I get no reception inside my house.Outside on the patio, I get 1 bar, 2 if I am lucky. I am usually able to make / receive call at the outer periphery of my patio or on my driveway. However, even those calls drop sometimes and the audio quality is poor.
The reception quality is poor - like the person on the other end is gargling. The quality continues to degrade during the phone call. After 2-4 minutes the quality is so poor the conversation must be terminated and a land line used.
I'm unable to use phone at home, inside or out. I don't get voice mail or text at times. I tried ATT because Sprint was equally bad. I'm very dissappointed.
I do not get reception once I am in the house. I miss calls and I have to stand outside if I am on a call when I arrive home. This is frustrating as I sometimes work from home and I don't like to give out my home number but my Cell wont work.
On second floor of an old wooden building (built around 1923) most incoming calls do not even make my phone ring - they go straight to voicemail. Outgoing calls always get dropped within 5 - 10 minutes. Out on the balcony facing south reception is much better, a few calls do get dropped but calls can also be over an hour long. Service is MetroPCS and phone is a Nokia 2125i.
Until a few months ago my Nextel reception used to be almost perfect both indoors and outdoors. This was also true at my office in the Lake St. George area at Tampa Road. But since the merger became complete, my reception has steadily gone downhill. Now, most of my incoming calls go directly to voicemail when I am indoors. I get a lot of beeping indicating a total loss of signal when my phone is stationary and not in even in use. I must go outside to hold a conversation since the drop rate is so high. When my contract is up in July, I will switch to something else.
