The WORST SERVICE EVER. I have spotty coverage, the phone switches between 3G, Edge and G and I constantly drop calls... inside and even outside! I can walk 2 blocks up to Market and get a perfect 3G signal, and walk 2 blocks to Valencia and get a perfect Edge signal (even though the service is still spotty-at least it is consistent). However, in Dolores Mission... weak coverage. Per ATT Tech support, it is a weak coverage area and they plan to build a tower at 16th and Guerrero... but no idea when. My roommate has Sprint and can talk in the basement. I on the other hand, standing in the bay window or walking down the street, can watch my signal go from full bars to 1 bar and so on and so on. Their techinal support is lacking also and from other posts on here, see I am not the only one. I am going to Spring.
My phone usually doesn't even ring in my home. Making a call near my Upper Market home is a fool's errand: The call drops every single time. It's necessary to have a land-line in this area because AT&T's service is so unreliable.
Ridiculous! I have to reset my iPhone several times a day because it doesn't detect any cellular signal. I never had this many dropped calls or calls that simply don't go through with Sprint. Granted, I've never complained to AT&T. I say we deluge them with letters. :P
I hate ATT for many reason, but get perfectly decent reception in most areas including the Canadian Rockies on vacation. I get 3-5 bars in my SOMA apartment even in the section that is below ground level. The fact is that the specific phone plays much of the issue, and the iPhone's reception SUCKS! All my friends who have one have issues, but those of us that stuck with older phones have little to no problem anywhere. Of course I did have bad reception around Kanab Utah, but look it up on a map and you'll understand why. No problem in Page, Grand Canyon, Flagstaff, Sedona or Phoenix areas.
ATT is a joke. Drops at least three calls every day driving home from work. Fails to make callls, voicemail doesn't show up for hours. Why did I switch from Verizon???
