This whole area is great with all three of my Altell phones, razor, LG and Samsung. Alltell never drops a call and I usuall have 4 or 5 bars.

Been with Alltel / CellularOne for 10 years in phoenix / scotts. CellularOne was better. Phone works great everywhere except my house which is odd because it has always worked ok even with my old Motorola T720. Now no matter what phone, it drops calls all the time. Signal just fades. I can hear them but they can't hear me and then it drops altogether. Frustrating since this never used to happen until a few months ago. Now I may be forced to go to Crapular or Tease-mobile GSM network to experiment, but am weary since no one ever has anything good to say about them or their customer dis-service. No idea what to do now. I travel a lot and Phoenix has some of the worst cell phone reception and service in the country.

get continual dropouts after 10 min.

I only receive a maximum of two to three bars at any given time, but signal is poor at best as I always drop calls. Also calls are intermitent and spotty at best. Thinking of switching to Verizon.

Very poor coverage -- switching between 4G, edge, and no signal -- and constant dropped and missed calls. AT&T customer support sometimes say they are "upgrading" towers, but reception never improves. How can AT&T legally claim to have full coverage in this area when the service is practically unusable?

All three of us had iPhone 3G and 3Gs phones until June, then switched to iPhone 4s. The reception has been somewhat better with the iPhone 4, but barely, so it's not the phones. Outside I can get 1-2 bars and have a call last for a while. In my home, 0-1 bars and the calls drop in seconds. This is crazy. HOWEVER, today (10 / 13 / 2010) the AT&T rep I spoke to stated that a new tower being built a mile NW of our home is scheduled for activation on November 17th (they got the construction going before the FCC put the kabosh on new cell towers being built two months ago). We'll see... my guess is that it's somewhere around 44th and Thunderbird, but I'll have to drive around and hunt. I bought a MicroCell for in the home, and I can talk for almost 2 minutes before that drops calls. That technology is too new and too quirky, and besides, it's a band-aid to the real issue.

Calls drop at random when in the house. Is this going to improve or not? I love our iphones (4 phones in family). Should we stay with AT&T or switch? Please help!

One bar a good days, 0 on others. Indoor reception non-existent.

My phone shows that I have full 3G reception but lately I can only use apps that require internet intermittently (around 1-3 minutes of usage before the phone shows roaming) and can't use Safari for web browsing. Not sure if AT&T has become overloaded in the area or not but lately having all the features on the phone have become worthless because I can't use them. Traveled to OC the other day and had full use, so not my phone causing the problem. Is anyone else having problems with gaining access to the net?

I've had really good 3G reception - until yesterday. Lucky to get any bars now on 3G and Edge is less than reliable. Does anyone else notice a recent drop in coverage? Tried to email AT&T but that wasn't working either. Love the phone and rely on it, but can't rely on it the way it is right now.

I rarely get sufficient bars to complete a call from my home area. Moving outdoors does not make much difference. I might start out with 5 bars, but it quickly deteriorates to 0 and drops the call.

I get no reception at home and experience dropped calls everwhere I go. AT&T is almost non-existent in Scottsdale. What is UP with this place? From what I've read wireless serive is pathetic in all of AZ. It's as if we live in the "backwoods."

Poor call quality inside home. Cannot place calls from inside home, must go outside. Typically 2 out of 5 bars

Poor reception... lose about 50% of calls

I just moved to this area of Scottsdale and while my phone always says that I have 3-5 bars, I am constantly dropping calls. Once again... like most people... I love the phone, but AT&T's service is awful. I also have another AT&T phone that I use for work (HTC Tilt) which has actually even worse with dropped calls with supposed full signal. I actually travel around town for work every day and it's more or less the same across town. I would hope that there are good niches, but I sure haven't found them.

I have four phones with AT&T none of them get service in this area / Their map says good coverage and it is a 3 g network. my kids have to go up on the roof to get 1-2 bars so they can make calls from home.

Zero to 1 bar with ATT, this SUCKS!

Just purchased Iphone yesterday and I am SO sad. No reception

Calls drop in this area of South Scottsdale / North Tempe / West Mesa virtually every time. ATT says this is best 3G, but there is a dead spot with no coverage.

AT&T is awful in all of north scottsdale and north phoenix
