Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Nextel / January 2007Reporting Dead Spots
Does Nextel have a site or a meanigful way to report dead zones/spots? If so, where? My son is currently in Old Bridge, NJ (zip code 08857) and he is limited to parftial and/or no service yet Nextel's site shows coverage in the area. If it makes a differnce, we have a government type account. Thanks, Scott There is an old bridge site under construction as you read this and another on the way > Does Nextel have a site or a meanigful way to report dead zones/spots? If > so, where?

How is the coverage along the way?  SignatureMike ------------------------------------- > That's GREAT! With so much family there we travel to Old Bridge fairly > often.

That's a joke. They need to really get on top of this. I know someone who has a business in Morganville and would love to switch to Nextel, but they can't due to the coverage problems. I am talking about 30+ phones. This account in itself would cover the cost of one full base station being deployed. I know this because I live and grew up in the area and know people that have Nextel and are very unhappy. Sprint was like this in the area, but vast improvements were made over the past few years. I suspect Nextel will have to do the same. Naturally, Verizon has the best coverage here as they do everywhere else in the Northeast (pretty much) > That's GREAT!

If your service sucks, stop whining and switch to another one. > Oh come on Nextel have a dead spot, never > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] >> >> Thanks, Scott Keep this in mind, Nextel is a business to business provider. What businesses are there in ND and SD? Before you list some little company with 20 or 30 employees, know that it costs about $200,000 to put up a tower. That means that there needs to be at least 5000 - 10,000 customers in that area to make any money. I know, big shocker, a company in business to make money????????? If the state has more deer than people, there will be very few cell towers. Why do you think that there is only 1 cell carrier that covers the UP? > Oh come on Nextel have a dead spot, never > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] >> >> Thanks, Scott |
