Very Poor! Numerous dropped calls

I used to have Verizon, and my reception was fine (around 600 S. and 700 E.) until I moved to West Temple and 1000 S. area. Then I dropped calls like crazy and couldn't hold normal conversations. It drove me crazy, so I switched to T-Mobile... SAME PROBLEM... I checked the coverage area maps and it looks like just the block where I live is a little weaker area, and once you throw in buildings, I get one little bar if I am lucky. Sometimes if I have to call somebody and I am on my way home, I sit in the car and finish the call before I go inside, since I know I'll just lose them when I do. My phone does have a little weaker reception than most phones, as my friends with Verizon and T-Mobile sometimes get one more bar than me on their phones. However, most of my T-Mobile friends have to go outside to take calls when they are visiting. My roommate has Sprint and she has never had a problem with coverage at our house. Also, when I am at 1900 S. and 1200 E. area, I also have poor T-Mobile reception. But, my Verizon friends have bad reception at my house and over in the Sugarhouse area, so I don't know what the answer is. The other carriers have a lot of problems too...

T-Mobile's service in the last year-year and a half has improved quite a bit in the Salt Lake Valley. I am happy with my service. thanks,

Purchased cell phone for girlfriend with warranty. Manager of Cricket store on 700 East and 2100 South said he didn't have time for me. He was busy talking to friend about Jazz game. Good thing no contract Thanks T-mobile

Cricket is the worst cell phone servie I've ever had. "unlimited dropped calls" is the norm. Their employees at their retail stores are rude and unfriendly. I'm going back to t-mobile.

Reception is really good but only problem comes when going through the basement elevator.

Utah has crappy cell phone reception.

Nearly all service providers have poor reception in this area. Sprint has improved, but only slightly. If you are moving here, don't plan on using your mobile phone much.

Can't use phone in my home.

No reception in my home. I live within 2 miles of downtown Salt Lake City. Need to drive down to 13th Avenue or lower for signal strong enough to place or get a call. I think Sony Ericson T68i phone may be part of the problem? However, other T-Mobile users unable to use their phones in or near my home.
