In my 3 years with Sprint, I've never had a problem in Weatherford, Dallas, or West Fort Worth (Camp Bowie and Ridglea), but since my recent move to NW Fort Worth off of Bowman Roberts and Cromwell Marine Creek there is almost no reception! I have to make calls outside. If someone calls me when I'm inside the house, it never rings and goes straight to voicemail. Very annoying. A friend came over with T-Mobil and his phone had 5 bars. Lucky for me, my contract is up in November.
I have to talk on my cell phone outside to hope to have a connection longer than 5 minutes as in the house will certainly produce a dropped call. I had T-Mobile working wonderfully but family member got me a discount on the phone and service. Sprint connection works well through out the metroplex... just not very well in my home.
Inside my house, I have no reception. Have to stand outside to make a call. Calls dropped frequently. Reported to Sprint. "Engineering" said there was no problem with network equipment. Must be the phone. When I told them my husband and I have identical phones with identical issue, Engineer said, "it may have been a bad batch of phones." Now, I see that this is a long-standing problem. No towers.
We moved to the area after having great service with Sprint for years in other cities. Now we can't get any reception inside our house and only 1 bar at times outside, but then it drops your calls immediately. I have heard from neighbors that spring knows about this problem for years and has been promising a new tower, yet nothing has happened yet. Just empty promises and we are stuck in contracts that we can't use. I'm switching ASAP. Spring customer service has been worthless despite being a customer for over 7 years... .
Left T-Mobile for them after 9 years do to a lack of new / intresting phones. I wish I never would have done this! T-MOBILE, I WILL BE BACK IN 2 years or less! They say the grass always looks greener on the other side of the fence, will its only greener in patches let me tell you.
The best service that I ever recieved from a cell phone company was T-Mobile! And I will be going back to them in 2 years when my ATT contract is up! I left them do to a lack of new good / intresting phones. I used them from Feb.1999-April2008 and regret leaving them. They also understand CUSTOMER LOYALTY and will do what it takes to kep a customer.
i just moved here to west fort worth area and I bought metrpcs.BIG BIG BIG VERY BIG mistake..as I speak I am emailing several emails to fellow co workers enroute to moving to fort worth texas from austin as I did.I plan to make it my lifes work to Get out and spread the word about the horrible service of metropcs.I would not reccomend this service to anyone and there return or refund policy is non exisintant! Choose another another carrier.I had to borrow my friends phone(Boost Unlimited ) to make a call!
T-Mobile Wing works great in the house and outside. I have EDGE data and haven't dropped any calls. Razor's tend to suck out here, T-Mobile, ATT / Cingular and Sprint Versions have 1-2 bars in the house, and nothing out front. My old Motorola T-720 was the king for reception in this area, followed up by the older V series and Nokia bar phones.
