Over the last few months reception in River Market has improved dramatically. Can go all over and never drop a call. Still drop calls at intersection of 635 and I-29 as well as the intersection of Overland Parkway and I35. No reception at a couple of lakes up North. Great reception and internet connection in the rest of the area.
No problems, rarely get a drop call. The problem, I think lies in the phone. My Sanyo is GREAT. When I first moved here from STL I had a Samsung phone which was HORRIBLE. I was getting droped calls everyday, sometimes 4-5 times during one call. I will Never buy another Samsung again ever. I am sticking with either the Sanyo or Motorola.
After over a decade of getting jacked by Sprint I switched to Virgin Mobile's Pay-as-you-go service last December, and I couldn't be more pleased. The phone works well, has decent reception wherever I use it, and gets signal in places a lot of my friend's phones don't, like the middle of a farm field in Cameron, MO. Furthermore, their customer service people understand what "customer service"means, and are always helpful and pleasant. (Plus which, they all speak and understand English). I would strongly recommend to anyone who is sick to death of bad service and surprise fees from Sprint, AT&T, MCI, or anyone else switch to Virgin Mobile!
I can't get reception in my apartment (an old building ) and am looking to switch carriers. The phone and T-Mobile have worked well for me until now, but I can't have a phone that says "seraching -- emergency calls only" when I'm inside, especially since I'm not getting a land line. Very frustrating.
