Most of East Boston, reception is terrible. I get absolutey no reception at my home. Reception in and out up and down Bennington St. (main st through East Boston) Am looking into getting new phone service, but just heard that Nextel / Sprint might be putting in new tower in this neighborhood.

Nextel completely sucks in this area, and everyone I know hates it. It will jump from 4 bars to none in a second. You will generally drop your call if you are on any longer then a minute. Especially if you are doing business in this area, do not get Nextel.

Great outside. Sucks when in some places, I've been looking around, thinking about adding Sprint Treo 650 for business purposes, great site, good insight, definately something to look up before signing a 1-2 year contract :).

I get absolutely no reception in my building and I'm lucky to get any reception outside. Does anybody have a provider / phone that gets reception in Southie? I had visitors who got great reception, but I stupidly didn't ask for their phone plans.

Terrible, 4 bars is a dream. I'm happy when I'm between 2 and 3, and when I place a call 3 times out of 7 the reception just dies off and I can't hear anything. My text message are delayed greatly... sometime I even receive them over 24 hours later. I get a try again error 3 times out of 5 and to tell the truth this is extremely frustrating. I am greatly dissapointed and overall this provider seems to be a joke.

Sprint is the worst. Do not pay $80 a month for never getting to use he internet or any apps. The customer service over the phone and at stores suck. I will urge everyone who is thinking about it away form it. I'd rather pay the early termination fee.

Very Poor reception in City Point. Surprising that a thickly settled area in the city is so poor. used to have Verizon in this area and reception was good. Sprint should allow their phone to roam in this area.

No reception and calls get dropped, plus cell issue, it likes to freeze at times... ... DON'T DO ITTT, Sprint needs 2 get on the ball! I hate sprint, thinking about switching to either T-Mobile or Verizon, but Verizon is expensive, so maybe T-mobile

Cell phone is low at my house. I have plenty of bars and then it just drops. My phone is not even a year old. In town the phone works great, but in South Boston the reception is very poor.
