I switched have had Verizon ever since they merged with Alltel. I can't remember having any dropped calls any where in the city. Maybe I don't travel around much. I did drive to Washington state (using I-10) a couple of years ago and only lost the signal a couple of times. No signal at my daughters house in Washington, but they lived in a dead spot that didn't receive signals no matter what service you had. I think Verizon is better than anything I've heard of or used.

No phone reception 90% of the time in or out of the house. Sometimes 1 bar just long enough to make call or receive call, then drop it. Had flawless coverage in Colorado. Very disappointed. I can only make calls using my Vonage app. on my cable wireless at home. Strangely, I usually seem to have adequate data service, though slower than I am used to. Definitely in a black hole out here.

no reception in my house unless I use the MicroCell which I paid $250 to get reception in my house. Can't wait until Verizona gets the iphone.

Ok, so I had Nextel for years and it seemed to work very well for me. Then Last Christmas we switched to T-Mobile so it could be cheaper on a family plan... BIG MISTAKE! Yes, I love the blackberry, but I always have dropped calls. In my home it is impossible to make a call, so I installed a router (more money) so my blackberry can make calls via WIFI (of course my boyfriend doesn't have a WIFI capable phone with T-Mobile so this didn't help him one bit!). Anyway, after all of that I have dropped 5 phone calls today alone and couldn't connect a call when I tried 3 times. This is so frustrating as I was trying to conduct business. It is very disappointing because in Colorado Springs this past summer T-Mobile was amazing, fast speeds when searching the net or doing GPS, virtually NO dropped calls. Now here in Tucson, I wait 5 minutes for my phone to get my GPS info and another 1 minute to do my search. It is just ridiculous! I am thinking of going to Verizon because I hear it is pretty good in Tucson, (rated #2 compared to T-Mobile rated #4) but when I look up Colorado Springs for next summer 2011 it shows Verizon is 4th and T-Mobile is 1st, so it seems I would have those same problems with Verizon that I am having now with T-mobile. I just don't know what to do... I just want a phone to work, when I need to make / receive a call.

I've had AT&T since 2007, and it has been poor service. I drop a call more days than not, and have difficulty hearing the other person, or vice-versa, which is just as bad or worse when they mistake what they thought they heard on a business call. I live by the U of A, and each time school starts up, service gets terrible for a month or two. If I can get a bar at all, my calls often get dropped. Recently, my phone dropped a call at least 5 times during the same conversation. I gave up and found a land line. Web browsing has been so slow, that I don't do it very often. I use to have Sprint (before my company went with AT&T), and lost only two calls in two years, while driving between two large foothills. Used the web browser all the time on that phone, and tethered to my laptop. I'm throwing in the towell on AT&T.

Since mid 2010 call reception has dropped dramatically. Very often, incoming calls are missed completely; people say they have called repeatedly and we do not answer; there is absolutely no indication of incoming calls. Outgoing 0 bars, or 1 bar at most 2 bars IF held in a few spots around the house. It has become a real pain.

THis is second week i'm travelling to Santa Fe and plans to relocate by next month. I'm staying in Hilton, downtown and there is no reception in my room at all. This is same in many places in the town. I'm thinking od breaking the contract with AT&T and planning to go for T mobile.

The coverage map indicates my location as being within "moderate" range but it's really much worse. Almost never get 2 bars and if so, it's fleeting.

I have had Verizon for 8 years and have terrific reception. Maybe there was a dropped call once every year, or so, but I don't even recall for sure. I don't know why others in my same area have trouble.
