Nextel

Have been with Nextel for ten years. Reception is the worst ever! Since Sprint boughtout Nextel- more dropped calls, inability to use direct connect, tons of dead zones- even in dowtown Matthews. Text messages are received days late. Will leave when contract runs out but have no idea which comepany will be better.

Reception has gone from bad (1 bar) to virtually zero in recent months. I and all of my neighbors who have Verizon have to go stand outside on the lawn to get a marginal call through. I spoke to the tech people a few weeks ago and they created a ticket to resolve the problem 10 days ago and would get back to me in a few days, haven't heard a thing. I would be more than happy to appear in another company's ad illustrating how the network service is a joke. I don't live in a rural or out of the way area, I live in Charlotte NC.

Usually don't have any reception issues here. Sometimes I get voice mails and txt messages after a long delay, but that's probably due to my phone or their network as opposed to signal strength.

Outside of home is OK. Inside of house is terrible!

Cingular / AT&T is the worst. The reception all over Charlotte is spotty. I have called them several times. I'm just going to switch. I'm even cancelling my home phone with Bellsouth because they are all the same company now.

Great reception BUT Do not use this cell phone company unless you are residing in Eastern NC! I just moved and am facing staggering bills upwards of $400 when I only used to pay $65 a month due to the use of "other cell towers, which cause a huge fee to US Cellular." Then I was told I breached my contract by moving away from Eastern NC. I am looking for a carrier here but looks like no one is happy. Does anyone have any good reccomendations???

I don't know if it is the Razr or Cingular / Att. I had a Motorola v551 before and it was better, but I still had bars fluctuating all over the place with both. I'm tending to think that the Cingular / now ATT towers suck in Charlotte

Reception very poor. When I called Sprint they said they had a tower nearbye.

Used to be fine until a few weeks ago. Now, everybody in the office that has Cingular is complaining about an almost universal dip in coverage throughout the metro area.

there are about 3 mile in which Wendover, Sharon and the SouthPark area have horrible connections. Surely one tower along this route would help solve this issue. We are located well-within the city!
