Calls drop all the time. Phone shows that I have full signal but call will not go through frequently. Verizon has always been good to me until I got this phone.

Switched from Sprint a couple of years ago. Coverage was good but, continuosly dropped calls. Coverage is good. Very few dead spots when in the car or outside. Signal strength in buildings could be stronger. Otherwise, hardly ever drop a call and we only use cell phones, usually other persons phone and carrier.

2 blocks from a tower and poor reception in my home? 3rd phone is now offering "somewhat" better reception. Looking for a new carrier when my contract is up.

Well let me start off by saying I am a teenage girl who loves to talk to her friends and fellow classmate and using Virgin mobil is not helping. Every month a waste my mothers money by purchasing a 20$ phone card which will soon be eaten up. My argument with the prepaid issue is it when you run low on minutes your phone just turns off, what iff one day I am a situation where I need to use my cell ohone but I have no minutes left. Every time I purchase a 20$ phone card I could be sa nving money for a contract which would let me talk free nights and weekends.

T-Mobile works just fine. Everyone who puts comments on here are just mad about not getting reception in specific spots. For the most part, I get great reception everywhere in Richmond. I can understand the frustration with no reception in your house, so test it out before you purchase the phone! For the price and comparable reception to Verizon and Cingular, you can't beat T-Mobile.

I lose numerous calls in my house near WH Blvd.and Forest Hills. The reception was no better with Suncom, so I suspect the area's reception area is generally bad.

Dropped calls constantly. Reception seems to be good during travels around the state, but very bad in the home office. They have towers all over this city and can't give me good reception where 295, 64, and 95 meet. I'm changing to Verizon. Spring customer service is terrible. Spent my whole afternoon in the Broad St.location, where there were 30 people waiting in line, to have them tell me something I already knew. The assistant manager told me that they are always that busy... .you think they would hire more than the 6 people to work the floor.

I have been a Sprint PCS Customer for almost 6 years now and have been very happy. In Innsbrook area, I have poor cell reception while at work, which is not acceptable.
