Regular drop-outs... I'm fed up. What I don't understand is this: I drive every day in Manhattan and I know EXACTLY where the drop-out spots are. I always know when to tell the call recipient that I will call him or her back... because we're about to have a "lost call" thanks to Sprint. 79th Between 5th and 3rd. FDR drive just south of Waterside. Etc. It's embarrassing. Can't SPRINT just fix this stuff? It's been years.

Switched to Verizon from Sprint about 11 months after moving to an apartment across from Riverside Park. Sprint had dodgy service at best in my apartment, so I had the change carriers. Verizon has been perfect. No dropped calls and I always have a signal (even in the basement laundry room). I only wish Verizon had Sprint's prices... My Cingular b'berry hardly ever works in my apartment. The unit usually has to be held near a window in order to capture a signal.

T-mobile's coverage is terrible. Outside is ok but once go inside of the bldg. I lose all reception. I used to have Verizon and I didn't have any problem. I should go back to Verizon, but T-mobile's package is much better than Verizon, and don't want to pay penalty for cancellation to T-Mobile 'cause poor reception is their problem, not mine.

I literally need to lean on the bedroom window to get 1 bar. No reception throughout the rest of the apartment. Friends with T-Mobile get good reception.

My phone works pretty well by the windows in the front and back rooms, but not at all in between. I saw a similar comment here from someone on the same street. T Mobile keeps saying theyll send someone to investigate the problem but of course that never happens. Im considering switching to Verizon and telling T Mobile I refuse to pay their cancellation fee due to poor service. But Verizon's rates to text to Europe are so high...

Horrible... Nextel has been having the same issue for months.

I can't wait until my contract is up because I am definitely leaving cingular. The reception pretty much everywhere is horrible. I live in this area and I consistently get 1 bar on my phone here. It is v difficult to make a phone call or receive one.

Sometimes reception dips to 4 bars but mostly it stays at 5. Much better reception here since I switched to a GSM phone. No dropped calls.

Despite 5 bars, in my apartment there are spots where I lose connection and drop calls (19th floor). In elevator or street no problems.

In my office Reception next to nothing.
