Something wrong with this picture..shows four bars on phone, obviously makes no sense! 2 phones in household and neither one of them can carry a call without being dropped or serious cutting out. We even added the suggested Network Extender with no different results. Simply can't have a conversation that makes sense in or outside the house. I always have to use land line here.

I'm able to connect 1 out of every 4 calls. Otherwise, Call Failed. In the Opus business center between Minnetonka, Edina, Hopkins and Eden Prairie. VERY POOR. Never had these issues with Sprint -- in fact, I often have to borrow a colleague's phone to make a call.

Can't even dial out of my house. The calls get dropped while trying to connect, I'm within 2 miles of the store. I called sales person with the concern of such poor service and almost dropped him during the course of the conversation. His suggestion was to come in and sawp out with the Motorola razor v3 phone. He claimed that it had this "crazy antenna" that did well in sketchy areas. I could have stayed "SHOULD HAVE" with verizon and recieved a better deal. reception in the house is one or NO bars.

Cingular (AT&T) is the only service we've used that had good enough reception on the ground floor of our house to accept calls. Verizon and Sprint almost always gave us no signal unless we were upstairs. Often there was enough signal to transmit a voice mail notification, but the actual call never rang through. Note that our house is steel sided (yes, STEEL) which likely dampens the signal! All that being said, if you live in Hopkins, go with Cingular / AT&T for consistent reception, especially in the dead zone north of Main Street.

I need to stand at the edge of my backyard or in the street in front of my house to get reception. Even then it is poor.

I never have problems with reception in my home. The number of bars drop in my basement, but calls are still fine. Never drop any calls.

Have used 10 phones from 3-4 carriers and all are equally bad. Friends with "great" phones will drop calls in my yard. This is a massive dead hole. I get better reception in an office building basement than I do in my back yard. Some lawyer should begin a class action lawsuit for false advertising against any / all carriers as they all say this is a "good" coverage area.

We can't make calls from home because we either can't hear each other or the call disconnects.

I have had my service with Sprint for several years and have had no issues. I have found their Service people to be friendly and courtious. I just convinced my spouse to switch from Verizon to Sprint so we can be on the same network / service.

Dead spot immediately south of Minnetonka Blvd.on Shady Oak Road. If you're on the phone, you're call will get dropped. I've called Nextel, but problems has not been resolved. I can't figure it out because they target business customers who demand good reception.

I switched from AT&T to Sprint. No reception in my office or home. Very poor (1-2 bars) from Minnetonka to Fridley on I-394 up Hwy 100 North. Tried multiple phones and then switched back... what a pain. Sprint salesmen at the Minnetonka store were less than coorperative.
