I get no reception at work or at school! I'm F*#%in' tired of it! I have gone through 5 phones in 8 months because 4 were faulty and lasted less than a month and the 5th is the one I have now that gets hardly any reception (even though it is a 3G! I just want out of my contract and to get rid of them! All the people that I work with get reception and even full bars... I just can't take it any more!

Bad reception. 1 bar in my house and constantly dropping calls. I do not recommend T-mobile.

Addition to previous post: Daughters Motorola Razr also has maximum 1 bar. Incidently, my wife's Motorala (non Razr, model# unknown), never drops calls at home... .only on the road. That phone is on a monthly plan, while the Razr and Samsung are T-Moble To Go refill card service. Could it be that monthly plan phones receive signal priority over refill card phones?

Most calls are dropped. 1 bar on first floor, 2 bars on second floor, 1 bar outside. Does anyone know if Apple's iPhone on ATT is any better in this area? The ATT store promises that it is better since their GSM has a better range than T-Mobile's TDMA

I get great service where I'm at. Maybe its the increase in coverage due to the 3G network but hey it works!

Have been with company for over 2 yrs. Calls will drop when near freeway. Worse when at home. Service will work for a few minutes than I am unable to recieve or make calls for about an hour. This repeats throughout the day. 5 minutes it'll work long enough to recieve the texts I missed but as soon as I call voicemail or contacts, my service fails! The rep onine tells me to use a landline to call my voicemaill or contacts. Unfortunately I have to go to a neighbor to use a landline! Is this why I pay the cell phone company... so I can use someone's phone to see if I recieve a call on my cell phone??! I'm Very irritated with Cingular right now!

Home reception off / on. drops alot of calls lately have been a coustomer since 1995. The past few years I've dropped more calls due to coverage / reception. Sprint keeps saying they are updating the service coverage. But I've had more areas that before I had coverage now do not!

Terrible phone service - nearly every call gets dropped at some phone. The service is very bad in Portland as well.

Verizon has near perfect coverage. It costs more, but if you're a business person who can't be dropping client calls, this is the obvious choice.

Park Tower Business complex on Mill Plain, zero T Mobile reception in any of the buildings. I have to walk 30 feet outside building to check messages. They offered to route signal through my work PC but then said it would cost a couple hundred bucks for the hardware and a monthly fee to use it. Give me a break. We paid $800 to add a signal booster in the office, still no bars. Sprint, Vorizen and Cingular work perfectly in the same office.
