Wow I used to have Verizon which was great. Cingular is terrible. I have dropped calls all the time. When I got the service two plus years ago they told me they didnt have a tower in bernal heights but would be upgrading service... its been two years... i am going back to verizon.

Data Reception was excellent for the first few months of operation last year, but since the first of the year I have not been able to stream my favorite public radio stations and TV news. Constant "insufficient Bandwidth" messages.

Don't even bother with T-Mobile in the Presidio. Zero coverage.

As of Tuesday January 23rd, 2007 7:15pm I get NO reception. Have been with T-Mobile since 2005 at this address. Service in the house was ok in parts of the house (2-3 bars with antenna extender added to phone). All of a sudden, no signal at all. Contacted T-Mobile and they are not showing any outage. Customer servicer usually is good, but like the signal, that is gone as well. Very disappointed in T-Mobile for dropping the ball. When I asked them if I can get out of my contract because their service just stopped working they said I would still have to pay the penalty fee. It will still be cheaper to pay the penalty fee than wait until contract is up in July. Trust me, I'll be writing letters to J.D. Power and CBS-5 and CC'ing T-Mobile to recover the fee.

I live on the 41st floor of a highrise facing the Pyramid. I get garbled reception on nearly 90% of call from anyone, whatever their location or carrier. And to make it even harder to come to terms with, T-Mobile has a sales center on the corner. They claim it's my choice of phone. Motorola phone with no identifier as to model. T-Mobile has never worked well for me living in Chicago or SF. But was great living in London.

I just moved here and I get zero bars. This block has always been bad, calls are always dropped when I'm driving. But I moved here from a block and a half away. Things were bad at Oak and Buchanan 3 years ago, but they eventually got better. I'm hoping the same will happen in this case because T-Mobile has the best customer service.

I love my phone, but my calls drop all the time. Overseas with the phone, I didn't have that problem, so I assume it is a lousy set up by Cingular here. I want to move back to Verizon which never dropped calls for me in SF, but I'm not looking forward to the cancellation fee.

I can't talk in my own home without dropping a call. I've called Sprint, and they cannot do anything to help me. I may have to switch to another provider (I've had Sprint since 1998!).

NEXTEL excellent, swear by it beats out any provider in the city of San Francisco, highly recommended.

I get five bars all the time in our basement apartment.
