About 70% of the time, cannot make outgoing calls or receive incoming calls; same on wife's clamshell phone. Text messaging works, phone shows full bars. Same problem around Rice University. Problem has been going on for 2 months. Contacted ATT and they "worked" on the problem, sending an email declaring it was resolved. Whatever. I think they are out of bandwidth in area and won't admit to it - increase bandwidth.

I live one block from this intersection in the Royal Oaks subdivision and get very poor reception in my home. Reception in the street is slightly better but still poor. I actually have no reception about 75% of the time and one or two bars of reception 25% of the time.

Reception fine until new tower placed just South of Dairy Ashford and Westpark intersection on East side of Dairy Ashford. Reception sporatic enough to keep phone from roaming to better tower but constantly drops calls. Tried 2 different Verizon phones, same thing. Outside of this area seems to work OK.

Reception was fine until a new tower was put up just South of the Dairy Ashford and Westpark intersection on the East side of Dairy Ashford. Now the reception is sporatic enough so that it won't allow the phones to roam an alternate tower but drops any call that connects constantly. Have tried two different Verizon phones with no improvement. Outside of this area the phone seems to work fine.

In our 3-story town house, reception is good on the 3rd floor but only 1 bar on the 1st and 2nd floors (meaning calls get missed, and calls are impossible to make).

Very very poor service. I always have to stand in the middle of the street talk. Even thought the bars show atleast 3, you can never have a peaceful conversation. In a 2 minute conversation, I end up saying hello for more than 90 secs.

I am on my FOURTH Sprint cell phone and not one has been able to get reception at my house. I also don't get reception when driving past Bellaire High School, Meyerland Plaza, or at my office (when I get calls at my home or office I have to run outside). I have been with them since 2000 when I was younger and my parents payed for the service. Because they were paying for it I accepted it. Now that I am on my own I have changed to Verizon and the reception is great. The bills are much higher, but at the end of the day being able to actually use my cell phone is the most important quality for me.
