Des Moines 4G LTE Slow?

Is anyone else having issues with Verizon 4G LTE Speeds in downtown Des Moines during the work day?  My LG G3 is set to Network mode: Global, currently getting 4G signal of -95dBm and 1X of -71dBm.  When I run a speed test with ookla app, I get 0.09 mbps down and the up test won't even complete within a reasonable amount of time (a couple minutes).  I work around the intersection of 12th and Locust on the 5th floor of a building.  This test is running indoors.  I rarely see any improvements in the speed throughout the work day.  Any ideas on if this is just due to so many people downtown on Verizon?  I thought XLTE was supposed to solve this problem. My phone is usually showing 2-4 bars of 4G LTE, but the actual speeds are extremely poor. Loading up webpages doesn't even work much of the time.  Other applications like facebook and twitter don't seem to be able to pull updated feeds.  Any chance of getting Verizon to look into these issues in downtown Des Moines?
