Could not find a signal as we drove around the Highlands-Cashiers area. We finally got a spotty signal as we got close to Dillard, GA. (Our second phone, Cingular, faired no better.) I guess the Highlands area is truly a great place to get away from it all (just don't count on a cell phone in case of an emergency).

Glad I didn't get a long term contract for this experiment. The coverage is lacking.

I-40 / Cary Towne Blvd. intersection, Cary, NC 27513 Tue Nov 15, 2005

Unbelievable! Calls consistently dropped on I-40 in Cary and in other points throughout the Triangle. Consistently low bars in many spots in the Triangle. The prior Alltel service I had in this area was 10x better.

Wright Ave. / Elam / Walker intersection, Greensboro, NC 27403 Sun Oct 30, 2005

I have been with Working Assets who uses the Sprint network for a year. Something changed this past summer and I cannot get any service in my house and limited service on my porch. The other night my daughter went to use her phone and she was in roaming - right in the heart of Greensboro. Friday night I was in the Cardinal area and had no service either.

US 1 S To Hwy. 55 East, Holly Springs, NC 27540 Thu Oct 20, 2005

After the kind service representative told me to "update" my programming, which I hadn't done it in 18 months, my reception dropped off completely on the routes in and out of Holly Springs. I'm not sure if Verizon lost the ability to use the many towers that I'm passing or if my phone was programmed to be antiquated. Contract is up next month and unless something changes, I'll be looking elsewhere.
