The only dead spot I have is inside my home, I have a metal roof.

I live out in Hernando Beach never lose a phone call. Alltel service workes where the others don't. Nextel,At&T,cellular. verison tried them all only Alltell service does the job. I do all my long distance calls with it and never get dropped. I am using an older anologe, digital phone. Doesn't take picture but it sure works good.

Very good reception both in house and outside, also works in local Lowes at RT 19 and south of RT 50 intersection.

I have had AT&T's TDMA for 3 years now and it has been the best service that I have found yet. There GSM network is horrible. Verizon and Alltel drops about 90% of my calls made from my house and T-mobile goes in and out with a maximum of to bars of signal. AT&T's TDMA is the best for me but they do not any longer make the phone for that service so you can't get a camera phone.

Love the phone, love the service, love the reception.

In my House Nextel, ATT, metro PCS = EPIC FAILS,. my friend came over with his wife and both got T mobile, he has a free phone and she has a avg phone.. Both getting 4 out of 5 bars.. I call that Really Good.

I've had Alltel since the summer of '07. Best coverage out of my experience with Nextel, Verizon, and T-mobile. My husband is on a tree crew and he often works in remote areas of Hernando and surrounding areas, and he frequently is the only one with service. Last week his climber fell 35 feet out of a tree and had to be Bayflighted to a Tampa trauma center. My huz was the only one that could call for help. My advice if you want good service, and a fairly priced plan with My Circle-get Alltel NOW. When they merge with Verizon the My Circle plans may not be available for new customers, but old contracts will be honored.

have had altell for over 10 years and have lived in pinellas and pasco. Travelled all over the country. Only bad reception is in the mountains of N. Carolina and the Rockies. Would not switch.

I get good reception here and in the house better then my Nextel or Sprint

No problem with sprint[ virginmobile] Had ATTwhen I lived in St. Petersburg but had many dropped calls. So I changed and am happy. I think many problems are the result of the poor phones,them self.!

Did have good reception at this location. Then in December of 2008 reception got terrible. Inside or outside the house makes no difference. Call will fade in and out then wil loss connection after 5 minutes or so.

cell phones ok but the data service is weak, 86 to 95 db. one has to be patient here.

Metro's Android phones are horrible and their service is even worse. They do not even have 3G in this area ??? It is so pathetically slow, you could look up the info you need in a book before you get any data back from Metro. On another note, Metro's customer service and technical support is beyond horrible. In store and by phone. It is next to impossible to get in touch with them, and once you do you get someone who has NO knowledge of the cell phone industry ??? or any of their phones. I bet if I called 5 times, 5 times I never got an answer... that is being conservative. If Metro was the only carrier available, I would rather use smoke signals.

I live in Silverthorn and as soon as I drive in through the gates I have no signal on my cell. Then it will be intermittant as I drive through the subdivision. I have no signal inside my house either. The rest of my family has the same problem so the phone is not the problem, it is AT&T's problem.

Horrible reception, dropped calls, no one can hear me.

This seems to be a dead spot, a mile in any direction and you have maybe average reception. I had an old AT&T Nokia (anolog) which worked OK but with the new Cingular Digital I have little or no reception in my home. I'm returning the W300i and am going to try Verizon due to a neighbors strong recomendation. He has an LG phone but I don't know the model. I'm wondering if these small phones don't have an adequate antenna. My wife has just rejected the phone due to it's small size.

I'm fed up with Sprint. My plan runs out in 3 weeks and I can't wait. My reception was poor, thru 5 different phones, customer service was poor, at best. I thought my contract would never end. I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy.

I use Nextel for work. Recption used to be good in this area. After the Sprint merger it went down hill. I usually can't use my Nextel in the house. I used to have Sprint and had no reception within 1 / 2 - 3 / 4 of a mile from my house. My personal phone is a Verizon and it has no problem. I drive truck in the local area and never have problems with my Verizon service. Sprint and Nextel SUCK. Sprint and Nextel, can you hear me now? Yes. That is because I am calling from my Verizon phone!

Love T-Mobile service, never had any problems talking to them, prices are good. Reception is great in town, but sucks out by where I live.

Was very good, with the older phones. Started having problems with dropped or losing signals about 6 months ago, but nothing too extreme. Upgraded phones 2 months ago, alot of times, can't dc, dropped on calls, can't phone out, very poor reception. Tested old phone and new phone, new phone loses more bars than the old phone does. Am going back to my old 88s until I can come up with $400 to cancel the contract. Unfortunately, not many other providers do well in my area. Nextel was the only one. Have tried att, cingular, alltel, verizon. Maybe just use my onstar??
