the iPHONE 3GS has been a big disappointment. For all the money we pay per month it's not worth it. It drops calls all over the place especially at home in Emeryville. No reception. It switches between Edge and 3G while I'm in the same spot. ATT and APPLE owe us money back!

horrible reception right at my building, dropped calls in apt. was never a problem with the old phones pre-pda / smart phone.

Terrible reception everywhere I go. Frequent dropped calls. Once dropped, can't make a call for 10 minutes, as the network is "no service" or "emergency only." I think ATT should be sued.

I was very excited to get an iPhone until I brought it home and found no reception where I live. I am devastated and will consider taking back my fancy new iPhone in the next 30 days. I live in a condo and have the door intercom connect to my cell phone, no one can visit me right now, alas.

Signed up for AT&T with a spiffy LG Shine, had awesome service the first day, then I could hardly make any calls anywhere in the Mission. Guy at Best Buy said it was the phone, it wasnt, tried a Sony Erickson580 and had the same terrible reception. Im going back to Verizon.

OOPS: in error and in my frustration from dealing with ATT, I accidentally listed my first post as Alltel, which is incorrect. I have ATT. 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 Sprint.

I cannot make calls most of the time. And often, if do, they are dropped within minutes.

I usually get six bars reception and an ocasional static or break. I receive and send all my calls except at Tanforan Sears basement and Target Daly City

Can not get any reception in my house, right in middle of block between 14th and 15th. Used to be able to get weak reception when I had AT&T. I've had it - I'm going to look for a new carrier.
