Worst Service ever and getting worse by the day!!!!

[Davonnaw]

I have been a Verizon customer since 2003.  I would not hesitate to recommend Verizon to anyone - until 2015.  I am not sure what changed but I have been considering a new service provider since then.  I wish I had already left!! Here we are 6 years later with a coverage map that is not at all what it claims to be.  I have an iPhone 11Pro AND consistently have 1 bar if that. The only time I can rely on service is when I am on WiFi.  My daughter has an iPhone XR - same issue.  My mother has a Samsung Galaxy A20 and she is sitting with 1 bar as we speak.  We live close to a metropolitan area and what I thought were abundant towers according to the map.  So why do we only have 1 bar.  Why is service getting worse and worse? If I could find a provider to pay off my current phone - we would be gone.  

I have called numerous times about this over the years and been told to "just upgrade, it will get better".  What do we do? We upgrade.  Nothing changes.  I got roped into a 2 year hotspot agreement on a defective device because they said it would improve my service, especially when I am having service troubles.  The hotspot ended up disconnecting randomly when I used it.  

This service is no longer reliable or one that I can recommend.
