phone reception is very poor. no bars

I get nothing when I get within 2 miles from home. On RARE occasion, with a full battery, i'll get one bar, but it is like snow in july. I am looking to switch. The only problem is, I really like the phone and the deals. :(

Cannot receive in my house at all. Cingular really needss to add a tower in the area bounded by Grove, Boot and RT 322. This is a large residential area, and the limited tower availability cannot satisfy the need.

In the last 2 months my reception has dropped off terribly. Sometimes when I make a call to other Cingular phones its says" the call cannot be completed, a long distance access code is required" wtf? as well as "all circuits are busy, please try again later" It's not my phone cos' its brand new and its been the same with 2 other phones of mine. Cingular sux right now, period!

I can't get reception in my house, on my street or in our neighborhood. I need to drive to Wickerton and 352 to use my cell phone. I am looking to buy a new cell phone. My family plan is great though. 3 phones $60.00 a month

Outside my reception is "okay", but inside my apartment it is terrible! I have to sit a certain way right next to the window, it's really annoying.

Terrible reception in a very busy location.

Someone needs to build a cell tower at the end of W. Market St.

Its been this way for 5 years. I guess I should give up. Nextel works GREAT there.

I have two phones at the moment, AT&T GSM and a Verizon TDMA. Neither one can make it without a drop from Rt. 3 to Rt. 30 along Rt. 252. I am dying to find a carrier that has better reception.

the amount of droped calls between 11 phones per day is on average of 4 per phone also there is little if no signal in alot of chester and delware counties. With about 20 or so towers the service by Nextel is getting worse by the day. They suck

Nextel has unmatched coverage in West Chester.

I have had three different phones. This is my ONLY dead spot. I guess I should not complain.

I dropped ATT because of no bars in my home. I went with Sprint and nothing changed. My son-in-law comes over wth his ATT phone and gets full bars. I don't get it.

Just a quarter of a mile south of Boot Rd. and Route 100 my signal drops to nothing for Sprint.

At home, while holding two SprintPCS family plan phones in a second floor room by a window, I called from one phone to the other and got a message that there would be a roaming charge to make the call! There is no reception unless I hold both phones high at arms reach near the top of an upstairs window, but call is lost if ring is answered at ear level. No useful PCS to PCS service.

I don't use the phone all that much. But I am quite happy with it. $50 for 550 anywhere minutes lasts me more than a year. Never paid much attention to the bars. The only missing coverage occurs in the middle of a supermarket.

Coverage in West Chester is generally good, but there are bad places to the north. Coverage on Sunset Hollow Rd.is almost non-existent. It's impossible to drive on Rte 100 between Rte 30 and Rte 202 without a disconnect. I would often avoid that part of Rte 100 if I'm on the line.

TMobile will be fine on some days, then drop calls constantly on rainy or overcast days. It's very strange that the weather affects it this much. I've had to stand on my porch in the rain so I don't drop a call with my manager. Verizon worked fine at my home for 7 years and I changed networks only when my company went to Blackberry on TMobile. TMobile also drops calls in west NJ between Somerset, NJ and Bucks county. TMobile coverage stops completely on the west portion of the PA turnpike between Breezwood and Irwin exits, leaving about 90 minutes of drivetime without phone service.

Have to stand near a window to get reception. Calls drop frequently when moving around the area. T-Mobile - please fix !
