Horrid, horrid, horrid. "Emergency Calls Only" most of the time. Calls dropped most of the time. Voicemail notifications DAYS late. Email notifications days late or not at all. Worst service I have ever had. Representatives simply parrot the script over and over - no help at all, they do NOT care and simply repeat over and over how long the contract is and how much they will charge (extort) to get out. Representatives are, or have been reduced to script-reading clones Never again, AT&T - you are the worst. AT&T employees reading this - Get out and save your dignity and self respect; your company is horrible.

Thinking about using AT&T in Lake Forest, parts of Rancho Santa Margarita or Irvine, think again. I get NO reception in my home and have to travel to the curb to make a call. From El Toro to Los Alisos you'll get from no reception to 2 bars. If you are out past Los Alisos, it will go up to 3 bars, but your call will likely get dropped. If you think that 911 will work, well it does, but I have timed it 3 times and it takes on average 1 minute and 30 seconds for the call to connect. If you want AT&T will sell you a $200 cell booster and offer to charge you an additional $20 per month to fix the problem, of course it is probably just cheaper to switch companies.

If you plan on buying a cell phone and live in north lake forest DO NOT use the AT&T network. Look at where the cell tower are before you buy. I have not had more than two bars for years now. Its so frustrating when I call AT&T and they tell me the reception should be fine. Well it's not. I get dropped calls daily and because I am under contract I will have to buy a prepaid phone so I can actually make and receive calls. I really hope AT&T finds a solution for the few thousands that signed on to use the network in this dead zone. BoooooO AT&T! I only love you in some areas just not where I work and live.

I can't even talk and its like crap. I called ATT and according to them my signal reception is good, though the call was getting disconnected most of the times, when I was talking with those guys.

I hardly get any reception at my apartment. I wish to change to another service provider but donno which one. ATT has simply no reception and people don't even bother to call me because of ATT!

Cell service Poor most of the time. Rare times I can communicate without going outside.

my iphone either doesn't work at all or drops EVERY call. I don't answer my phone on the 133 anymore.

have to drive 4 blocks from house and can not send text messages unless you're outside and then phone service is poor

Can I get to can's and some string and wax and make my own cell phone. Stone ages here we come

Live past the far side of the El Toro cemetery and reception isn't the only thing dead around here. I am on this site trying to find the location of the nearest AT&T tower so I can stand underneath it to make a few calls. Have been 100% unable to make any calls from here for weeks now. Totally useless.
