Terrible Verizon cell phone service in Alameda. How can a major carrier like Verizon, that is selling service in our community and collecting money for it, be unable to provide basic cell phone coverage that it has contracted to provide its users? My Verizon cell phone regularly shows either 1 bar or "No Service". I am unable to make outbound calls for work, even to my own voicemail. This is a business cell phone under a corporate contract. The rare times I am actually able to make a call using my Verizon service, the call usually gets cut off. I have business calls to the East Coast to my colleagues that Verizon is unable to ever complete. My colleagues have to call me, often on my own, personal cell phone, which does not use Verizon but GoogleFi, which always works. It's shocking how bad the Verizon issue is here in Alameda.

It is horrible Most of the time we do not have the signal inside the building. If we get out on the street sometime in the good weather,the signal has only 1 bar. We spoke to the Cricket Technician. However, It is still unresolved until today, 3 / 1 / 2019.

Horrible / no service inside building. If it wasn’t for wifi connection, phone would be an overpriced clock! Contacted carrier several times and they have assured me issue was because of “downed tower”. I call BS! Emeryville is a dead zone.

Used to have great reception, no problems. Now suddenly only 1 bar, sometimes none. Calls drop constantly.

Never, ever more than two bars, indoors or out. Frequently falls back to 4G speeds. Call quality is poor.

Cellular reception has dropped significantly over past six months to point we cannot make calls from the house. Poor reception, drooped calls. Back and front yards are marginally better. We are dropping for another carrier.

Most calls don't go through. Those that do: drop, fail, terrible reception.

most days doesn't work inside the building, outside spotty, text is only random and getting a phone call.. can just forget it, the phone don't ring. all that money and my family can't get a hold of me, and in west oakland that can be a scary thing. hey AT&T how about a few more ugly trees to help the connection.

Max 2 bars on one side of my house down to no coverage on the other side. Often cuts out driving in nearby streets in the Montclair hills but not sure if the competition would be any better
