bellerus Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Anyone have good suggestions for a cell phone carrier in Shadow Creek Ranch? We've recently moved into Shadow Creek Ranch and have discovered that our AT&T cell phones are completely unreliable. Our service gets much better once we leave the neighborhood.We're considering switching to verizon or t-mobile, though we're thinking that one possibility is that we're in a dead zone. Anyone else experience horrible cell phone service along biscayne bay neighborhoods?Thanks for any info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rem78 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 What network does your phone use? My cell phone is through AT&T and I haven't experienced any problems with coverage. I believe I'm using a 3G sim card, but looks like it switches to the Edge network occasionally. I'm not a techie so sorry I can't offer more info on how the networks work.

Anyone else experience horrible cell phone service along biscayne bay neighborhoods?Thanks for any info!I'm in Creekside Meadow, just off Biscayne Bay. I have an AT&T phone and haven't had any problems with coverage. This is a "3G" phone which uses their newer network technology. If you have older phones, that might have something to do with it, or it might be a "dead zone".There's a Verizon store in the shopping center with HEB. You might check with them to see if there's some way they can lend you a phone to check coverage in your area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'll try borrowing a newer model from the AT&T and verizon stores so I can see if it's my phone.Does anyone use T-Mobile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
