Verizon needs to invest in Maine. From other comments and reviews I've seen, it's not doing very well. On my phone all I get is try calling again. I've tried everything. I can't call anyone, and my texting quality (Speed of sent texts, even sending texts) is going downhill. They said it was because they use another tower (U.S Cellular I think) and so we can't call. Horrible connection. Am definitly going to switch asap.

No reception at all. Thought the last Governor was supposed to get rid of all these dead zones. We also have bad landlines so we have no broadband internet in the town of Byron whatsoever. Come on, put up a tower so we can join the rest of the world in this century.

I use a Sprint-based network (distributed by a west-coast grocery store,-so it is Sprint--) and it doesn't work anywhere near town, in Wilton, in Kingfield, in Temple, or anywhere around here investigated- probably the whole county for the most part. Instead, you'd have to buy a signal from the dominant carrier. Screw that noise! Works in Augusta, Lewiston, Portland, all other major cities, but there is a monopoly going on in Farmington. And, it's probably US Cellular, and their rates suck.

Downeast Maine / Washington County intersection, Lubec, ME 04652 Sat Aug 06, 2011

There are so many deadzones in Downeast Maine (Route 9, 192, 1, 189) that you cannot depend on using your cellphone at all. People living / visiting in this area often must drive long distances, and if your car breaks down you won't be able to call anyone for assistance! It is not safe at all! Could sure use some more towers along these major roads.

No landline. No cell service. Called customer service. No help because this is not my primary residence. Wanted to try a microcell, but no Internet connection. If I was a permanent resident, changing wireless providers would sure be a consideration. For the three months I work up here my wireless providers are free Wi-Fi where I can find it.
