Verizon

Terrible reception out here. I heard Verizon has great reception here in az so I got a phone. I think they were only referring to Phoenix, cause mine drops calls as good as making them, as with the phones of all my family here in east Mesa!

My parents had cell phones with verizon since they merged with a company in the southwest. They never once had a problem. In my early teens I joined the verizon family, and haven't had any problems. I've been with Verizon for nearly 4 years now, and I love the service. I had friends and family who were with ATT and Sprint, and their service sucked! Lots of dead spots, and dropped calls. Verizon customer service is among the best! They are very friendly and always there to help (they have even been nice to reverse some fees a few times for me). Most of my friends go with Verizon, and not once have they complained about Verizon. I love their service and wouldn't switch to another provider!

Constant dropped calls and very poor reception from the home. Reception goes in and out of service or from Analog to Digital as it just sits in one position without being disturbed or used and in doing so the battery goes dead.

I was told by Sprint PCS that I live in a dead zone because of papago butte, which is nearby. After a year or two of Sprint trying things like "RF Optimization" they have offered to let me out of my contract (got this new phone over a year ago to try and see if it made things better, signed a new contract to get it). Reception is worst between 68th St. and Scottsdale Rd. - gets decent once you cross east of Scottsdale Rd. and McKellips Rd.

I have great service at my house in Scottsdale, never dropped a call. Also have a house in Show Low and get pretty good service there as well. However, the sales people at the stores (including the managers) are terrible. They are rude and in a hurry to tell you what you want to hear to get you out of their hair. Also, Whats up with the lame phones? I feel like Verizon gets all the leftovers from the companies with cool phones.

Terrible voice reception, if at all or between dropped calls. Data (such as missed calls) come thru fine. T-mobile marks the area as having "Fair" reception - term obviously refers to the commissions received by the sales staff, not the service.

Four to five bars just about everywhere in Phoenix metro except when mountains cover line of sight but then that coverage is reduced to two to three bars.

I had ATT GSM for 2 entire years thanks to contracts. It never worked inside my apartment and had so many dead spots and dropped calls. Verizon always works, its practically perfect. Get Verizon or you'll be on this site complaining about some other carrier.

I have phenomenal T-Mobile service in my apartment complex where I have lots of building (other apartments and bussiness Im near a huge bussiness complex) Where as when I had sprint, Sprint never got a signal to my apartment. Increases my faith in T-Mobile!
