Verizon???

Verizon service in Q is good? Bad?

Larv
  • Use Verizon all over USA and Canada including Quartzite. Been very good. Had zero problems at RV show in Q a few years ago.
  • Right now, Verizon is great in Q, BUT in Jan it will be sloooooow as 100s of thousands of people descend on the town. Verizon does bring in extra towers for the show, but never enough.
  • From Seattle to Lewis & Clark caverns in Montana there was a 2mile stretch with no Verizon service. I was using a cell booster. Verizon costs more. Actual coverage area is great.
  • The biggest problem with any of the carriers in Quartzsite is that they are completely overwhelmed with 900,000 people showing up during show week. None of them work well except very late evening, very early morning.
  • Don't know about Q, but we get good Verizon service at places along the Oregon Coast where we could not get anything from AT&T.
    Very happy with Verizon coverage anywhere we have gone.
  • I have not stayed in Quartzsite parse but since it's right on I-10 all the carriers should work. According to Verizon's service map you should have good coverage. When I ran long haul Verizon had the best coverage. Never had any issues in that part of the country.
