T-Mobile
I'm mirroring the experience of the Churchill / Blackridge Verizon customer above. Repeated calls to T-Mobile have earned me promises that service will improve soon (never happened), a sympathetic "oh, you live on THAT side of the hill!" and the suggestion that I sign up for another year and trade my Motorola for a more sensitive model. A non-scientific test indicates that Sprint has a strong signal in my living room, where T-Mobile dies.

I get just enough reception in my house that I can't say "no" reception. Most of the time I can't place calls (but minutes get used as it's trying to connect, don't you know), or if I can get through the call will echo, then drop. The biggest problem is when I'll be sitting right next to my phone all day and it'll never ring, but all of a sudden I'll get a voicemail beep and the message will have been from just then, or maybe the previous day, or anytime in between. It just won't ring. I have to walk up the street to get three bars. The kicker is that some family members have AT&T wireless and their phones work fine. So it's not the house. I had even tried switching to a new phone, and it's not that either. As soon as my contract is up I'm switching providers. I don't know if it's Verizon's service or their crappy phone selection (their customer service on the matter was highly lacking), but either way I'm gone.

Reception is generally excellent in the Pittsburgh area. Once in a while the service will ac a little funny, but almost all of the time it's full bars.

In Arcadia court no reception at all, you may make a call but it will soon drop.

I have to be out on the front porch before I can receive or make a call.

Most reception is excellent, but with a few sporadic dead spots around the city and in buildings. Overall good.
