Does the terrible reception, text messages not sending, calls dropping or not being able to make a call in general have anything to do with upgrading to "unlimited data"? We didn't have the problem until we upgraded.
PEGKEL84, this far from the service experience we want to see you go through. We are here to help out. Making a change to this plan should not yield these types of results. Let's help take a closer look at this. What zip code are you located in? Does this occur only at home, or at all the locations you frequent? Are only calls and texts affected, or is your data connection also having issues?

We live in 56073, but it happens everywhere. We can be in New Ulm or in Mankato or out in the country and calls and text messages do not go through. Text messages will come through hours later. Data connection is poor everywhere we are. It always says we are offline or have no connection. We never have more than 2 or 3 bars of service no matter where we are. This didn't happen until we switched to unlimited data.
Thanks you
These details are very helpful, PEGKEL84. There aren't any trending alarms in that area, so let's help review things even further as this should not be your experience. (Especially if you have two to three bars.) What is the make and model of the phone you are using? When you experience these issues, do you notice any patters with the signal type and bars? (4G LTE or 1x/3G) Do you know of others that are also experiencing the same?
Its an Droid Z Play. Just purchased last November. I do not notice a pattern with the signal or bars. It happens any time throughout the day. Morning, afternoon, even evening. My husband sent me a picture message last night in the car (together) at 7:12 p.m. and it did not come through on my phone until 10:21 p.m. Myself, my husband, both of my in-laws are having the same problem and that's who I know of. Everyone works in different spots or towns and it happens all day and night for everyone. Its not just in one spot.
Thanks
Same problem with me here too.
I have the same issue. Getting ready to change to T mobile
