US 29 / Randolph, Silver Spring, MD 20904 Wed Sep 15, 2004

I moved from Sprint to T-Mobile because of their awesome plans. But my calls drop everywhere in my house, especially in the basement, and while driving everywhere. Sometimes when people call me from a landline they get a busy signal. But when people call me from a cell phone they get through to me. That is unless the call drops, horrible.

Trouble has only been within the last few months. Reception in this area has declined; once outside the immediate vicinity, reception is fine.

Viers Mill / Ferrara, Silver Spring, MD 20906 Fri Jul 02, 2004

Almost no reception here at all. I have to be outside to even get a call through. Any rain or even high humidity makes it pretty unusable.

Severe dropouts and no-sgnal along Arcola near University. The entire Kemp Mill area has terrible reception for AT&T.

Very weak to no signal at all. Phone does not switch to the stronger Cingular signal. Seems like AT&T Wireless doesn't have a roaming agreement with Cingular in this area.

My phone drops calls or no reception. I have placed numerous calls to Cingular and they tell me my area is a low to medium reception area. I will likely end up having to switch to Verizon due to living and working in a Cingular Dead Zone.

Briggs Chaney Rd at Rt 29 / Briggs Chaney West to New Hampshire Ave., Silver Spring, MD 20904 Mon Feb 23, 2004

an extensive "dead zone" for TDMA Cingular service, known to Cingular. It extends about 2 miles north on Rt 29 from Briggs Chaney road and about 2 miles west from Rt 29 on Briggs Chaney. Cingular "has no plans to do anything about it" as of 2/23/04 If you have the same problem, call them!! Enough calls may get some action.
