T-Mobile coverage sucks in Redwood Shores. Please put more towers in! When I bought my phone, the T-Mobile shop said they were going to shortly and they have not 4 months later.

5 Out of 5 (5 stars) | Grand Ave., South San Francisco, CA 94080 |

Great reception. I think Nextel has the best quality as voice goes, maybe not the best reception in all locations, but I have tried many carriers and some are really bad such as T-Mobile. You get for what you pay for basically. Loved AT&T before merger with Cingular. It was the best!

T-Mobile

5 Out of 5 (5 stars) | Medical Center, Stanford, CA 94305 |

Very strong GSM reception around the Stanford Medical Center, mainly due to the hospital's contract with Cingular / AT&T. My old Sprint phone would die when I was 10 feet from the window, but my TMobile and Cingular phones have a strong signal into the stairwells, basement, and inside refrigerated rooms. Signal drops to nil once on campus or near the residence halls.

In the down town area on Main St.I can connect but the signal level leaves a lot to be desired.

Cingular is awful and sucks big time!. Can't wait for my contract to expire. Who cares about rollover minutes when you can't even use your phone. I work at second and folsom. When I am at the lounge / cafeteria there is not a single bar on the phone. The other carriers which my co workers have are having a "grand" conversation chatting away. I can't even get any connection. Do yourselves a favor and stay away from Cingular.. By the way I live in San Mateo and it doesn't get any better either... I can't even receive an incoming call in my own residence. Now that is pathetic! Stay away from Cingular!

Extremely unreliable coverage. Frequent call drops. When call doesn't drop, reception is so spotty that you can't hear anything anyway. In addition, my phone often switches to analog when I am at home which drains the battery.
