No service inside house, and dropped calls ALL the time, in town {shelbyville} or out, I have more dropped calls then completed ones. Like others, find one spot and stay still. I can't walk from room to room, or outside while trying to talk on the cell. What really irks me, is all the dropped calls and the "blank" calls. I've been with Cingular for many years, and for the past 2 years, I've had nothing but trouble. I'm looking for a new carrier. Can anyone tell me if Nextel is good for this area? Of course, all sales people state, "Sure, we are the best". I think all carriers should allow a 30 day trial period, then have contracts begin after the trial period. I just refuse to sign a 2 year contract, not knowing if the service will work for us or not.
