I've been a cellphone user for 12 years - all with the same number and same carrier. Celllular One > ATT Wireless > Cingular. The phones are cooler, but reception keeps getting noticeably worse. Now we have 3 phones in the house (this plus 2 LG) and none work very well. Dropped calls, static and all around dissatisfaction. I was going to move directly to Verizon, since Consumer Reports says they're generally the best, but this most excellent local forum is changing my mind. T-Mobile? Verizon? Hmmm.

I'm delighted with Verizon reception in my home. Infinitely better than my former carrier (Qwest)which had a total dead area here.

Very little coverage in St. Louis Park neighborhoods. Sprint told me they do not guarantee service indoors. VM taked up to three days to appear on phone.

No reception to speak of with Cingular. I get one bar if I'm lucky. My girlfriend has T-Mobile and has never had a drop-out. I would highly recommend against using Cingular in this neighborhood... As soon as my contract ends I'm going to T-Mobile.

People who use Cingular have little to no reception in my building, regardless of the phone type. My co-workers have every other service and none of them have problems (they can even use their phones in the elevators). I am required to put my head against the window in order to make calls with Cingular GSM.

No coverage at this intersection. My office is located here. My coworkers with Verizon have no coverage either. I contacted Verizon. They said we were out of luck. I switched to T-Mobile as did many of my coworkers. T-Mobile works perfectly.

Sometimes I can get a signal in the house, sometimes not. It's a 50 / 50 chance the phone will ring when in my house. There seems to be a radius of several blocks with very weak signal.

Rarely got signal in house. Had to go outside or near windows. Constant dropped calls / inability to make calls. Called Sprint and found out we were in a "known coverage hole." Thanks for the useless $450 phone! Both T-Mobile and Cingular (GSM) get full signal in this location.
