No reception since saturday. Kills my battery. Why has there been no announcement made?

2 handicapped and a 2 year old child and Sprint says they cant do anything. technical center will report problem again. towers down for 6 days already.

Today is tuesday. since last thursday, can not call or receive have to drive several blocks away and then it only will work if roaming is okay'd. called sprint, they say 3 towers down, said that last week.

reception is horrible on this corner. I live 4 blocks away on 28th and Pear St. and its awful there too. Pls put up a tower around here! cheers, 10yr + SPRINT customer

Thank God for Sprint in L.A. It works well for me from Hollywood to Santa Monica and everywhere in between. There is a problem in Venice, but other than that - it's great!

The signal has been pretty consistent. I always have atleast 4 bars wherever I go(indoor-outdoor): Mid wilshire,brentwood, westwood, midcity, hollywood, downtown LA, Long Beach, Redondo, Santa Monica, Century city, China town.However, I have noticed some dead spots in East Los Angeles Area( 90040)... but the phone typically connects with Verizon wireless when that happends(Interestingly enough Verizon customers dont have such options-its either there network covers u or your out of luck) Ive read a lot of issues pertaining to the ATT network in here. Ive actually looked into the issue before and concluded one thing: Their network is just beyond overloaded. The company is taking in more subscribers at a faster rate than the actual physical growth (addition-upgrade of their equipment) of their network. Its not an issue of SURFACE AREA COVERAGE.Theyve placed a lot of towers to cover the surface areas of the city. In fact, I think they have more towers in the city than any other carrier. Theyre equipment just cant handle the traffic stress. Verizon aswell is facing similar issue due to a different cause: FCC is coming down hard as far as spectrum effects to the public and has forced the company to actually take some towers down. All in all, Im actually pretty contend being in the third largest, in reference to number of subscribers(not physical network size), wireless network. My network is never congested-busy, great coverage, and best data service, in reference to quality, the common cunsumer has available.

Sprint has really good coverage throughout the West LA area including SM, Venice, and Mar Vista.

I'm in the first floor apartment. My Sprint cell phone kicks into "Digital Roam" mode. Still, I have zero reception.

1st floor apt dropped calls dropped 70% of the time Sprint sucks

in the last few months I've had 1-2 dropped calls but otherwise Sprint has been consistently consistent.

We moved seven blocks, from Ashland and Third (near Main) to Ocean Park Blvd. just east of Lincoln -- and our Sprint service died, almost completely. Of course, it was never pristine, not like the Nextel service we switched out of at Sprint's suggestion after it bought Nextel. Spring was cheaper. We bought in. Now we're cancelling our Sprint service mid-term (Sprint admits it can't service us) and getting another carrier, pronto.

Reception has always been excellent for me. Rarely any dropouts.

Sprint PCS sucks. I have called to complain multiple times, usually they drop the call when i'm complaining! they told me if you do not get reception in your house,they cannot charge you for breaking the contract. I will switch to a GSM network as soon as the phone I want is released! Sprint has no service on the west side of l.a.

I get great reception all around main st and in my apartment. almost always 3 bars... once in awhile the call drops, but this has become very rare.

0 or 1 bar in my 2nd floor apt. Tons of dropped calls. Sucks.

Nearly perfect reception from my 4th floor apartment. I'm line of site to the tower at the intersection of Lincoln and the 10.

Terrible. Lots of call go direct to VM or worse just disappear into thin air. Sprint is awful. I switched to Verizon; it's much better.

No reception in my apartment, and there's a Sprint store 2 blocks away. Sprint sucks.

Almost never any reception inside...sometimes I have to walk up the hill to 6th St to get reception at all. Calls dropped often in Santa Monica.

I barely get any reception anywhere on my block. Don't get Sprint PCS if you live up the hill from main street in Santa Monica

Usually 4 bars indoors, sometimes calls drop..Very good for indoors.
