MetroPCS

Tried AT&T, Verizon, Sprint. They all behave the same way in this area. Metro PCS has an Application called JOYN. It is pretty much VOIP WIFI calling to the phone thru the internet home modem. Can't go wrong with it.

AT&T

Very poor reception. Calls drop and voice is choppy.

MetroPCS

This whole area seems like all companies are not operating properly. ATT swings back and forth 1 to 2 bars. Metro PCS, same. Verizon, the same. There is a tower nearby, but somebody took it down.Calls can be dropped at any given minute. It's as bad inside the house. 4 G reception is just as bad.

Sprint

I recently got rid of my lan line and use my Evo's hot spot. Bad decision! I thought it was my lap top or Evo. It's Sprint reception! 1 more yr on contract and I'm gone to someone else.

Sprint

I recently got three 9330's for the family from Sprint. Reception is terrible inside my house and not that good outside. Sprint needs to put up more towers in the near south side of Fort Worth. That would be the Hospital district and the Fairmount and Ryan Place neighborhoods.

Sprint

I can get all bars in 4G, in the parking lot of Albertsons; at the corner of loop 820 and White Settement Rd. When I drive west -to my house- reception drops to 2 bars in 3G, after about 1 quarter mile.

AT&T

I have had AT&T for years now and I rarely have problems (exception: during hurricanes). I frequently notice I have bars when my peers and coworkers do not (they have mostly Sprint and some T-mobile). I'd suggest AT&T, highly recommended. *Note: they also have great family plans, but the individual plans tend to be a bit more expensive.

Sprint

We have no reception in our house - outside on the porch is somewhat better. This is a major problem because we no longer have a land line. I'm counting down days until we can get out of this contract.

Verizon

Terrible voice and data coverage in Monticello; Consistently drop calls or person on other end can't hear me

Verizon

I get no bars here but calls always come in and go out. The main problem is 3g speed, its terrible here!.54 mbp up almost always.

Sprint

Horrible reception in my house, in Wedgwood, south of I-20. While talking to a friend the other night, right by the window, I dropped our call 5 times. 5 times! There's barely a spot in my house that works well. Or at my parents' house. Or anywhere I frequent. The internet is sluggish at best, even outside. I've found few places where it works at a relatively decent pace anywhere on the SW side of Fort Worth. It's maddening to pay to have internet on my cool phone and then it barely works, and drops calls ALL THE TIME. Getting ready to pay the early cancel fee and switch to AT&T, which I had before and should've stayed with.

Verizon

I just moved here from Colorado and wish I didnt have Verizon. The worst service and dont even get me started with the crappy HTC. Sprint here I come!

T-Mobile

The South Hills neighborhood north of I-20 and Westcreek is a dead zone. Cant get any reception indoors and 1 bar outside (if i'm lucky). This is the case with both T-Mobile and Sprint. AT&T has good reception in this area.

MetroPCS

The tower is on White Settlement at Carrol. Going West, there is a perfect signal to Bailey at White Settlement. The next very short block drops 2 of 5 bars. Going NW on N Bailey, one block drops another bar or more. Anytime your in a structure, you have just about lost all service. Sometimes, EARLY(3am) in the morning hours you may have a good service? (3bars?). It is not usable. Blackberry is great with full signal! With a marginal single it just is junk.

AT&T

The reception on my phone and my wife's LG Vue sucks bad. It's bad all the way up 7th / Camp Bowie to the Museum. Reception is even worse up by the museum. Don't get AT&T if you plan to live anywhere between downtown and Montgomery Street.

T-Mobile

I have had no issues with T-moble in the NRH area. When I lived in Arlington I occasionally had issues when inside my house. The only place in the metroplex that I get dropped calls religiously is on valley view drive along side the south DFW airport border. There are power lines running parellel with the road and every single time I travel that way and am on the phone I drop. Other than that, have had perfect cell reception in the DFW area, especially in NRH area.

