I live in an apartment off of Paces Ferry / Cumberland / East-West Connector area. Until now I have only had my T-Mobile phone (No home phone). I have had no problems in my area. Also, I work off of Windy Hill, no problems to report there. Although coverage could always be better (in the middle of the building / bathroom etc... ), I have no serious complaints!
Reception indoors isn't the best. I've only been with T-Mobile for about a month, and I love their service. According to the C.S.R reps they're working diligently to provide their customers with more towers and better reception! T-Mobile's the new kid on the block... I'll give them the benefit of the doubt. So far I'm satisfied with the V188 phone, although I'm currently eyeing the Motorola V330 *can't wait to get that one*
Service in the Roswell Rd / Sandy Springs area is pretty good except in our home. The reception / signal improves dramatically as you move up towards buckhead, midtown and downtown where the signal's at its peak. :) Overall I'm satisfied with T-Mobile because they will only get better. Keep in mind they haven't been around as long as Verizon, Cingulair and Sprint. So far so good... great customer service!
I can be driving on Briarcliff Rd. with a full signal, then the next minute, if there are trees, bushes, or anything like that, the call gets dropped... not once, but 3 times. I have regretted ever going to Cingular a year ago and as of next week, I am going back to Verizon.
In this general area, the service ranges from 5 bars down to 0 bars. This is a hilly, very residential area, and I suspect that it's difficult for the cellular providers to put in new towers (no one wants them in their backyard). You can go one block in either direction for a dramatic change in the reception.
