No issues with signal strength, data transfers or dropped calls. Full data package on both phones used extensively for work and play. Used all over Lakeland, Florida and Caribbean.
I have metro PCS and anywhere I go in the Lakeland area my phone works all the time. I never have drop calls at all ! Only thing is that metro is local service provider. I hope that soon that they will have more metro towers in outside areas
Switched from Alltel and now get excellent coverage inside Publix. 2 weeks now with AT&T and no dropped calls, excellent reception in the Lakeland area. No complaints with Alltel after 5 years, AT&T offered a better plan and phone.
T-Mobile is one of the few providers that get any bars on the first floor of my office - and T-Mobile has full bars. It has great coverage throughout the city. I can get calls, emails, internet, etc while my co-workers have nothing and miss call after call (Cingular is worst - they get no bars and callers are told their phone is not in service)
Nextel has very spotty coverage in Polk County. I just changed from Cingular because their charges for roaming were so high on trips to South Carolina. Nextels coverage is way less than Cingular. I get "No Service" in lots of places in Polk County where Cingular had signals. I think Cingular has good coverage, but really vicious billing although I must admit they didn't hit me with early cancellation of $200 because I hadn't actually signed a contract. I'd be interested to know if one of the fixed price cell service providers like Metro has coverage in Polk County.
Good reception all over town, even works well inside my house, I have no complaints and will stick with verizon.i was with another company that ended in PCS and theyre signals were lousy! so I been with Verizon for 3 yrs and change
I usually get 2 to 3 bars on carter road. Inside my house I get 0 to 2. Over by George Jenkins High School I get full 4 bars while outside and 2 to 3 while inside
