Sprint
We have very few dropped calls. However, I don't get voicemail messages for at least 3 hours to 45 days. Since I'm dependent on my phone for my job this can be very very bad. I've not gotten important messages, then suddenly I'll have over 50 voicemails. Texting is a PITA. It only works about 30% of the time. I don't get responses and look to find that the texts have never been sent... locked in my outbox. I have the same problem getting texts taht I do with voicemails. Today I got 90 texts, some from December 2010! That is just wrong. Sprint says "oh well". They are not helpful at all with customer service. I can't wait to get out of this contract. Have had them since 1995 and was always happy till the last 18 months. My download speeds are about 3KB per hour. Most websites never load. I just have given up.

I believe that the area between Northwest Vista College and UTSA as well anything on the "other" side of Leon Valley heading for Loop 1604 is a dead area for anything. Radio reception is HORRIBLE out here and you probably need cable to watch any TV out here. Sorry this is off subject. But after reading these posts I believe you guys about cell phone reception. I have a friend of mine who says he knows people a few seconds from where I'm at and they have issues with both radio and cell phone reception

My phone works great everywhere I go except in my building at work. The battery drains by mid-afternoon because the device is searching for signal all day. FRUSTRATING! esp since this problem was noted for this area FOUR years ago - see above! That wasn't my comment, but it's still true! Need more signal in this area.

Living out in the hill country I still get great service, only problem is that I have to go upstairs or by a window to use my 3G. Never have dropped calls.

Started service with AT&T in a different state. Service was okay. Moved to Texas and I now have at least 5-6 dropped calls a day. I am counting down the months before I can get out of the 2-year contract. Even considered paying the money but getting out earlier. Disappointing.

Well my poor rating has nothing to do with the reception but it has to do with the internet access. I've had T-Mobile for about 6 years now and I really havent had any issues when it comes to calls but about a week ago around the sea world area my interent wont work... I thought it was the settings on my phone, I even had the simm card changed but that wasnt the issue... I leave this area and I get my internet access back... I know they just put new reception towers in the area and it could be that they're blocking my signal but ugh its just so frustrating! I want to be able to use my interent everywhere I go... reason why I pay 34.99 every month! please TMOBILE fix this issue!

overall decent service however I do always get a dropped call at the I-35 and I-10 interchange. in all fairness I did notice a church down there and they may be using a scrambler. Other than that decent all around town and down the main highway corridors.

I have had two Sprint PCS wireless Broadband cards for more than two years and the service is so bad that a normal download for me is at about 7 to 10 K, yes single digit K. The only reason I have these cards is that they are paid for by my company but I can't put up with the poor service anymore. I have contacted Sprint many times over the last two years and they didn't care to do anything for me. It will be better if I spend my own money on something that might work than put up with this lousey service any longer. It's a shame I live in the country and can't get wireline service!
