No signal pickup along I43 going north. Does Verizon serve this area?

I just a new Motorola Q to hopefully get better reception, but it is still horrible. Verizon has horrible coverage in Milwaukee.

my company switch us from us cell to cigular in may 2005. intially they were terrible,drop calls poor or no reciption in a major city.We complained and they didn't bill us for 3 months I think calls were dropped while car were in motion due to soft wear problems with merger with AT&T sysytem. soft wear up grades to phone helped and more towers have improved some of the problems. Now we rarely drop calls and reception has improved to 2-3 bars from 1.

Cingular is no good for people who live in the middle of the boonies. In the past month I have been with Verzion, Cingular, T-Mobile, Sprint. I have had the top of the line phones with these carriers and my best service in home and on the road is Verzion. I havent once dropped a call on Wasukee and Bonniwell Rd. All other major carriers drop calls in the same sections. If you are a boonies person you need to get CDMA. GSM is not for you. Also Mequon is a very good place for Verzion.

I've never had so much trouble with a phone in 6 years. Both my roommate and I get awful reception which fades in and out by the minute, regardless of if you dance around the apartment or sit stone cold still. I jump from 0-3 bars and have had more dropped calls than 5 / hour, on average. If I run outside, I can get anywhere from 0-4 bars, but regardless the calls get dropped and there are times when I can't make or receive calls for up to 5 minutes. Usually I can hear the other person but they stop talking to me because they can't hear me beyond the static. The price was right for the plan, but the time spent repeating myself was definitely not worth the extra mintues.

No reception up North in Rome, WI; near Wisconsin Rapids. They tell you it will work but it never does even with GPS. Their Service is okay but you spend so much time on the phone. the phones break easily. The two year contract sucks. I'm thinking of buying a Go Phone or cancell all together.

I switched from US Cellular to T-Mobile at the beginning of April 2006. Overall, my call quality and reception have been outstanding. I think that only as recent as 12-18 months ago, GSM reception was "fair" - but things have improved. I use my phone a lot- and in almost a month I have only had one dropped call, which I can live with. And I'm not even certain the drop was on my end of the conversation... . My US Cellular call quality was not so great, and often full of static. My primary issue with the newer GSM phones and service is buildings- the signal just does not penetrate like CDMA did. Anyhow, last week we drove from Milwaukee to Gulf Shores, Alabama (Gulf Coast), and my phone worked every time I needed it along the way. Yes, we were driving along a big interstate. T-Mobile does a really good job at making their signals work along major routes. And even in Gulf Shores, which is a dinky area along the beach, I could still make good calls. I was very impressed. With my US Cellular phone and service, half the time I was on the highway I would not have been able to make a call. Anyway, T-Mobile as a carrier gets my vote for certain. Their pricing is quite aggressive, good options, and great call quality - at least in the "middle" part of the US.

For 6 years Verizon has been promising to make it possible to receive and send phone calls in the village. Still ain't happening. I miss calls here all the time and it's a problem.

This is my home. No matter what, over the last 6 years... no matter what phone I'm using, etc. I get the worst possible service and dropped calls. Really bad!

Man o man. I was so happy with the old att. Contact ended so I stayed on with cingular. bad bad bad. Dropped calls,no reception cross talk. Even had an oevrdue balance read on the air while talking with family. It wasnt even my bill. Too many hours on customer helpless line. Had a bad phone replaced with little trouble but cannot get a signal in my house. I can see a tower from my upstair bedroom,
