Cell Service Kohala Nonstop to Kona
Wouldn’t it be great if we could have cellular coverage nonstop driving from North Kohala all the way to Kona…only problem is from around the 20 mile marker to 15 mile marker on #270 and various locations on The Upper Road. What can we do to get AT&T and Verizon to cover the gaps?
AT&T has app called mark the spot. Whenever I am in an area where there is no service or spotty service, I mark the spot. This alerts the towers operators that service is not getting to certain areas. When I drive in and out of Kohala I mark the spots. When areas are marked repeatedly, the tower operators will adjust the signals accordingly.
Mahalo Rhonda. I have never heard of that as I have Verizon. I will check if they also have something like that. That would surely be a good start; letting them know enough times that they decide it is worth covering.
I wish Verizon had such an app. This is what I was told…The only official way to report dead spots on the Verizon Wireless network is to call customer service at 1-800-922-0204 from a landline or *611 from your phone and request they open a trouble ticket to investigate that location..
