I just moved to this area and I am extremely impressed with signal, call quality and data speeds. I haven't set up internet yet so I paired my phone with my computer and it's running 220 kbps on EDGE. Very happy with coverage in the area too, it seems very solid!

I've had T-Mobile for about 2 years and have been very satisfiied. The only time I've had any problems is when I went down to my grandma's town which is a little hick town in Oklahoma. I couldn't get any service there. I wouldn't use Sprint if they paid me. Well..maybe I would, but I'd still use T-Mobile.

Signal fluctuates between two to five bars depending on where I'm standing in my home. I never have reception problems though.

I have come to the conclusion that the MODEL of phone you have makes all the difference, so consider that when looking for new service (consider the PHONE and not just the carrier). Two different phones with same carrier may have different results. If you have a dead area, borrow a friend's phone if its different and try it in that area... you'll see that I'm right. I travel from OPark to KCMO daily and have zero dead areas, period; doesn't matter if I take 135th or 119th, downtown, wherever. I don't recall the last time I dropped a call.

Reception varies - in house, lucky to get 2 bars, usually 1. Standing in driveway, get 3 bars. Driving around, usually 4 bars, only a few dropped calls. Service seems generally ok. No one I know is entirely happy with coverage, no matter what company they use.

I Love T-Mobile, but the reception has just gotten worse and worse. It's almost unusable in Lawrence ks, and a complete wash in Clinton ks,.. Going south on Hwy. 71 in Missouri the reception dies fast, and is spotty for the next 100+ miles... .Changing to Sprint as soon as I can save up 200.00 to cancel with T-Mobile... .been a T-Mobile customer since 2006

Since around July 15th I have noticed a huge increase in dropped calls on my iphone. Walking around the house my phone is searching for the network, finding it, flipping from Edge to 3g, back to no service and so on. Increasing dropped calls around my yard, inside the house, unable to call people because the phone will not dial out or receive calls. Anyone having this problem too? I upgraded to the 4.0 software per AT and T instruction over the phone today and when finally done, my phone was worse. No emails could be read due to network problems resulting in "unable to connect with server" warnings on the phone. Nothing was changed in my address book, it all was synced with my computer and backed up so I would not loose them. All the sudden I cannot get emails or make calls. I drove 1 mile south approx to 95th and Antioch and tried to make a call. The phone worked but upon driving home, my friend on the other end said I was cutting out. As soon as I turned down 81st St.the phone cut out, dropped call again. If anyone is having this problem with their iphone in the area please post it here.

Reception is spotty from my apartment. Have to be close to a window and even then sometimes it won't work. Always get SMS and ring though.

Extremely inconsistent. I've had two phones under this plan (the other being a Samsung E105) and still having the same reception issues. I could be standing in one spot in my house and hear fine, but the person on the other end tells me they can hear nothing at all. I find myself roaming around my home trying to find the right "spot". Outside of my house in the driveway and surrounding areas I hardly hear at all.

I can stand in the parking lot of Rosana Square shopping center, call for pizza take out across the street, and they always tell me I'm cutting out bad. Virgin uses the Sprint network and it stinks!

Inside our house, I get the worst reception of anywhere in 3-state area. The only calls I ever drop are the ones where I run out of battery power, when call is over an hour long.

the reception fluxuates dramatically and at night - no service. more often no service. many many dropped calls, researching other services for comparison... the service is way to expensive to deal with no service, it ends up being an expensive game / app appliance.

White Haven Estates -- 0 to 1 bar is typical with dropped calls occurring all of the time. T-Mobile never advised me that the issue at my home was that there simply is no coverage and they aren't doing anything about it.
