I have had Nextel for two years and cannot wait to switch. I have had nothing but problems with all 5 of my phones. Would not recomend nextel-sprint at all. Customer service has also been poor always having tower problems that is out of their control. I have never had a phone that has had as many droped calls on main roads I-5, Hwy. 14, I-205. Stay away from nextel-sprint

When we switched from AT&T to Cingular the reception slowly decreased until now we have nothing. We can't use our phones at all. The reason we purcharsed cell phones was because our land lines are out a lot in this area and we needed another way of communication.

T-mobil tower is right at corner of 9th St. E and 182nd, but once you turn onto 9th St. E ( which becomes 12th St. E ) it disappears completely - phoof! GONE. T- Mobile is useless all around North Lake Tapps, in all the winding roads. It drops entirely at various spots down 182nd ( Kersey Way ) into Auburn. It's good AT Game Farm Park, but gone completely 1 block either direction from the park... Good most places in fact, except that whole stretch from Howard Rd.in Auburn up to, and around Lake Tapps. Comes in fine again, at Bonney Lake at Hwy. 410. CINGULAR comes in 5 bars at my house ( near the middle school ), and I've seen that on several different CINGULAR phones. My friend's VERIZON also comes in in my neighborhood OK - not as full as CINGULAR, though. Basically, T-Mobile comes in very strong almost everywhere, but when it drops, it drops hard. But CINGULAR works even in the winding hills around the lake.

In my home I have NO reception whatsoever. Ouside seems to be OK

I just moved here from Tacoma, where I changed from Sprint because of the same problem, no reception! Well I cant get ahold of my girls incase of a problem, they cant even go down the streen to get a call, I have found out though that if you put in a trouble ticket, and that comes back and says that there is a service problem that is a loophole that can help you get out of your contract with out paying fines, which I am looking into, but I need to find a provider that works where I live now.

Only get reception outside or upstairs

I have T-Mobile And I get nothing where I live.my son. husband.has Cingular they have bars up the but. t have to go outside my house in the cold.that sucks.so I think I will switch to cingular. every one I know that has Cingular has service..i don't think anyone. gets much service at the bridge.i live on Oak Harbor RD. T-Mobile sucks.

Either no reception at all or (pricey) roaming on Sprint from my street-level apartment. Got a T-Mobile phone and got zero reception. Trying Verizon next?

My wife's calls always drop on Kent-Kangley at about 201st and can't get anything east of there. My Nextel works fine.

have to drive a mile or so to get reception
