I have often said the iphone kicks ass and AT&T sucks ass. Pardon my language, but really it is amazing that they are blowing this opportunity to be the preeminent carrier. Worse yet, there is a huge AT&T building like a mile away in Hillcrest with enough antennas on top for the NSA. From my home (!) calls get dropped ALL THE TIME.
Reception comes and goes. It is terrible. I have to stand in a corner, which makes great for conversation. I get 3 or 4 bars here and there but for 95% of the time in 99.9% of my house / area I get really crappy reception or no reception. As for dropped calls, don't even get me started. - Spoke with ATT they stated that there are several towers down at the moment in my area. I've been told by several ATT subscribers in this area they all get the same "statement" from ATT and they have been speaking to ATT about this issue for years. -Might switch back to Verizon. So long iPhone.
calls on my cell get dropped constantly when i'm in the house. Have to keep my land line for calls from the house. I don't even bother trying to answer the cell at home, to frustrating also drops calls going up Bernardo Heights Pkwy. and Camino Del Norte Towards Carmel Mountain Rd.
After several (20+) conversations and complaints to AT&T, I'm going to have switch providers. The coverage fluctuates from 4 bars to no bars at any given time of day. Dropped calls are the rule not the exception. Was thinking about a cell signal booster but there are no promises made by manufacturers for success. AT&T's final word was they don't promise coverage in all areas. I'll miss my iphone!
I live in clairemont behind the square and for the last 3 months I have been getting horrible reception, dropped called left and right, and takes me about 2-3 times to send a text.
No reception inside buildings most of the time. Have to wander around outside until catching a signal and call quality is poor when I finally get through.
The ONLY way to make AT&T work in San Diego is to hack your phone and force it to use Enhanced Full Rate. Otherwise, you get crappy, distorted calls that sound as if they're coming from Mars. AT&T has always been horrible and everything the company touches turns to junk. Blame it on the CEO and board of directors who get paid a lot to run a cheapskate outfit where the customers are screwed.
