T-Mobile

I can't even sit in my living room and talk, I have to go sit on a chair near a window or go out in the back yard. I had better reception with my 3 year old Motorola phone in the house. Looks like the closet tower is at Coors and Rio Bravo area, 3 - 4 miles away.

I get two bars, and for most of the time the signal is Ok. But, on an average, I get 5-10% calls dropped. Very frustrating, if you've been on hold for 15 min, and jsut got to talk to a rep, and that's when the call gets dropped :( Decent reception and no dropped calls everywhere else in ABQ though. So, must be my area in Ventana Ranch that drops the calls :(

I recently moved to albuquerque and fond that my phone gets almot no reception. It actually shows full 5 bars for my signal reception but almost all calls are dropped during the first 2 seconds or while the line is still ringing. I'm switching to another carrier.

When I first bought a cell phone I chose Sprint. My initial interaction with Sprint was excellent. No dropped calls, no billing issues. The last two to three years with Sprint have been Hell. When I first started getting dropped calls in my living room I thought it must be the phone. So I changed phones but the calls continued to drop. My original Sprint phones had real antennas that you would pull up and out of the phones. The newer models all have their antennas built into the handset with no extension. These are the cell phones I have had this trouble with. Does anyone know if there is a difference in reception on the Westside using the two different phones? Sprint service does not have a clue.

Even after we updated the roaming software *228 we can only get two bars in our back yard.

Have lived at the same location and had Verizon for 6 years. Reception has been getting progressively worse over the years. Have to go outside my house to make a call without being disconnected constantly. My girlfriend has T-Mobile and reception is perfect.

I used Verizon for years with no problems then switched to Quest (Sprint) and now calls are dropped all the time and it enters "roaming" at random. I will switch back to Verizon.

In my home I have to find certain places, and then don't even always get service. I miss calls because they don't even ring on the phone-I only detect them when the beep comes for a message. The same thing happens to my babysitter who has just gotten a new phone with Alltel.
