Reception in North Beach is rock solid. There are spots in the city where calls get dropped, but they have improved. I tried T-Mobile recently and it was absolutely horrible. I called customer service to point out that I had no service in my apartment and they told me I could request a new antenna in my neighborhood. Yeah, right. In any case, I've had Verizon, Cingular, and T-Mobile. Every one has its flaws, but I'd stay way clear of T-Mobile in this area. Their reception is so bad it's a joke.

Haven't had any reception problems. Voicemails and text messages always get to me straight away. Use in other parts of the city have been problem-free, too. In sum, drama free.

I get all bars all over the City and have never had a dropped call. I have been with Cingular / ATT (TDMA) since 10 / 2002. I lucked into a great plan with a lot of minutes ($35 for 750 minutes). Since Cingular and ATT merged I haven't heard anything good about the combined company. I love my plan and service. I just wish that I could upgrade my phone. But if I change plans (probably to Verizon), I would never be able to switch back to the Cingular / ATT TDMA plan I'm on now. Guess I'll stay on it until they convert those towers.

I get generally good reception with Nextel all over San Francisco and the East Bay except in the Oakland Berkeley Hills. There are a few dead spots but mostly it just works. Marin County is another story. Outside of the Hwy. 101 corridor it's mostly no service.

I live in a "flatter" area of SF and my reception has been consistently good with both Cingular and the former AT&T Wireless GSM.
