Sprint was much better a year ago. Now lucky to get 1 bar. Try to send texts is very iffy. Works much better in SF.not so good in San Bruno. My neighbors say the same thing about their service. Maybe San Bruno just has bad reception.

Home | Oakwood Ave.And El Camino,
Redwood City, CA 94061 |
My calls are constantly dropped and people on the other end are always complaining about not being able to hear me. The reception is barely existent in one corner of the house, most of the time there is no service at all. This is affecting my ability to take work calls.

Reception is usually fine outside, but variable indoors when I or the other caller will often experience breaking up voice. Inside some concrete garages and buildings with thick walls I get little reception.

Stanford University,
Palo Alto, CA 94301 |
Verizon has very spotty coverage in and around the Stanford campus. In fact, my phone jumps to 3G data speeds occasionally because of poor coverage, while other times I cannot get a data connection at all. Areas along Sand Hill Rd.and Junipero Serra are one big coverage hole. Dropped calls are not uncommon. Coverage in other areas around the outside of campus seems fairly good at times, while other times it's terrible. Overall, I've been pretty dissatisfied with Verizon's coverage in and around Stanford, and I'm giving serious consideration to switching to a different carrier.

Webster St. | Channing Ave.,
Palo Alto, CA 94301 |
I get one to two bars with AT&T, and that is with two different handsets. Calls are sometimes dropped unless I stand near a window, and sometimes even then. A salesperson at the local AT&T said it might be because I am on the coverage boundaries for two different cell towers. Occasionally, I get no coverage at all, although that problem seems to have gone away as of late. The above is inside my apartment. Standing on the sidewalk at the corner of Webster and Channing, I usually get 3-4 bars. Using the same handsets as above, I get 4-5 bars with T-Mobile. No dropped calls ever and great data connection. Using Ookla Speedtest, the measured data transfer rate for T-Mobile was ten times greater than for AT&T. Latency was ten times greater for T-Mobile than for AT&T, however. The overall effect on the handsets was that the apparent data speed for T-Mobile was noticeably faster than for AT&T.

Sneath Lane | Siskiyou,
San Bruno, CA 94066 |
Prepaid T-Mobile phone purchased tonight, trying to find coverage at my home on Sneath Lane. The backside of Sneath has no coverage for T-Mobile. No bars. Have to walk down Sneath 1 / 3 of a mile to get coverage. We are facing Sweeny Ridge and a lot of carriers don't work well up here. Planning to return the prepaid phone (if possible).

Near YMCA on Ross,
Palo Alto, CA 94303 |
Unbelievably bad reception at my home for years 0-2 bars depending on conditions. I don't receive half the calls made to me. Calls drop all the time. Verizon solution is an inhome receiver via my wifi but if I come or go calls are dropped each time. Calls started dropping on Middlefield near Charleston and on San Antonio and Middlefield for the last couple weeks but seemed not to drop last week. The issue is ATT and the rest have equally bad reception so there is no alternative.

Park and E Charleston ,
Palo Alto, CA 94306 |
Never had a call without it being dropped. I called customer service to complain and they told me "You signed a contract stating that there is no guarantee of coverage indoors." Not only are my calls being dropped indoors but they also get dropped outside of my house, and anywhere from 1 mile radius of my house. I filed many tickets with them in 2013 / 2014 only to call again in 2015 and them telling me that there is no record of me ever complaining to them. By far, Verizon has the poorest reception I've seen compared to other carriers and the worst customer service. I completely lost trust in them.

Middlefield Rd.And San Antonio, | Middlefield and 101 Toward 85 South,
Palo Alto, CA 94306 |
Over the past month, the reception for Verizon in Palo Alto South going towards 101 to 85 South is terrible. The calls drop in 3 places! Not sure what is causing this but it is an issue when on work calls and they drop 3 times within 5 minutes.
