AT&T Wireless (TDMA) 0 Out of 5	Capitol Express Way / Aborn, San Jose, CA 95138	Fri Apr 23, 2004
AT&T Wireless (TDMA) 0 Out of 5	I just canceled AT&T because of the bad reception. I used to live in East Bay where reception was just so so. After I moved to San Jose, I completely lost signals. Bad thing is that AT&T won't let me discontinue the service till the end of this billing cycle. I have to pay for nothing!! No wonder they are losing $$!! Bad coverage with bad service.

T-Mobile 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: Sony Ericsson T300	I am so frustrated with my tmobile service here. I just moved back after a few years. I use to live in Davis, Ca where reception was fine but here it's down right terrible. I drop calls constantly. When I do recieve a call I can never hear the other person. When I make calls they don't even go through most times.
