I am with T-Mobile since 2008. I dont have problem with calls in Gainesville, but when I go to Lake alfred / Orland, there is poor coverage. I had to put my phone next to the window. I am thinking of trying Sprint, but I dont now how good is their service is.

Switched two years ago from ATT to T Mobil... Big mistake, there is no network at all from Williston to Archer and no signal in the Haile Plantation area.Really a safety hazard if you do not have a phone line at home if any emergency happens you will be in deep trouble.

I'm a Sprint user / carrier in which I have the inside home tower to avoid dropped calls at NO charge to me! But... .. In the last 24 hours I have had the worst luck with calls. I call Jacksonville on a daily basis and its been really hard trying to hear that party, because the conversation is cutting in and out. The other party has AT&T, but I'm afraid that if I switch, it won't work in this area; like Sprint. This area has old lines and not 3 or 4G compatable. I guess I'll try switching sooner than later. not 3 or 4G compatible. I have tried other carriers, so I may give AT&T a chance. Lord knows it can't hurt.

AT&T is the worst phone company you could pay for. My IPhone is always on searching or no service inside my house. I have to drive 2 miles just to get an ok signal so I can talk to someone. AT&T just cost me a job because the guy on the phone couldn't hear me and ended up hanging up on me. Thank you so much AT&T

New T-Mobile customer, no reception at all in my house maybe 1 bar outside my door, never saw such poor service before with a US carrier. Coverage map claims "good" service in my area, and the customer service people claim I should have at least three bars at my address. I would have pointed my finger at the phone however if I manually set the carrier to AT&T I have three to four bars - if only I could use their towers.

My service with T-Mobile is terrible. Maybe it's because I am using an unlocked Iphone 3GS but I barely get any service in my room or classrooms, even if sitting next to a window. Often times I see one to two bars when I'm in class. It's only when I'm outside that I have full reception. Go figure.

I get hardly any reception in this area with T-mobile. My roommate has to use a Sprint booster for her service. I can get a signal in a couple of spots in the house, but it is sketchy.

In the last three months reception signals have been horrible. I have lots of no service on my phone and it takes forever to come back on.

According to AT&T they have a tower that needs to be repaired but they are not sure when they are going to repair it but you can pay $199 for a microcell that works with your internet. I have 5 lines and already pay arm and a leg, now they want more money for a problem they need to fix. Their deal is that I pay them $99 dollars, they credit me $100 and then I pay them $19.99 a month for this micro cell, but I only have to keep it for a month. So let me get this straight for the privilege of using my phone, I get to pay you for one months services about $400. So that I can use my phone, and it actually stays on. But yet if I break my two year contract I pay a arm and a leg, but you can violate the contract by not providing quality service and want me to pay additional fees because you do want to spend the money to fix your stinkin tower. Now I have read the reviews on AT&T own website and just about everyone of these microcells after 8 months stop working. I have been an AT&T customer when it was Cingular but I am seriously considering leaving, seems very shady that all of a sudden there are reception issues, well I guess so if your towers are falling apart and your not fixing them meanwhile your are bleeding people dry with prices and buying extra equipment just to make their phones work.
