I drop calls every single day, multiple times. I can only use my phone if I'm near a window or on the balcony at home and even then, its kind of sketchy. I'm guaranteed to drop calls at least three times every day on my way home from work on 55...its not like its some rural road, its the stevenson expressway! I hate turd-mobile and would not recommend it to anyone. i've been counting the days until my contract expires for two years now.

No indoor reception. I have to walk across the lot to get outdoor reception. Other carriers are ok inside and out.

Get no to intermittent reception, chronic dropped calls. No reception in our second-floor condo, no reception from Ryan Field to Linden "El," dropped calls on Central St. Completely unreliable. Called tech support and were told that we should be getting service. Called a second time and were told that one of their towers is down (as of May) and that it will be repaired in December. We were told we could purchase a signal booster and pay a monthly fee to maintain it. Why can't we get that for free? "We cannot offer complimentary signal boosters because they are in such high demand from our customers." Despite the competitive pricing, I would rather pay more for service that works than the amount that we pay Sprint for a smartphone that is useless for anything but texting.

Reception in Northwestern's Pancoe building is very bad. Occasionally by the window I can get signal long enough to be alerted of a voicemail / textmessage. Outside of the building it picks up signal, but dropped calls are very common.

AT&T has NO SIGNAL, 2000 new students, their parents and friends can't get cellphone signals from AT&T. They will switch to other carrier if signal is NOT improved around the Northwestern University.

Get no reception in Tech or in Norris. Seems like only Verizon or Sprint users get anything inside the building.

I don't believe I've ever seen a single bar while inside my apartment. Most incoming calls fail to generate a ring. More than half the calls I make from inside are lost after three or four minutes. Reception on the street is better, but still very poor: one bar at most.

Northwest and west Evanston reception is terrible to non-existent. Especially from about 2600 Central through Central / Crawford. Anything along McCormick Blvd. north of Main is poor. As is Ridge Rd. from Central / Crawford to north past Lake Ave. in Wilmette.
