Default T-Mobile Service in CA?

I was reading through the threads and saw one that asked about service in NYC. Maybe it will be a good idea to weigh in as to how your service is in what part of Cali. Thanks to all who respond.

I am happy with my service in Nor cal..I travel a lot out of state. and really have not worried about lack of coverage..I will admit that verizon and att may offer better coverage, but my tmo plan is cheaper, and their customer service is awesome!

Are you asking about CS or reception?

San Jose has decent coverage but with quite a few dead spots. Friends on AT&T and Verizon usually get service where I don't

I guess I should have been more specific, huh. Reception. My wife and I are considering TMobile as an option but don't want to switch and have no bars. Any feedback is appreciated!

I constantly travel between LA County and Orange County and about 95% of the time, I have no problems with reception. They few dead spots I have noticed was in a basement of a hospital and hilly areas of some residential neighborhoods.

I'm in Santa Barbara and generally have no complaints, except for maybe the building we're in at work which sucks for
wireless internet too.
I travel to LA or inland a couple states (AZ, NM) and haven't had any issues.

Thanks, everyone. Has anyone traveled through the Fresno,Tulare and Visalia regions? That's probably where I'll be most of the time.

I live near the San Bernadino county but I'm frequently in LA county and it seems to be okay. I did have some trouble right down the street, but it seemed to clear right up.
