T-Mobile

Reception is great wherever I go. I've never dropped a call, and only very rarely will I notice any static or distortion. I want to stop paying for my landline I never use, but the wife won't let me.

I started with T-Mobile.. didn't work in my house. So I switched to Cingular last week. Do not get Cingular. They said they were "putting up more towers" and to wait. But I got out of my contract (I was still within my 30 days). I switched to Verizon and it works great! The sound wasn't as crystal clear as GSM, but full bars indoor and out. That's more important to me than cd-quality sound. Even at work (Kyrene and Ray). No more dropped calls. If you are looking for a carrier, I recommend Verizon. And I've only been a customer for a few days. Also, the people who helped me sign up were SO nice. It was the best experience I've had (and I've had all the major carriers) - Best service (in my own opinion) and best coverage. STAY AWAY FROM CINGULAR. And, if you just signed up with them, and you live in the east valley - my recommendation is to switch to Verizon or sprint. And I have friends who are trapped in their contracts who would agree.

Excellent reception anywhere around the house or outside of house.

Verizon is real spotty out in the Boulder Mountain area in NE Mesa,but so is everyone else except T-Mobile oddly enough. Just saw cell antennas being fitted on a flag pole about a mile away so hopefully service improves soon.

Cingular has absolutely NO reception in my home or within a mile. Drops almost half the calls and their support is absolutely horrific. If you need to call, have some time to burn because you'll be on the phone for hours!

Several of my friends an I have Verizon phones and live in the same general area. Our calls SE of McClintock and Southern are constantly being dropped at our houses. Hardly can keep a call inside nearby Target. We all called Verizon and they claimed to have went to the area and found no problems. Obviously they did not look hard because we drop calls almost every single time in that area, especially within our homes.

I get awesome reception around here and I have Cingular prepaid. Which from what I know prepaid usually gets worse service then normal contracts. The only time I ever lose any bars is when I either leave the Chandler area or am in a crowded area with alot of electronics that interfere with the signal. Other then that the service is great around never have had a problem.

Best with Verizon. Have Sprint and it drops calls all the time. Very noisy. When I first got Verizon I kept asking people "can you hear me now?" because it is so crystal clear that I get no backround noise. Their service is even better than my home land line.

East Valley signal strength is no existent. I see "Emergency Only" or "No Service" far more than I see even one bar. I-60 corridor from Power to 87 has a lot of spots where signal is non existent. Guadalupe is worse for same grid. If I get a signal, call drops within a few minutes every time or phone locks up where I am sure I am being billed but the connection is dead and have to power the phone off. Co-worker has Cingular, different phone, same terrible reception. My phone is nothing more than an expensive paperweight.

Awful reception! I can't believe that the positive comments about Verizon in Mesa are genuine!
