Verizon is great in terms of customer service and reception, but their phones kinda suck. The curve is a great little workhorse, but when will Verizon get the iPhone?
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???
All of the sudden, iPhone releases it's MMS software and my AT&T service sucks nearly everywhere in San Francisco, including my house which has always been dependable. Coincidence with the mms option for iPhones-- I have no idea, but AT&T sucks regardless.
Mostly get 0 to 1 bar inside, at any location near Cole Valley, UCSF, Inner Sunset. No bars inside or out at Diamond Heights, Twin Peaks and most of Corona Heights. Customer service at AT&T is a joke, rude and major time suckage. I put off getting the iPhone because AT&T has a monopoly and am glad I didn't renew my contract with them. I have all services with them right now but am switching to Verizon's 3G, TV and internet tomorrow.
