I have AT&T and never have problems in this area. Voice and data are great. I always drop calls in downtown los angeles though.

I am sick and tired of paying Verizon for no cell at home My husband has an OLD... .. LG Phone with great reception... I even tried getting a refurbished one of his model... . no good... ! Didn't work either what does one have to do to get service from Verizon or some help... ... ... ... it's been years, and I am getting sick and tired of this! I don't want to pay extra for a booster, when I'm paying for an inoperable phone from home! Disgusted and at my wits end... ... ... ... ... ..Important messages have been foregone due to poor reception Verizon, step up to the plate and DO SOMETHING

Difficult to keep a call without dropping. AT&T says reception is good and not a problem on their end.

I love Sprint and generally have no trouble using it throughout the Los Angeles Area from Pasadena to the West Side or to the Valley. But when it comes to Altadena it very poor. Its been poor for years and unlike other carriers like Verizon or T-Mobile, Sprint can't or won't solve the problem.

AT&T service in Altadena is terrible. As you drive across Altadena there are many dead zones. Do not use AT&T if you live in Altadena.

Had Verizon and that dropped calls perpetually, voice mails didn't show up for days. Have AT&T now and at first it was OK (not great, but far better than Verizon). That lasted a couple of months and now it is almost as bad as Verizon was. Walk around the house - on the south side the reception is better, in desperation I move to the driveway or backyard, but that's not fantastic either.

Verizon: I have tried a good number of cell phones from Verizon... .. to no avail, this is the very first time I am having such a terrible time with reception at my house in Altadena, Cal. The strangest thing is: my husband has an OLDER phone from Verizon LG, I thinks it's a 5500 but nothing fancy... just a utility phone... Now why does that phone get great reception in our house, in Altadena just all over???? The new phones I tried have all failed... ... I am using my old Samsung which gives me a reading of good reception however people on the other end say I Can't hear ! Recently I returned a phone that was offered free except for taxes, it was considered an early upgrade... since returning it, I assume I still have that opportunity for a free upgrade. Do you have any suggestions for me? Thank you B.Matsumoto

All incoming calls drop within 30 seconds of answering. Cannot make outgoing calls.

Almost always calls drop after I answer incoming calls within 30 seconds. Cannot place outgoing calls.

I used to live in Eagle Rock using Sprint with no problems. Moved to Altadena hills area, and it's known around the block that this area is a dead zone for phone reception. My landlord and roomate have Verizon, and receive spotty connection, but it's better than nothing. Sprint is 0% unless I drive a mile from the house down into the lower parts of lake. I'm switching to Verizon.
