2-3 bars, which even when sufficient to complete an outgoing call, isn't sufficient for person called to actually hear me without breaking up. Same problem downtown LA at Fig. and Wilshire office building. Nothing inside; somewhat better outside. Weak reception -- brand new phone much worse than old one -- anyone use Working Assets / Credo, the green company?

all bars at home, and in the neighborhood. I also get service at work which is in a basement in burbank. can't complain.

Terrible indoors and out. Dropped calls, searching for network messages. Works everywhere else in town it seems, except where I live.

if you go inside a building or house it will drop the call or break up

I've been a T-Mobile customer for a few years now and where they do have coverage its fine. However their coverage is so limited. I get dropped calls all the time. calls go straight to my voice mail, I cant make calls even when I have full bars I get no reception in the building where AT&T does fine. I take the train to and from the Inland Empire and during the ride the coverage is minimal. Its good only in a few spots and terrible everywhere else.

Reception is very spotty and almost never works. I am so fed up - what's the best cell reception in Bel Air?

I work on sound stages all the time. I get NO reception on my iphone when I am inside a stage at Universal or any of the other lots in the area. I'm literally 200 feet from Steven Spielberg's office. Nada. I'm in a crowd of filmmakers all staring at their iphones and cursing. Outside the door I get a couple of bars. Att, this is your core subscriber base. What on earth are you thinking?

Just moved to area from IL, got amazing service out there thinking I would get the same service in a bigger city with more options.. but no... now I get terrible service and am wanting out of my contract! this sucks not having service

Tmobile customer for over 5 years. Reception and quality has been great for the most part. I do get some "call failed" error every now and then but likely the phone not the service as things are fine after restarting my phone.

Reception is good with this phone with never a dropped call and only occasional static. My last phone, a Motorola 551, had inconsistent reception, but this phone has worked well in almost all areas.
