Which is most likely the cause of poor reception? I have noticed everyone I know that has Cingular/AT&T has much worse reception than me and I have Verizon. Yet they insist to me that I should switch to theirs and that the phone is what makes the difference. I don't believe that.

Its the number of towers surrounding you more then the phone. I would check the coverage maps on both sites to make sure u have coverage. I still consider Verizon to be the most reliable network. I have never heard anything bad about verizon except they dont get the coolest phones but the ones they have, have worked for me for 8 yrs.

I have had absolutely zero problem with Verizon other than me accidentally going over on my minutes this month, but that is my fault for forgetting that just becuase you and Sep used Verizon doesn't mean everyone does. I got in a habit of not payiong attention to minutes used. lol

I am not even considering switching whatsoever. I wish Verizon would offer me a lot to sign a new contract becuase I want to stay with them anyway and I don't really need a new phone. Wish they would offer me something else. lol
