We are with T-Mobile and they talk about the great reception they have, I didnt have any reception in most of Kansas. They dont have coverage there at all and their phones will not work on anyone elses towers.

12 hours into activating my phone and have -zero- phone service.

Every time I enter this intersection my call is dropped.

There is no reception in Ashland with Alltel. The new United Communications cell service is great though! I have 4 / 5 bars sitting in my house on the south side of town. Was really happy to tell Alltel good bye!

I have been with Cingular for 8 years and the best coverage and the best service about 4 years ago before they switched to the T-Mobile towers. they said that it would make the phones better yea right the towers they are on now is about six patches on top of an old system from 1999 that was the last time any new equipment was installed. I want to switch carriers but it is $150 to buy out or wait another year to get out of it. if you are thinking of going with Cingular don't. oh and this more bars in more areas if someone finds this let me know because I noticed less bars in more areas.

This could be a problem with my phone, but I cannot get a signal in the twin lakes area

I've been with Alltel for over 6 years and the coverage and service is getting worse every year. I,ve contacted them and they said they sent a "TECH" out and it was ok. I dont think he was in Kingman County. Norwich is dead zone or Analog, Cheney Lake area is same, Kingamn State lake is no service at all and thats ten feet in front of there new tower. Cunningham is very poor or no service. The bad thing about it is that they do have towers here but I think there are so many other new towers from other companys going up that Alltel is not keeping up. So when my contract runs out in a few month I will be forced to swich Companys Sorry Alltel but you need to SH*** or get off the pot.

In a few spots in town is a little reception. But the majority of the town and the country is totally dead. Everybody should file a formal complain to the KCC and FCC and get the USF removed from the carriers who don't care about service.

8 miles from thier tower and no reception or 1 bar if your lucky. Their reps have told me everything from --ur 20 miles away from towers (8 miles by road, don't know where they are looking) to "No carriers cover that area" Not true Verizon works fine out here. Cingular is too big for thier britches if ya ask me. Bout to give them thier early termination fee and go with verizon... .No rollover miutes there, but at least I can use the service I pay for!

If I want to use my Nextel at my house, I have to go out in the front yard and not move. It has been this way for 5 years. Only reason I keep it is for the direct connect feature that my company uses. After reading comments, will probably try Verizon so I can use the cell phone for long distance at home.
