I have a Verizon phone for years now i got married and moved to Lakewood I started to get terrible service, dropped calls and failure to call. I heard That I should switch to 4g not 3g and I bh had the Verizon 4g phone for 6 months and I have gotten great service and bh not got any dropped call, failure to call since. And no I didn’t move I still live in the same place. I recommend switching to a 4g phone. You will be very happy you did. Thank you mr. mayor!

FOR ALL THOSE OF YOU THAT DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU CAN DO TO MAKE YOUR PHONES ALL WORK A LOT BETTER IS TRY POWERING OFF YOUR PHONES FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN RESTARTING OR POWER YOUR PHONE UP AGAIN AND THIS WILL REGENERATE YOUR PHONE’S CAPABILITIES WITH THE CELL TOWERS….. THIS ALWAYS WORKS BEST….. AND ALSO TRY DIALING *228 (STAR 228) (ASTERISK 228) AND PUSH SEND AND FOLLOW THE PROMPTS ON THE SCREEN…..

I don’t think anyone reads comments written in all caps

Does either Sprint or TMobile have good coverage in Lakewood for Data/HD voice?
I would assume their towers are less congested in Lakewood then Verizon and AT&T.

Why are you so worried about the phone service. Why don’t you worry about the kids that need extra helping why are you taking away funding. Let’s worry about our kids before we worry about phone service
