Very poor reception on campus, in or out of buildings. Verzion seens to work well, may have to switch.

Poor reception inside house 1 to 0 bars. Outside house maybe on a good day 3 bars. Dropped calls always.

Strong signal on Cingular in this area.

I've been having dropped call issues numerous times over the past week... wonder if the merge has made things worse?

Used to get 4-5 bars with my 3GS but now I can only get a max of 3

I've had my cell service with Verizon since they were GTE and it has always been great. Before Gte I had Cellular One, later became ATT Wireless which is now Cingular. I was not happy because at the time they didn't offer a national plan where roaming calls were including. ATT Wireless didn't suit my needs, I finished my contract and switched phone companies. It's that simple! I think all cell phone companies are great because they meet individual needs but indeed not every company is the same. People have to have in mind that cell phones are not 100% reliable, regardless of the company, and that is just the bottom line. I love my Cell phone as well as Verizon, they have great customer service (very friendly). I take my phone everywhere I go including when I go on vacation!

I get perfect reception but for some reason I get drop calls about 80% of times.

Occasionally there is one bar, just enough to ring an incoming call but cut off right after the phone is picked up.

no reception in my house or around my house. to use it we have to go about five blocks away from my house. good phone /no network.

AT&T Used to work well in LA, but after moving up to San Jose, the reception is really really bad.. At school, bar shows like 2~3 with HSDPA, but it fails to connect to 3g internet. Phone call works just okay in campus.. but when I go to the Target, Costco, Walmart in San Jose area, phone does not work at all. As soon as I get in to the store no signals at all.. AT&T sucks like hell in whole San Jose area. WIRELESS PHONE MUST WORK NOT DEPENDING ON YOUR LOCATION. This is ridiculous. I'll move to VRZW right after my contract ends

Reception very spotty in the majority of areas in the Bay Area. San Jose has to be the worst, I try not to take any calls while on the 101, 87, 880 forget how about I try not to take calls on all the freeways when in San Jose, AT&T is marginal at best. AT&T knows this because they often offer to pay $20 to $30 for your troubles. I got a great phone but horrible service... That SUCKS

Verizon has great reception for me around 1st and Julian area. I saw T Mobile's coverage map and it looks like service is spotty around parts of downtown. I don't know much about Cingular though. Verizon's price is higher than the rest, but, I can't afford to have no coverage (I have no wired line).

My AT&T didn't work on campus but not Verizon. I have no problem in almost all areas.

I used to have T-Mobile and it was great in my apartment. Now I have Verizon and it is so shady. Outside it is good, but in my bedroom it is horrible. I get 2 bars then one, then none, and I've never ever experienced dropped calls in my life. I'm glad that at th end of the semester, when I go home to New London, CT I have great service in my home area. Verizon is just not up to snuff in Campus Village Apartments.

At best, I get 2 bars max. Mostly it is 1 bar and really bad reception. People on the other side always hear static from my cell phone. I am very dissappointed and frustrated with my phone service.

Reception suddenly drops to zero and calls get dropped occasionally, but 4-bar reception always comes back within a few seconds.

Great signal at and around SJSU..

Great, but this phone after prolonged usage, buzzes and buzzes everywhere you go... it's like a GPRS leak or something THE BUZZING!

Nextel phoes have decent reception. At least you do not get dropped calls like T-Mobile. The only place you don't get reception at for the Nextel phone under steel sturctures that are underground.

Good reception even in parking garage.
