Virgin Mobile
At this location calls do not drop, they come in great. Data it pitiful. I average about 40kbps or lower most of the time here. The data will randomly jump to about 150kbps. Virgin mobile is on sprints network but Sprint devices if course get priority. My roommate has an epic touch 4g phone and a combo Sprint 3g / 4g usb modem. She gets the same data rates as I do throughout the home and at the bus stop. I pay $35 a month for service. She pays about $70 for each device. Her phone has no modifications, mine does. It runs cm7 via an iho distro. I understand that coverage isn't going to deliver maximum data speeds everywhere but we should at least receive 250 kbps minimum in decent conditions anywhere there is supported coverage. We easily get 2mbps (2000kbps for those lost at this point) or higher downtown and along many parts of Gratiot. Sprint, please upgrade the service in the area. People will start switching to virgin mobile and boost (also on sprints network) to get crappy service at a more affordable price.

Having very poor internet connection starting mid-morning through evening. In early morning hours it's OK. Signal strength looks good though. Perhaps they do not have enough capacity to handle intenet connections.

Terrible reception, no more than 2 bars anywhere I go, no 3g at work and my battery dies in less than 10hrs from searching for signal (lasts for days elsewhere). Sprint representatives said that they could not confirm my problem even after dropping a call with a manager, who did not call back. They will not acknowledge my issues or allow me to terminate my service without a fee. Don't even consider getting Sprint if you live in the detroit area.

Excellent signal strength. AT&T works great inside the building, while all other carriers seem to be weak. Now why can't I find a carrier that works for me and my kids - in NYC and at Wayne State campus?

Drop calls non stop, I used to sing the praises of Verizon but lately horrible service. Customer since 1999: I been treated like crap Verizon customer service is horrible, not world class service as it used to be. Since 3and 4 g is out supposed to be better, now worst than ever
