No Bars! How Good Is Your Cell Reception?

This might be just me but I have found lately that my cell reception has not been the best. Maybe I’m just noticing it now but it seems I lose reception in more places then I did before. This could be because of my phone or my service provider. Who knows! You’d think by now though they would be able to have constant reception without any interruptions but on the other hand we are in a pretty remote place compared to other parts of Canada.

I find one of the worst “drop sites” is by the Liverpool exit that takes you in by Super Store. For some reason when I drive by there the signal goes dead for a little while. I’ve even had calls dropped because of it. It’s kind of strange. Some other common spots you lose signal is on the Tin Mine Road but that makes sense that is literally in the middle of nowhere. What other places in the Tri Counties have bad cell service? Does your phone keep it’s signal most of the time? Let me know on our Facebook page or text me at 543-1212!
