I get really crummy coverage for both voice and data at my house, so I used the coverage maps to check what they say. According to coverage maps, I should be getting 4G LTE coverage, and no one has EVER received a 4G signal at this house on a Verizon phone (3 different phones right now). Every once in a while we get an intermittent 1X that lasts a few minutes and then goes away, but we are lucky to get a 3G signal. In terms of voice coverage, the map says we should have digital voice signal (Verizon's map doesn't say estimate how strong the signal should be, just that we should get it), but we barely even get that -- most of the time we get one bar and if you walk around the house you will lose your call.
Am I losing my mind or are these coverage maps outright lies? Maybe the trick is they avoid saying how strong the signal should be -- I suppose since I intermittently see 1X pop up, I technically might be on the very, very edge of a 4G area. Pretty shifty. Other providers seem to accurately let me know what to expect right down to my street level.
Anyone else noticing the coverage map says they should get 4G and it's just not there at all?
