I've had Sprint PCS, T-Mobile, and now MetroPCS whlie living here. I had several dropped calls with both Sprint and T-Mobile, but no problems what-so-ever with MetroPCS
I had a prepaid Samsung with Verizon that worked fine in my house in north benbrook. I now have a LGVX3300 and even with a replacement on the phone, I do not get hardly any reception. I'm assuming this is a phone problem because the prepaid phone worked. I'm in a 2 year contract and Verizon says there are holes where you get no reception (standard answer to cover things that can't be explained I think). I will pay my 2 years and eventually find a phone with excellent reception but will lower my package to the lowest price per month allowed and I will not renew. It's sad when you have no reception in your home in the middle of the dallas / fort worth metroplex. Just maybe be honest with me and tell me the phone might be junk. I can live with that and move on.
Cingular is odd. Regularly when sitting at this light my reception will go from 3 bars to 0. The phone will then switch to Roam at 2 bars. Then a few seconds later the signal switches back to Cingular at 3 bars. This all while sitting still at the stop light waiting for it to turn green. ie. Not Moving! I've dropped dozens of calls right at this spot.
Actually this happens while just sitting on my sofa. I'm not even driving in a car. At random times decent signal will suddenly drop and the phone goes to Roam. Then a few seconds later it goes back to Cingular.
Poor service in the Hulen Heights / Summer Creek Ranch Area. Zero or 1 bars indoors and outdoors. Previous Sprint and T-Mobile service had full bars in this area.
This is a CDMA Verizon network. Local reception has always been good with maximum signal strength most of the time. However, the farther west one goes, the weaker the signal. No reception in Young, Palo Pint or Shackelford county where the CDMA signal strength peters out. Roaming indicator displays and the signal is weak or non-existant.
