Oakland, CA 94602 |
Although I hate the higher pricing of Verizon, I have to admit the reception for me has been pretty close to perfect at our home about midway in on Benevides. Still, I pay way too much. My neighbor has T-Mobile and told me she gets no reception in her house--has to go outside or find a sweet spot upstairs. I borrowed her phone to test T-Mobile in our home next door and I got service all throughout our main floor. None downstairs where my desk is though. Thinking about moving to T-Mobile for the much cheaper rates including texting... as long as I can get calls somewhere in the house!

Terrible reception. I have to leave my house and walk to a more open area to have conversations on the phone. Even then areas of reception are patchy at best. Even though I love the iPhone, I will replace it with another phone just so I can use a more reliable provider once my ATT contract is up. I would expect this kind of coverage in a developing country or rural area--not the bay area!

It's always a surprise when we get a cell call. Most of the time it just doesn't work. If we walk around the house, and often outside, we can pick up reception for a while, before it gets dropped. Would drop the landline if we could; can't.

Cell phone is very spotty in the house. Usually I can only get reception near the windows or on the second floor, and even then it is still poor as people complain that I am garbled.

Well I was looking up ways to check for coverage because I'm looking to cancel my AT&T phone service. I'm very sad to have to do so; I have an iPhone and love it! But I can't use it at home as my calls drop daily.

Ironic that coverage always drops for me at this intersection... there is a Sprint Store across the street. But never fails, reception here sucks.

Terrible reception. No real 3G at all and a couple of bars of Edge! More Cell Towers! Is it a Berkeley thing that they don't want ugly towers? Could the City / Residents be stopping it? ATT and Apple - Please do something! Or I will HAVE to SWITCH!

Miller Ave. | Near Grizzley and Marin,
Berkeley, CA 94708 |
Wild fluctuations. Sometimes it is fine for half a day. Sometimes it will drop call after call after call. Sometimes there is no service whatsoever for a minute, and then it will be back again. AT&T says it is because towers are line of sight and the hills are a problem... except last I checked the hills don't move around like puppies in June.

I've never really had a problem with reception, ever, only when I'm (sort of) underground in the women's locker room in the gym or in the lower level computer lab in the dorms, but that is to be expected with any carrier. Verizon is pretty good. I don't know why I'm looking for another carrier, maybe it's the price, but Verizon is worth it.