Sprint

I live less than a mile from a Sprint Store south of I20 in City View. I get nothing. You'd think I lived in BFE!

Sprint

I live less than a mile from a Sprint store south of I20 in City View FTW. I get nothing!

Sprint

I have had Sprint for 12 years in this are I only have problems around the NASJRB over than that it is pretty clear all the time

Sprint

I have to talk on my cell phone outside to hope to have a connection longer than 5 minutes as in the house will certainly produce a dropped call. I had T-Mobile working wonderfully but family member got me a discount on the phone and service. Sprint connection works well through out the metroplex... just not very well in my home.

Sprint

Inside my house, I have no reception. Have to stand outside to make a call. Calls dropped frequently. Reported to Sprint. "Engineering" said there was no problem with network equipment. Must be the phone. When I told them my husband and I have identical phones with identical issue, Engineer said, "it may have been a bad batch of phones." Now, I see that this is a long-standing problem. No towers.

Sprint

We moved to the area after having great service with Sprint for years in other cities. Now we can't get any reception inside our house and only 1 bar at times outside, but then it drops your calls immediately. I have heard from neighbors that spring knows about this problem for years and has been promising a new tower, yet nothing has happened yet. Just empty promises and we are stuck in contracts that we can't use. I'm switching ASAP. Spring customer service has been worthless despite being a customer for over 7 years... .

T-Mobile

Came from Metro Pcs, they suck! Now I have T-Mobile they are awesome! I never drop calls... ..

AT&T

Left T-Mobile for them after 9 years do to a lack of new / intresting phones. I wish I never would have done this! T-MOBILE, I WILL BE BACK IN 2 years or less! They say the grass always looks greener on the other side of the fence, will its only greener in patches let me tell you.

MetroPCS

i just moved here to west fort worth area and I bought metrpcs.BIG BIG BIG VERY BIG mistake..as I speak I am emailing several emails to fellow co workers enroute to moving to fort worth texas from austin as I did.I plan to make it my lifes work to Get out and spread the word about the horrible service of metropcs.I would not reccomend this service to anyone and there return or refund policy is non exisintant! Choose another another carrier.I had to borrow my friends phone(Boost Unlimited ) to make a call!

T-Mobile

Very decent service from T-Mo at Southwestern Seminary. Service is better than Verizon in the same location.

Verizon

I switced from Cingular to Verizon on the reccommendation of Consumer Reports that Verizon had the best reception America wide for when I travel to the East and West coasts. That has not been my experience. My reception immediately dropped and I almost coulnd't get reception at all in my Hemphill studio with a cell phone tower right across the street! It's poor in my house also. When I drive around small town areas of Texas in the Panhandle, West Texas and South of FW, the reception is mostly non existant. When driving with friends or realtives in W. TX, they get recption on Sprint even in remote areas. I'd love to know what cell phone works best in Texas and on the coasts.

Verizon

Verizon gives me 0 bars inside my house, 1-2 in the far corner of the backyard if the weather is favorable. After having such bad to non-existant service for the 2 year contract, I have found that I don't really need a cell phone after all. So I'm cancelling service when the contract ends in December. Free again!

Sprint

My phone alternates between 0, 1, and 2 bars. People will frequently try to call me but the phone won't ring. Maybe 20 minutes later I'll get notification of a voicemail. Even outside the house, it may take several minutes to get a signal. My girlfriend's phone doesn't fare mutch better. If I enable roaming on the phone, frequently when I try to make a call it will say something like "Welcome to America's Roaming Network! Please have your credit card ready to make a call"

Sprint

I get great service pretty much everywhere I go with Sprint, especially the west side of Fort Worth. I have a high speed data card that works great at home near Camp Bowie. I travel frequently and I'm all around the Fort Worth area. As with any carrier, you will get a dead spot or two, but I'm usually out if it within a quarter mile on the highway. Great service. Highly recommended.
