Coverage Reviews for Charlotte, NC 28269

Rating | Carrier | Zip Code

Sprint

Hard time making or receiving calls inside the house. Data is very slow. VZ works well at our house but I dont want to pay x2 what I m paying now. The only reason I m still with Sprint is the Sero Account that is very cheap. Also, I live in LTE area but I have yet to experiance it! I hope they do something about it soon.

Sprint

In the last few months I have noticed a big improvement in my data connection. My data connection used to be horribly slow during rush hour to the point of being unusable, but I noticed that they have updated their towers with something called EHRPD. Now my mobile data is MUCH better and more consistent during my commute. On the other hand, I miss a fair number of phone calls during rush hour. That's as much of a benefit as a problem though since I hate talking on the phone! Outside rush hour everything is flawless.

Sprint

Awful reception in all of Charlotte (at least inside buildings). I have lived near downtown and out Harris Blvd.the past 5 years and had numerous dropped calls. I have to go outside to talk on the phone most of the time as I get little or no signal inside. I work off Yorkmont near Tyvola Rd.and the same thing happens there. Sprint has a really lousy signal when you consider the fact that I have always lived or worked off a major road.

Sprint

Dropped calls all day long. We are constantly asking callers to repeat themselves the signal is horrible. We are no longer under contract thus we are shopping around for better service. We have been with Sprint a very long time but cannot continue with such bad reception service.

AT&T

hey AT&T people now it worse then before stop service in this area people are going loco

AT&T

0-1 bars throughout the house. I get better reception from my Verizon phone

Sprint

i get 2 bars outside. when i'm inside of the building next to the window..I get 0 bar. It drains the battery alot cuz it doesn't get much signal. my friend had a at&t(horrible customer service though) phone... get 2-3 bars. same thing for other locations..when i'm outside..i get 2 bars..inside..0 to 1 bar. i will call Sprint customer service and see what happens...

Sprint

dropped calls inside and around my house every time ! I also have problems keeping my battery charged because it gets drained from constantly searching for signal

T-Mobile

Reception is generally very good outdoors and in smaller buildings in Charlotte. I usually get about 4 bars everywhere in the city. I have also noticed a significant increase of service inside buildings on campus over the past 2 months. 3G speeds run between 2 and 4 Mbps.

Sprint

In the Highland Creek area you can have your phone in one spot and see your bars constantly move from zero bars to 3 bars. Bad coverage here.

AT&T

Love my new Sansung Sunburst, but will be returning it tonight. Looks great, takes a good picture, but no reception in my office and drops calls on campus and on the road back to Concord each day. My KRZR works great, so I am digging it out of the drawer and will continue to use it until I can find a GOOD replacement.

AT&T

Reception great, but no 3g. Have to go to Gastonia or Gaffney to get that. :(

Sprint

I live near David Cox Rd and had terrible coverage with Sprint in the previous 3 years that I have been with them but recently upgraded to the BB curve expecting better reception but not the case. So, I decided to call and complain to customer service about the terrible coverage I have been experiencing and threaten to cancel all five of my lines regardless of what the ETF were. As a resolution, Sprint sent me a Samsung Airave (at no charge only activation fee required) personal tower which covers up to 5000 sq feet in the home. Now I currently receive 5 full bars and fastest possible data connection for 1XEVDO. Still don't have the best coverage leaving the house but.5 mile down the road I get decent coverage. Hope this helps.

AT&T

I have lived in CrossPointe townhomes for 2 1 / 2 years. Cell reception is almost non-existent. I have tried AT&T and T-Mobile and get no bars. Have a Verizon service, but get very poor reception. I don't understand why something can't be done to improve the reception in the area. Does anyone know? As soon as I turn out of Highland Creek, the reception goes to full bars. Is something blocking the cell reception?

T-Mobile

Reception is good. Have ahd T-Mobile / Sun Com for over a year and have had no problems. No 3G is kind of awaful for data services, but that should be expected. EDGE is slow slow slow. But for the $ the PHONE, plan and imited data capabilities cant be beat.

Verizon

In the house I have 1 bar, and that's only if I stand near a back window. Outside, maybe 2. If I drive to Concord Mills Mall, I get the max. bars. Highland Creek must not have a cell tower. C'mon Verizon, we need better service here!

Verizon

I have perfect service but Vzw cost so much $$$ I think I need to switch... ugh! T-mobiles lookin kinda good right now

AT&T

Work in a building near the window and cannot get a signal. This is poor coverage and is more than a penetration issue.

T-Mobile

I have full coverage all over Charlotte. Never lose a signal. I had verizion previously and at best 1 would get 2 bars. T-Mobile is 1000 times better, and cheaper. Only disadvantage is no 3g right now but should be here before spring.

AT&T

Service sucks period in this area. Walk outside in the freezing cold to be able to talk with 2 bars if I am lucky.

AT&T

Horrible coverage inside the house even with a directional antenna in the attic and repeater in my home office. Have asked AT and T numerous times over the past 7 years to add more towers in Highland Creek with no success. You would think that with 4,500 homes in Highland Creek that they would have better service. Next door neighbor works for Sprint and he gets much better service.

AT&T

Absolutely the worst service I have ever had in over 10 years!

AT&T

Can't use phone in house. Have been told home in a dead spot / zone. May be able to get call through with 1-2 bars, but more than likely call will be dropped. Very disgusting having to pay for service which you can't get unless you drive out of this area. Definitely will switch once contract expires.

Verizon

sometimes have to go outside of my home to receive service. Verizon knows about problem and told me they would release me from my contract because they have no intention of fixing problem.

Verizon

Couldn't be happier - Verizon service and reception is great (and I swear, I do not work there!) Never lost a call in Charlotte / and love their online features where I can examine my monthly cell phone bill a bunch of different ways (sort by longest call / most expensive call / etc). It will even suggest another plan if it could save me money based on my usage patterns... Excellent all around.

AT&T

I have deadspots in my home. My drive to work consists of multiple dropped calls. I'd like to loose the landline but not till I locate a wireless thats more reliable.

Verizon

We normally get zero to three bars of reception. There are times when we cannot get reception and must go outside to complete a call. As I write this now I am getting two bars. I would like to see an additional tower placed in the HIghland Creek community.

AT&T

I just moved to CrossPointe. I get no reception in my house and an occasional bar when I go outside and rotate like an antenna. Sounds like Highland Creek is a problem. Does anyone get reception?

Verizon

service out here is cool all thought it is kinda hard to send pics sometimes but over all Verizon wireless is good

AT&T

The Worst reception for Cingular in this area. I never had the idea of what bad reception means back in atlanta. This place sucks.
