5 Out of 5 (5 stars) | Stanford, Palo Alto, CA 94304 |

Had ATT last 3 years because it was the only carrier that got reception in the hospital. Usually had bars but many dropped calls that I didn't really care about because I assumed it was to be expected. Switched to Sprint 2 weeks ago. Reception everywhere I have been, including several known deadspots for both ATT and Verizon. The data is slow but does not effect anything that I do, (web browsing, streaming radio, youtube). My GF who also switched now gets coverage on 280 which she never had before. Infinitely better than ATT

Marginal to no signal in the area. AT&T charging for Microcell to boost signal they should provide with service paid.

Honestly, my T-Mobile is working so well at my mother-in-law home. So please with it and have 3g full bars, download speed is as fast as wifi. But no good in San Mateo my home. Poor~

Not good! I am the T-Mobile customers for more than 4 years and the reception is not getting improve. I occasionally have no bar and the max is 2 bar for EDGE. Hardly to have 3g, if I do, the 3g will gone in minutes. Thinking to switch to AT&T for better network.

I live in the Shelter Creek Apartments. I have to sit down at the foot of the bed by the patio doors to get 1 bar. Voice reception is terrible and 50% of the calls are dropped after a couple of minutes. Had to get an internet phone to make calls from my apartment.

Never had a dropped call in my life with Verizon (5-year customer). I laugh at the people who complain about it on their AT&T phones.

Most often, there is no voice coverage in the house at all with slightly better reception out on the driveway. The neighbors can be seen standing on driveways to talk. Event then, the quality of the voice signal is so poor that we have difficulty hearing or understanding the speech. Also, many dropped calls and occassionally messages that come through as much as 24 hours later! Out on highway one it is better, but the call ALWAYS drops on Devil's Slide. We would switch carriers, but haven't found one that seems better.

I've been a loyal AT&T customer since Jesus was in short pants, but now I'm singing a different tune. I've got 1 or 2 bars in the "good" spots in my apartment. If I want to make a (somewhat clear) call I have to stand in my roommate's doorway (so much for privacy!). I'll be moving to SF in a few months and the service doesn't seem to be any better there. WTF? Now that I'm beyond my contract, I'm shopping around for a new carrier.

ATT works and has a tower with space on the property. Verizon, please buy a piece of it! My phone is useless 8 hours a day.

Terrible reception both indoors and outdoors. Worst yet is that sometimes the connection is one-way, I can hear the other person, but I can't be heard on the other end. On coming back home in Sunnyvale, everything works just fine, thus precluding the possibility of my phone being the culprit.
