AT&T
Half of my calls wind up being dropped or they can't hear me when I answer. Some calls go to voicemail and the phone never rings. ATT says there are several towers in the area and that I "SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET AT LEAST 3 BARS IN THIS AREA"... ... Signal strength is 2 bars about half of the time and 1 bar the rest of the time. When it's 1 bar it might as well be no bars. Always excuses, no action from ATT.

No 4G wimax and definitely no 4G LTE. 3G speeds are abysmal, but that's because Sprint has very poor 3G speeds in the first place. Calls and texts usually work fine, though calls will drop occasionally. AT&T suffers from some dropped calls in the area, but the coverage is much better, especially in terms of data coverage and speed. 3G is very usable and there is LTE coverage. I have both providers (don't ask). I can't say anything about Verizon in this area, but AT&T is the clear choice going off what I know.

Got Sprint because I couldn't afford AT&T deposit. Before signing the contract I specifically asked about coverage in my home AND where I work, Gonzales county. They assured me home coverage would be good as I'm just a couple of miles from the tower in Alamo Heights. As for Gonzales county, they said I'm covered there too. Facts: Absolutely no data service in my home. I'm in a 3G area just two blocks from the 4G coverage that surrounds me but still, I have no data coverage. Phone reception, poor to none. Impossible to hold even a two minute conversation. Calls will not come in and outgoing calls drop within a minute. Any important call has to be made away from home. We do not answer important calls either. Sprint sent us a booster free after one rep tried to charge us $250 for it. We hung up and called right back. The next rep said no problem, we'll send that right out free of charge. It doesn't work. In Gonzales, I have minimal reception, park by the gate entrance-one bar, park by the big tree-one bar, turn right here and call drops. Or, no service at all. I use my phone for dispatch at work. At least, I'm supposed to. Instead I have to find another driver with a phone that can call in my status and receive my dispatch, typically, they all use att. Currently, my service is disconnected as I refused to pay 200 a month for no service. Bill is up to 723 now.

There is no 4g lte coverage, and the 3g is pathetically slow. Thinking of returning the 4g lte and going back to my original phone which is 4g, straight up. What a disappointment and really, outright fraud by Sprint.

Sprint says I'm in the heart of their coverage zone. But for my phone and my wifes low end Samsung phone, we get no reception at our house. I can walk down the stree about 200 yards and I get full 3 and 4g service. Even sadder is that I have Clear as my Internet provider, and it works on a 4g signal (Clear is owned by Sprint) and I get a full 4g signal in the center of my house with no outside walls. My friends with Crickett and Verizon have no issues at my house or any part of my house.

Zip code would be misleading as you would think we are at Canyon Lake instead of two miles from Garden Ridge. We are shadowed by a large hill which shields us from the Lucent tower near IH 35. 1 to three bars in the house. Can get better outside. There is hope for a better signal from either of two towers not in this database as of this review: 1) in Garden Ridge on FM 3009 near Schoenthal Rd.and on FM 1863 a quarter mile towards New Braunfels from the Schoenthal Rd.intersection. The question would be whose signals come from these two as neither has signage.

Reception has become almost non-existent the last few days and AT&T says they can't figure it out although there is a degraded tower at NW Military and Wurzbach Pkwy. which they say has nothing to do with dropped calls, people can't hear me, and text messages will not go out

We have been having issues with reception for the past 3 months or so all around the NE side of SA. We have 4 phones under Sprint and talked to several reps with Sprint about these issues and they have given us numerous answers. Some said that there was no towers down, some saying that there was a tower down, some saying that they are being upgraded to the LTE... We are so fed up with the dropped calls / echoes / static.The last rep said it might go on til Sept... Altogether we are spending $300 / month for crap service and they will not let us out of our contract! We made a complaint to the BBB. We have been with Sprint for 10 plus years and we are never signing another contract with them.

the reception changes drastically from one minute to the next. if I begin a call with a five bar signal, within ten minutes there is a 50 / 50 chance the call will be dropped. nobody at cricket can explain this. other cricket customers have the same trouble when using their phone at my house. this is my third phone in three months, so it isn't a problem with the phone.
