Sprint

SprintPCS coverage the Charlotte area is very spotty and unreliable. In the Highland Creek area it is aweful, to say the least--you might hear 1 / 3 of the phone conversation. I've even been in D.C. (Tyson's Corner area) and my phone was roaming. How ridiculous... the nation's capital and I'm roaming on one of the largest so-called networks. And SprintPCS customer service is horrendous. Worst of any vendor I've ever been associated with.

I have horrible reception here. Everywhere else -- Independence Blvd.for example I have full bars. I even had full bars in Williamsburg, VA! But right here in this area (close to Eastland Mall), the reception SUCKS.

Weak signal and dropped calls. Sometimes "No service" indicated. Signal varies wildly. Neighbors have swithced from Alltel after experiencing same problem. Their service currently from Cingular with no problem. Have talked to Alltel service who offer no help. I have been a customer of Alltell since 1992. My contract expires in August 2006. Goodbye Alltel.

Part of the AT&T sellout to SunCom. Awful experience at the SunCom office to "update our SIM cards". Took hours, had to switch to new phones, lost all stored contacts, and messages. No service in our home and we only use cell phones! First bill from SunCom was in error over $300! This is wrong. I hope there is a class action suit against SunCom and AT&T - there are a lot of angry customers ready to participate.

Perfect reception in my home and surrounding neighborhood.

Being one of the 200,000 AT&T customers that got handed over to Suncom... . We have had 4 lines for several years, stuck with AT&T. Suncom's reception, customer service, and technical ability is ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE. We will be leaving them asap, once we figure out who can provide the services we were accustomed to. If you are thinking about "Truth in Wireless" be sure to avoid Suncom. Was unaware of what really happened with the AT&T ~ Cingular merger... but dumping 200K of your customers without explaining what was to happen... Remind me to never run a business that way (which I have been unable to do professionally using a suncom network with dozens of dropped calls and poor reception).

Poor signal reception inside ( 0 - 2). Outside a little better - 3 bars. I just switched from Sprint and they where no better as I had about a 60-70% drop call rate with Sprint. I am really disappointed with Cingular's reception - I would have expected better since they have a tower faily close by per the customer service department.

Very bad signal inside the house. Lots of patchy areas around the zip code. Many times, our family plan phones have different carriers when all the phones are at the same place... and get charged for roaming! Can't wait to get out of this hell!

Heading East or West as your about to hit the overpass the call will drop.

incredibly spotty coverage. I know of at least 5 dead spots where I will always drop calls, and it happens randomly a lot more. the phone is also a cheap piece of crap and has fallen apart on me. Sprint also has attrocious customer service. they are the cheapest, but now I can finally afford to upgrade after 7 years.
