Back Bay, Boston, MA 02115 Mon Nov 06, 2006

Verizon works great in Back Bay and seems pretty good throughout most of Boston. I have occasional dropped calls but don't recall having hit a "dead spot" in the city. I am considering switching to T-Mobile because they have better phones and cheaper plans... I'm just not sure how T-Mobile performs throughout the rest of the Boston metro area.

Cingular's always been good in this area at the top of Beacon Hill, along with Verizon (except sometimes indoors). I just wish someone would post about T-Mobile, which I am planning to move to for a new phone.

T-Mobile used to be spotty in Boston but is now great. I even get reception in some T stations and definitely all over the city!

Terrible! I had perfect reception with AT&T, then the merger came. First I had a Motorola v551 - couldn't hear a thing - constantly dropped. Cingular sent me now a Nokia 6102i, telling me Motorolas don't work well with their network - DUH - um, hello - why you send me it to begin with?? Anyway - the NOkia is just as bad. Now my fight continues - they said if it didn't work IN MY APARTMENT, they would let me cancel my contract and not charge me the $175! Now I hope this board will help me choose the right carrier for this area! Unreal! Cingular - LOWERS THE BAR!

In my apartment I fluctuate between 0 and 1 bars. Definitely can't talk at all inside. I have to go outside and walk around the corner where I usually can get a sweet spot of 3-4 bars. But this is in rare locations and in general outside I will have 2 bars.
