Number of bars can vary greatly inside my house. I often have 1-2 bars inside the house, yet calls get dropped, so I often go outside on my patio to complete long calls.

Austin, TX 78731 |
granted that I live in condos that were built in '73, I still can't get calls inside my residence. I drop 4 out of 6 calls, can't send text messages, and standing on my front porch doesn't help. My reception THROUGHOUT the Far West area is really bad. I was happy with my Sprint service while I lived near UT's campus. Since I have moved, i've had nothing but problems with my reception. I have to wait until i'm leaving my condo complex ( I don't know why I don't just call it an apartment... but technically... ) to check voicemails and return calls. I even went so far as to purchase a sprint-badged / branded passive repeater. It ALMOST helped. My roommate uses T-Mobile (i think), and he has few problems. Looks like i'll be picking a different carrier at the end of my contract.

T Mobile had next to no reception during ACL. Most of their competitors brought in mobile cell tower trucks to park at Barton Springs, but they didn't. I live nearby and it took ten tries on average to make calls and 10-30 to send text messages. I have now dropped them for Cricket. Unlimited minutes! Everyone should offer that. I had it for two years in Boulder and loved it. I put 4000 hours on a Nokia, rarely a dropped call. $30 a month now for unlimited text and daytime minutes.

There has been a dead spot in the 5300 block of Fort Benton Dr.for years. I wish AT&T would fix it. Indoors, you get no reception.

Sucks... .which is why I still have a landline in the house. Dropped calls, little to no signal. Seems provider "downgrades" service for older phones to induce you to buy a new handset - anyone know about this?

Boulder Ln | FM 620,
Austin, TX 78726 |
After moving here from NYC last summer, I was amazed at how bad the service is all around. I had Verizon in NY (the only service to have in NYC IMHO), and here I was getting 2 bars. So I thought I'd switch and got some decent reviews from people about T-Mobile. At the west entrance into Canyon Creek on Boulder Lane, there is a spot that drops calls like clockwork. It used to happened with Verizon and it happens with T-Mobile. Always. At the house, I get 1 bar at most, and that is mostly when the phone is either charging or fully charged. As soon as I loose a bit of juice, I drop down to no reception. Driving around, I get 1-2 bars at most, but.. it is still usable and I have not experienced that many dropped calls, or inablity to SMS or email.

I've had some minor issues with Sprint in the past but nothing compared to what I'm dealing with now. By far, the most expensive cell phone carrier and where I live my reception is horrible.

Abysmal. When I'm at home and my phone's in my pants, forget about it. When it's sitting on the coffee table, I will still commonly have calls dropped altogether. Like another poster mentioned, I can stand in one spot and watch my reception go from 5 bars to none, within a few seconds. Sometimes I'll place a call, even when I have decent reception, and the call will just cut out as soon as I make it, with no warning or error message or anything; I just look down at the phone and it's at the menu screen. This is probably partially a problem with the phone software, but I think it has more to do with the awful network. Also have absolutely zero reception within my office at 78723 (NE Austin). Unfortunately I've got another year and a half left on this contract... . but fortunately I'll be in DC for most of it, where reception is okay.
