Must stand outside to use phone.

Very few reception problems around Sacramento.

No reception with a SLVR L7, 3 bar signal with a RAZR.

No signal all over campus

Most of the time, reception is good-perfect. Occasionally, phone will drop calls with 1-2 bars.

I have had awful reception with my cell phone. I have calls that contantly drop off. I've called Verizon several times to no avail. I'm now trying to use a new T-Mobile Nokia cell phone during this next 30 day trial period. There is only 2 bars on the phone, just as with the Verizon phone. No drop off yet.. but too soon to tell. My sister's Metro PC cell phone is working pretty well in this same area around Marconi Ave. Fair Oaks Blve. Walnut Ave. It seems that one must do a word of mouth search for model and area involved with the various cell phones. There seems to be too many variables. Digital vs. analog.. and B.S!.

Bad reception inside and outside of house. Do not receive calls and unable to make calls.

we have 2 of these phones have never lost call or signal in or out of our house have had t mobile since9 / 05 service has been beyond what we had hoped for

good plan, reception is consistently good in sacramento area. dropped calls on 80-west of sacramento. but other areas I have had no poblems.

Good service. Few problems. Good pricing on the plan. But, if you travel outside california, you are out of luck

Cingular sucks in this region. Every time you try a call - it fails the first time. If you are lucky enough, it connects the second time. Usually, you have be patient for a third try. After you get connected, you've got to shout into the phone like you are talking to some one on Jupiter or Pluto on old simplex, co-axial networks. Finally, all your hard work pays off, and you will understand how frustrating it is to ask your friend to repeat what he said, everytime. I'm not feeling the least pain to break this contract and jump to a new carrier. I'm with this carrier since 3 yrs, lived around Washington DC, recently moved to Sacramento CA. Carrier and coverage was never a problem in all these 3 yrs, but now - the biggest pain.

The other review from this zipcode is not consistent with the whole area. The area around Kieffer (Albertsons) is abismal, but the rest of the Rosemont area is fair.

have no problem at any time, any where

I moved to this neighborhood in November. My Sprint phone only works in my driveway and even then poorly. My phone only works now with the ear bud in. My two year contract with Sprint has six more months to go--Sprint is not about to let me out of it. I spent nearly an hour with Sprint "Customer Care" about the broken phone and the poor service. They flat out don't care and characterize one bar as strong service!

Great reception in all of Sacramento. Worse in Lodi area. Cingular's customer service is evil. I bought the phone when I moved from Stockton to Sacramento. They sent the phone to the new address and the bill to the old address. They then deactivated my phone due to non-payment. I called and they reactivated and waived the $35.00 reactivation fee. The next month they sent the bill to the old address again. I had no way of knowing when the bill was due (internet was not set up in my new house yet). This time they would not waive the reactivation fee even though it was THEIR MISTAKE. I spoke with the manager, but still no luck. Cingular's customers pay for their mistakes! Also, my bill is around $10.00 higher per month then they quoted me and I use about 100 minutes less than my limit. Phone roams EVERYWHERE!

It's all about the phone. I have an old AT&T Nokia phone. But it usually gets better reception than most of my friends newer phones. And we're both on Cingular now.

I always get dropped calls but I get 1 bar everytime.

i get around a 3-5 bars while in this area never had a dropped call

4-5 bars all the time, oh and it is about the phones. I had 0-2 bars with my v400. And once I got my razr. So many bars. I go all around Sacramento with 4-5 bars.

Inside Arden Park or Arden Manor Neighborhoods (E and W side, respectively of Watt South of Arden Way) had poor reception..Verizon drops calls inside my home in. Possible new cell tower at Arden Manor's Rushden Park for Surewest... and Verizon co-hosting here may fix this soon... I drove Arden area in 2004 with Sprint and Verizon phone in my lap, and while Sprint had few dead spots, it was consistently low-scoring, while Verizon had generally higher bars but had some holes...
