Guarenteed dropped call within one block of my home. Very spotty reception within the house.

Ever since I have got T-Mobile I have been so happy with it! The guys at the store on oracle were great and really helped me out! I will be with T-Mobile for a long time!

Cingular just plaind sucks!

I hate cinglur had AT&T and then they change have no reseption at home. Have droped calles all the time everywhere.

The coverage map on Cingular's website is not true in the Tucson Area. It is ashame that I can not use my phone in certain building or stores. Yet other carriers seem to work better.

All over Tucson is a bad area for The New AT&T aka "Cingular" wireless service. They know it, but seem not to care. The last time any upgrades to towers were made was a few years ago. When asking any customer service person they will tell you that they are putting up towers all over (but not in Arizona of course). If you ask them if they plan on upgrading there system here in Tucson they'll say of course hopefully by the end of the year. There now has been too many years and I'm still waiting. This service works great in my house but when I leave it the signal goes up and down. I don't drop calls because I can not make any. If you read Cingular News Press you'll read how much money is being spent elsewhere, but not here.

Both my wife's Nokia, and my LG phone experience pretty poor reception near our home (and the general area) in Saguaro Hills Estates, just north of Snyder, about a mile east of Catalina Highway. That said, Alltel's customer service has been great, and they've worked with me when I've exceeded my minutes, so I've continued to stay with them for 2+ years (compared to Verizon, who I had a horrible customer service / billing issue which almost made it to a collection agency!)

Qwest uses the Sprint network. Even with what appears to be a reasonable signal, I get dropped calls from inside the house. The audio quality is also poor, with short dropouts. I dont know how much of this is an issue with the system or the phone as it has no external antenna. I used to have perfect operation with the old AT&T TDMA system, but thats progress.

I don't even remember the last time I had a dropped call or no service. I even get reception in Walmart now.

Wow! I can't believe all the bad mouthing about Cingular. I have used Cingular for over two years without a problem. However, there are definitately a few dead spots (like Wal-Mart and Home Depot) where reception drops from 5 to 1 bar (sometimes zero). My wife has the exact same phone and she doesn't experience any dead areas at all. Even when we are standing side-by-side at the same location, her reception will be perfect where I cant make a call. Sounds like a phone problem to me and nothing to do with Cingular. In my home I always have five bars and I live in a steel frame house. Personally, I've used four different carriers over the years. Cingular is the only carrier out of the four where I have never had a dropped call. I like Cingular and love the rollover minutes.
