Phone only partially works in certain areas of the house. I was thinking of trying all of the carriers until I found this site and realized that they all have bad reception. What's up?

I have MetroPCS and it works outside in certain spots. on Linda Mar BLVD. it seems fine but once you get to the end you see the end of your 2 bars of hope. I really wish they would get service back there. but you get for what you pay I guess. the rest of pacifica seems ok along hwy 1.

Reception in this area is hit and miss. Better than two years ago, but still unacceptable. Is there a better carrier?

No problem throughout most of the coastside - except inside our house. No dropped calls yet. I've disabled roaming for now, so I don't get hit with huge roaming charges. Before disabling, it would often switch to roaming while inside the house.

Once I get to Everglades is when I start seeing bars. They claim that if I stand outside my house I should be able to make and receive calls, right! Only a one year contract so I switched over to Cingular. They're the only ones I've seen receive service back here.

Very poor reception inside my unit, unusable. OK outside on the grounds.

It's really hard to say what "average" is around here because it seems that all the carriers suck. I get reception in my house, but only reliable on the second floor. I lose the signal on 280 at Woodside Road, but only in the third lane (really). 280 by alpine road is also problematic. Sometimes I lose the signal on Farm Hill but not always.

Very poor reception on the SLAC campus 1 to 0 the battery can't handle the shock. Not very happy with Verizon

Can not make a call from in my apartment (3rd floor) or outside from the landing or balcony. Reception is bad in most places in San Mateo and Burlingame where I have tried to make or receive a call. Most calls fail, are dropped, or are of such poor quality as to be unintelligable so that I have to hang up. Plan to return the phone but MetroPCS rule on returning the phone is less than 30 days use and less that 1 HOUR of use... I have used my phone for 1 hr. 8 min. 47 sec. (this total usage was for 33 calls... ) This was my first cell phone. Have had the phone 8 days. This "service" has reaffirmed everything I thought was true about cell phones. I need to find a plan that will work on the Peninsula especially along the 101 corridor.

I used to get an OK coverage from Cingular until they merged with AT&T. What's up with that?
