Absolutely Pathetic - Signal strength 'indicator' seems to follow billboards much better than calls. Cingular's the only carrier I've ever had to routinely drop calls with '5 bars' of signal strength. My guess is that their marketing department has a much better stranglehold on their 'bars' than their towers.

1 to no bars in our Rollingwood home. Half the time, no service at all — other half, sketchy or dropped calls. Customer service tells us "there is no way to know what the problem is or if it will get better." Anyone else in Rollingwood complaining?

The sound isn't terribly clear, sometimes it helps to step outside the house. I can actually walk or ride my bike around the entire neighborhood and yak on the phone for an hour or so and the call doesn't drop, tho I may have to backtrack to improve reception. I get decent reception on calls around my office downtown near the Capitol also. Still, I'm thinking of trying Verizon to see if I can get better clarity, or maybe someone can recommend a better phone. Clarity is particularly a problem with voicemail, sometimes I really can't hear parts of the messages. As a side note, Suncom (an AT&T subsidiary) and AT&T were great back in the day, once Cingular bought AT&T that was the end of that.

This service, perhaps it is the phone often looses calls no matter how many bars I have. I use it for business locally and am considering another carrier.

Like another Sprint user mentioned earlier, I never had any problems with Sprint at my home in NW Hills until around March 2006 -- now, up to 1 / 2 of the calls my wife and I make get dropped! I can't begin to tell you how frustrating it is. I'm willing to pay the penalty to get out of our contract, but it looks like T-Mobile is the only carrier with decent reviews in NW Hills, and I've heard they have problems elsewhere in town. :-(

I am so frustrated, because 9 times out of 10 I cannot dial out on my phone when calling from home. When driving in Austin it's spotty just about everywhere. But where I need it most is at home and the service is so lousy and all I get is a recording saying my call cannot be connected at this time. Well what am I going to do if there's an emergency?! I pay lots of money to Cingular each month and for what?! This is such a rip off and it sucks that I'm locked into a contract with them for a service that doesn't work.

Slaughter / MOPAC intersection, Austin, TX 78749 |
Sun Sep 03, 2006 |
On the way from work all along 290 / 71 West and to MOPAC south from there HORRIBLE reception. During the 20 minute car ride, I drop between 4 and 8 calls - depending how patient I am with calling back as it gets frustrating beyond belief. I am dropping Cingular at the end of the contract, but who I am going to get when everyone seems to have POOR reception?
