection, Decorah, IA 52101 Fri Feb 24, 2006

when phone / plan purchased specifically asked if Decorah and Ossian, Iowa were in coverage area. A family emergency confirmed they are not. Thankfully, was able to use daughter's T-Mobile to contact family. Contacted Spirit got no valid answer and was told we could terminate plan for $300.

Don't count on making any calls anywhere in the area, and if you do happen to get a signal don't count on a call to last.
