Verizon
Don't see too many comments on Verizon but I've used them for over a year with excellent results here in central Ohio and when I travel to Arizona and Florida. I haven't had any problems at all.

I alwayd get poor or no reception on I-70 East towards Reynoldsburg. I drop at least 2 calls per day no matter where I am in Columbus.

Always great reception, little to worry about in regard to dropped calls. I drive all over town, Whitehall, Bexley, Lincoln Village, Galloway, Downtown Columbus, and rarely experience any issues. As others have said, even in buildings including malls and basements, no problems getting calls in or out. Thank God for GSM!

dropped calls abound on riverside drive, spotty coverage in surburban areas including 161 west. cut off is severe 20 minutes out on 33 NW other side of marysville.

Very good reception just about everywhere. Always worked well except some areas of lecture halls and libraries, but that's to be expected. Reception in dorms and other buildings is otherwise great. Very satisfied with overall service.

Within my apartment and also outside, I am lucky to get a 1 bar reception within a 1 / 4 to 1 / 2 mile radius of where I live (Tamarack circle is located between Cleveland and Karl 1 mile south of 161). 50% of the time I cannot get reception for both incoming and outgoing calls. 80% of my calls from here are dropped within 5 minutes of connecting. I highly DISCOURAGE getting T-Mobile as a carrier! I've written and spoken with them and they are unfriendly and rude and unwilling to work or please their customers. I give the company an overall rating of F!

I have had my MPx220 for about 6 months now, and in the Dublin area, reception has never been a problem, not even in basements. The only time I ever have a problem is when I'm in my church's rec center, which has very very thick concrete walls--I still get about 1 bar on that. It's most likely my phone that attributes to the good reception--when I start to get out of the area, near roberts road area, the signal just dies. But good coverage all the way up 71 to Cleveland!

works well except when in my apartment and other thick buildings. i've had sprint, at&t, and now Alltel and they are all about the same. Sprint customer service is by far the worst... but that's a different category. thinking about switching to verizon, cincular, or t mobile

I have had T-Mobile for 24 months now and have never had a dropped call in the Columbus Area. Unlike Sprint or Verizon. I can even walk thru unground garages. I wish the GSM world would have more rural coverage like the two mention above.

Nextel has superior signal in many other areas that I have traveled to. Strong signal in North, East, S.E, W Columbus. Poor Signal in my area which is S.W. Columbus near Grove City. Constantly dropping calls, normally only 1-2 bars of signal. Nextel needs to grow a brain and build a tower in this area.
