I cannot get a signal at my apartment complex with Sprint. Then I got a strange roaming message that said I could only make a call if I entered a credit card number. I called Sprint and they told me that I should have service. I said that, yes, I should, but I do not. The only help I got from them was to go to a window or make sure I'm on the top floor! Not very convenient if I'm trying to work at my computer or be on a conference call. Luckily, thankfully, and happily my contract is up and I can switch to another service provider.

There is no reception inside the buildings and poor outside

Although Virgin (had) a great prepaid deal (their rates have changed, although I'm still under the old plan), the reception is non-existent at home. Being that we're not all that far from I-45, I was surprised. I've also had a problem in certain commercial buildings in the Galleria area which is another place you'd expect good service. (I've noticed they don't offer a map showing their coverage area.) If you're on the road, especially major roads or freeways, there's no problems. Even though I will probably pay somewhat more, I'll probably be switching to another prepaid service so I can use it at home and because Virgin apparently doesn't offer free minutes with others on their plan.

In Feb. 2007 I could get no signal (or a very weak analog signal) anywhere in the park. In Feb of 2006 I could get a signal (2-3 bars) near Panther Junction and at the overlook at the south end of the Old Ore Road.

We have two different phones; a lot of promises but same problems previously reported... no reception at all... .

roaming signal is flaky. phone bounces between digital and analog, won't hold call. 10 minutes down the road it's fine.

from gallup, nm to carlsbad cavern, nm, on march 16, 2007, absolutely no cover across the state. passed several cell phone towers and other motorists on their phones.

Home on HP Road, no reception but in higher elevated orchard get 1 bar. Useless at home and most other places in this area. Once you get a good signal, pull off road immediately to talk.

I've been reporting this reception problem to Verizon for five years. The whole neighborhood is a dead zone. All Verizon can say is "Oh Well".

We have to leave our house and drive toward Longview on Alpine Rd.before getting a signal.
