Verizon is by far the best network in this area. AT&T sucks! I had so many dropped calls and horrible call quality. Verizon rocks here.

1 Out of 5 (1 star) | Cira Centre - 2929 Arch St., Philadelphia, PA 19104 |

While I usually have 5 bars, I have rated the reception poor because of the poor call quality I receive at this location. It is my office, which is pretty high up in the Cira Centre. While my phone almost always shows full strength signal, it is very difficult to reliably make or receive calls. On many calls, the voice breaks up and at other times, I have trouble getting a call to go through. Most problems seem to be correlated with lunch time and the 4 pm - 6 pm. Definitely frustrating to not be able to reliably use my cell phone at the office.

3 Out of 5 (3 stars) | Radwyn Apts (Landover Rd. Side), Bryn Mawr, PA 19010 |

I switched to AT&T from Sprint when we moved into the Radwyn Apartments. With Sprint, I could not make a call from inside our apartment unless I was roaming. With AT&T, I usually have no problems at all making and receiving calls. The only weird thing is that the bars on my phone regularly go up and down from one bar to full strength. I am guessing the bars go down when network usage is high, but I am not sure. Regardless of the strength, I almost always seem to be able to make a call without any problems - once in awhile a dropped call or some minor static, but that is not the norm. Overall, I am satisfied with AT&T - much better than Sprint for the Landover Rd. side of the Radwyn Apartments in Bryn Mawr.

VZW is slightly weak in this area, but even though I'm only showing 2 bars the quality is great and never lose reception outside. When inside some buildings the signal becomes iffy. (0-1 bar). Inside a residence though, I see a slight improvement (bar wise) to 2 bars. But again the sound quality is equal to when my phone has full bars. So, overall no complaints except for high prices!

Overall Verizon IS the best. However, this particualr area is a weak spot on VZW's coverage area. Good reception outside and iffy signal inside, but even so rarely drop a call and call quality better than 5 bars with AT&T.

Outside is poor reception but you can hold a phone call, inside you have to open a window or get cut off every 10 seconds. It is an old building.

I have been ill since the advent of wireless technology, especially so since the Telecommunications Act of 1996 was passed and the number of towers increased exponentially. I urge you to google the Bioinitiative Report. My pets were dying, my ex-husband developed a brain tumor, my sister's cat developed a spinal cord tumor. These signals are lethal! I can't believe how many of you are complaining that there aren't enough towers!

0 Out of 5 (0 stars) | (Chestnut Hill) | Mermaid Ln and GermanTown Ave., Philadelphia, PA 19118 |

I live in Chestnut Hill on Mermaid Lane and walk my Dog every night. I find several blind spots with AT&T service. As I walk towards GermanTown I dropped service completely for a block and then it picks up a week signal at GermanTown. Did the same thing with T-Mobile and Sprint, Verizon was the best but I would drop signal completely in my house with them which was a whole differnet issue. No provider has been perfect and I've had the big Four and can only say you get what you pay for. Verizon is the best overall, AT&T is better in some places and has a few extra's. Verizon has much better cust. serv., not better than T-Mobile but the service with T-Mobile was no where near Verizon. Currently I am with AT&T, mainly for the sim card and ability to switch phones freely.
