I 5 / 5 bars in my area even in my apartment I have nevered dropped a call

Metro PCS has provided me with more conisitent coverage than any other carrier I have used (Sprint, Nextel, AT&T, Verizon). There seems to be a dead spot for all of them at NE 820 and Beach when you are exiting to Beach going west.

I live less than a mile from a Sprint Store south of I20 in City View. I get nothing. You'd think I lived in BFE!

I live less than a mile from a Sprint store south of I20 in City View FTW. I get nothing!

have to drive a mile down the road to get reception

I have had Sprint for 12 years in this are I only have problems around the NASJRB over than that it is pretty clear all the time

Practically a dead spot for at least a half mile radius from this intersection! If you have a phone that has great RF performance (Nokia, Motorola and maybe HTC) you can expect to get average reception on GSM and below average reception on 3G while outside - inside that will drop to poor reception on GSM and mostly no reception indoors - yes, I tested Nokia 6800's and Motorola V3's too (all, you will note, non-3G phones). If you do NOT have a great RF performing phone then you will get below average reception to poor reception on GSM and poor to no reception on 3G - inside that will, again, drop to poor to no reception on GSM and mostly no reception on 3G. In any case your 3G phone will hand off from 3G to 2G and back again several times an hour.

phone calls often have intermittent clarity. sometimes call are dropped.

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... .

Came from Metro Pcs, they suck! Now I have T-Mobile they are awesome! I never drop calls... ..

Calls dropped every time used on Brentwood Stair and Oak Hill, VERY inconsistent reception in home on Azteca Drive. Calls dropped daily.

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.

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.

Very decent service from T-Mo at Southwestern Seminary. Service is better than Verizon in the same location.

I switced from Cingular to Verizon on the reccommendation of Consumer Reports that Verizon had the best reception America wide for when I travel to the East and West coasts. That has not been my experience. My reception immediately dropped and I almost coulnd't get reception at all in my Hemphill studio with a cell phone tower right across the street! It's poor in my house also. When I drive around small town areas of Texas in the Panhandle, West Texas and South of FW, the reception is mostly non existant. When driving with friends or realtives in W. TX, they get recption on Sprint even in remote areas. I'd love to know what cell phone works best in Texas and on the coasts.

Verizon gives me 0 bars inside my house, 1-2 in the far corner of the backyard if the weather is favorable. After having such bad to non-existant service for the 2 year contract, I have found that I don't really need a cell phone after all. So I'm cancelling service when the contract ends in December. Free again!
