My son and I get very little reception anywhere in Bessemer City. Maybe one bar at the most. In Wal-mart forget it - total dead zone. In August we are switching carriers. Verizon told us Bessemer City is a "low lying area" and they have always gotten bad reception there. I have had them for over 10 years and cant remember it being as bad as it has been for the last 2 years.

between zero and one bar all the time, no reponse from verizon. they claim very strong coverage throughout chapel hill, lies.

Don't even sign up for Cricket service if you need it in or around the Harrisburg area! Other than Harrisburg, no problems! Just don't be even a couple of days late on your bill!

Tested with more than one phone. Phones display all bars or almost all bars. Outgoing calls fail to connect. (Wait "forever" with "connecting... " on screen, then get a "network not available" message. All the while, showing all bars.) Incoming calls go direct to voicemail.

no service at all and Alltel just does not care

Reception is the worst. Its bad to have a cell phone that you cant use at home escpecially when all the people in you home have cingular. You use your minutes because you have to use a land line phone. It is very aggrevating.

NO reception with US Celluar in the Pine Island area

Basically no reception with US Cellular

I Paid a lot of money for this bad little razr phone from Motorola, and I get not reception from Cingular's so called (All Over Network) I have to drive at least 5 or 10 Miles out just to get a good enough signal for the network not to drop my call, i've now had to switch to Boost Mobile I get a full signal at my location including everywere else with my new Motorola i415, a lot thicker than my Razr phone but so what at least I get a signal, i've been wanting to call and complain about the whole thing but it wouldn't do any good if Cingular would switch their service as IDEN insted of GSM it might actually work. I Don't Recommend Cingular Go Phone To Anyone ! (Thank You)

Signed up with Alltell down the mountain in Fayetteville, NC. Moved to Boone, we have absolutely no reception, nothing but static. Alltell held us to our two year contracts despite the lack of towers / reception. Stay away from Alltell.
