Spotty at best. Sometimes calls are ok. At other times, and for long periods of time, I get no reception and can't make or receive calls.

Coverage is really spotty here. Calls drop all the time in my home, but less so outside. Kind of sad that you have to go outside to be able to use the phone. Even then you still worry about dropping, usually always happens during the important ones too.

Bought an iPhone and basically it is worthless in this area if AT&T is your carrier... We traded our iPhones in for blackberry (s) and discovered it wasn't a phone issue. AT&T is completely inadequate in St. Paul. We had Sprint in this area for 7 years and NEVER had a dropped call and excellent reception. Sadder but wiser.

Very poor reception, if at all, in the Mac-Groveland area. I lived here four years ago and then relocated out of the country and now just returned. I assumed that AT&T would make improvements in the area's coverage over the past four years but sadly that is not the case. This is a major inconvenience since neither my husband or I, or anyone who visits with an AT&T number can reliably receive or maintain phone calls. I've called AT&T and they say we are in a "good" coverage area and they cannot guarantee coverage inside homes. Note that this is a problem even when driving in the area.

I had been very happy with T-Mobile as a provider, good local and national coverage, great customer service... until I moved. My apt. has a brick exterior and concrete walls inside. My reception has been terrible (lots of dropped and missed calls, horrible connectivity and signal strength) since I moved in and seems to be getting worse - if that is possible! If anyone has any advice, please pass it along! Thanks!

Went from good to dismal reception, seemingly overnight. Calls dropped frequently.

A phone is supposed is to make and receive calls primarily. Too bad my doesn't, even at home inside or out. Dropped calls. Long lags in connecting, if it doesn't drop them. Even calling ATT and registering a complaint and following up with them to no avail. Get it right ATT and quit lying about covering 97% of America. You owe me a free 3G Microcell. I just want the service that I pay for and was promised.

Can't take calls in the house... .must sit on the front step to get any reception at all and even then the sound quality is marginal. Making do right now as we're stuck in a 2 year contract but can't imagine we'll be making many phone calls this winter!

Verizon's own site shows their coverage Roaming charges will apply in the Canada Coverage area unless you subscribe to the Nationwide Plus Canada Plan. Roaming charges will apply in the Mexico Coverage area unless you subscribe to the Nationwide Plus Mexico Plan. These Coverage Locator maps are not a guarantee of coverage and may contain areas with no service. These maps reflect a depiction of predicted and approximate wireless coverage of the Verizon Wireless Network and the network of other carriers. The coverage areas shown do not guarantee service availability, and may include locations with limited or no coverage. Even within a coverage area, there are many factors, including a customer's equipment, terrain, and proximity to buildings, foliage, and weather that may impact service. An all-digital device will not operate or be able to make 911 calls when digital service is not available. Some of the coverage area includes networks run by other carriers; some of the coverage depicted is based on their information and public sources and we cannot ensure its accuracy.
