ATT reception in this neighborhood is terrible! Cell signal is unreliable and I have yet to actually finish a conversation in the years that I have lived here. Sprint actually seems to work here. Am researching cell phone boosters.
I occasionaly lose signal (drop). More often it's the data signal. Voice seems much more robust. Our location is challenging. I'm in the shadow of the radio tower on Twin Peaks. The tower sometimes effects our stereo's radio reception and creates buzz in electronics (feedback).
If I sit on a particular chair and face Mecca, I can talk. If I move, I redial. The service was great when I first switched a few years ago, but it suddenly changed. I've called several times, they're not going to fix it. I'm here hoping to find someone with decent reception so I can switch to their provider. Verizon is worthless up here! Their commercials make me want to hurt someone, liars!
I can get phone calls, in that it rings (sometimes), but I cannot have conversations. My phone was bad when I lived at Haight and Ashbury, but now it is far worse. I've been forced to get a landline so that I can communicate with others. Sucks.
About 2 bars in the plane when taxiing and 1 bar in the terminal, with reception cutting in and out. How can AT&T claim global coverage when they cannot provide service at a major airport?
1 in 4 calls gets dropped but can reconnect without difficulty. Reception generally pretty good in SF but dropped calls is a frequent annoyance with Sprint.
No reception at all in my apartment, or at best calls are dropped after a few moments. Reception is patchy on 20th between Guerrero and Dolores, and even on Guerrero between 19th and 20th. There's no reason I should have to walk a block and a half to have an uninterrupted conversation, without being dropped or cut off. Had a Sanyo phone prior to the Blackberry, and had similar problems.
I need to lean very close to my window to get 2 bars so I can talk. My social life is dwindling fast! I also get calls dropped when I'm in the middle of booking tickets and am put on hold. Not fun.
