Pensacola & Cell service/data

AyeeYoAP · 10-31-2013, 11:26 AM

Sprint sucks at Corry, but I lived on the IT side so my service didn't suck as bad as the people who lived in the BEQs service did. though. Other than that, its bearable. It's not the worst. But you do kinda have to go outside to talk on the phone sometimes. And the mobile data sucks... REALLY bad.

Outside of the barracks my service worked just fine.

If the barracks have tin roofs that has alot to do with the sucky signal. I can't remember if they do though.

But, I would HIGHLY recommend Verizon...

Cell service just doesn't seem to work on base anywhere. All the old brick buildings block the signal pretty effectively.

I'm stationed at Lackland now and my service is horrible, but ONLY at medical and my barracks in particular -_-

aw man I was going to get rid of Verizon and the high ass packages they offer. But I am hearing too many negative things about Sprint. Well I may just keep it for two more years.

Yea I can confirm the TERRIBLE service that Sprint provides. I am in Florida and have been my whole life and Sprint has always been horrible here. Also the company i currently work for uses sprint as our cell provoders and we can hardly do our jobs bc the signal is so intermittent. Verizon is deff the best here. ATT is not too bad either

Well, thanks for reinforcing my decision haha. I guess I will just have to wait until I get there to see the results. I have to say that it's already been a huge improvement at home!

Yeah you made a good decision. Believe me you won't regret it

Sorry I love Sprint and never had any problems. Especially floating outside in Hawaii I picked up service, we were close to one island, the one that they use in jurassic park and I picked up service there. Also in San Diego I always pick up service 5 miles off the coast.
