Horrible reception at two spots on Hwy. 99 along the Seattle Waterfront. I drop calls there every day. Heading North on 99 calls drop right about the ferry terminal and don't work until you pass outside of the tunnel.
Pretty much 5 bars and 3G anywhere in the UW, and around the city. Downtown 5 bars and 3G too, only in some hilly suburban areas do I encounter between 3-4 bars. Otherwise perfect!
Tmobile is crap in northern Ballard. I used to live below 65th and never understood when friends complained about black holes of coverage in Ballard, but then I moved. My boyfriend has a crackberry (also tmobile) and has trouble at his house too, it's so frustrating. I'm not under contract any more and am looking into the choices.
I rarely ever have problems with my Verizon service no matter where I am in the Seattle Metro area. Verizon is a great service. I pay a bit more than I would with other company's plans, but it is entirely worth it.
In an apartment building usuing (trying to use) verizon. Terrible! No reception unless outside. Drops calls after a few seconds. Vrrizon, where are you and don't you care?
Just in the last two weeks, I've been receiving dropped calls on EVERY call I make, as well as complaints from people on the other end that I am cutting out. My bars can range from 1 to 3 and this has never been a problem in the past. I hope that Verizon will fix it because I still have 5 months left on my contract and I can't even finish one cell call.
Six feet from wall of windows in my office. Can't load web pages, stream music, or otherwise do anything that requires the data or cell network. Though the phone rings, I can't answer phone calls because they usually dropped immediately. Pathetic.
