I have Hot Spots at Home connectivity that works every other day. I'm pretty frustrated at this moment but my next call may get a great connection using Edge or Wi-Fi. Very frustrating actually.

ATT coverage is terrible in Santa Monica and south into Mar Vista along 23rd St / Walgrove.

Wow, better than ATT here.. loving my new phone and 3g coverage

Over the past month I have had calls drop almost constantly. I cannot finish a 5 min conversation without the call being lost. I love Verizon, and have had great reception all over the US (I drove coast to coast twice and never had a problem), but in this location it is INSANE. So frustrating.

I pay $75 a month to AT&T, which they're apparently spending on commercials claiming they offer 3G service, instead of spending it on actually providing it. There's no reception here, period. I've never been able to complete a phone call in this area... within the first few seconds, the connection degrades to nothing and it's impossible to talk. I got suckered into a 2-year plan, a total of about $1800, for a phone that's basically a paperweight. I have no idea how AT&T gets away with this scam. Do NOT do "business" with them.

Worst cell phone reception ever. AT&T in LA is terrible. In my apartment I get 1 to 2 bars tops and dropped calls all the time. Needless to say there is no 3G. Outside, no improvments. I also work in Century City and the reception is terrible too. I'm going to start a facebook group to join everyone together who thinks that AT&T in LA sucks. With enough people, I'm sure we can get them to do something. Look for it soon and join.

I live on the first floor of a 2 story apartment building. I have NO service inside apartment and 1 to 2 bars on the street and surrounding areas. HORRIBLE service...

Coverage was good until a week ago. Now all AT&T users at our company (about 12+) get no signal at all, and we're high up in a building in sight of the cell tower 2 blocks away. Interestingly, iPhone users with 3g or 3gs phones get 100% reception?!? WTF?

I hate AT&T. I've had nothing but trouble since transferring my landline # in 2004. 4 months of an incomplete port that took intervention by the CPUC before it was fixed. (They basically wanted to keep my # because it is an old original Lockheed-Martin # that apparently has some kind of value).Then I couldn't get service in Venice. They blamed it on my handset, which was replaced 4 times, SIM 3 times, battery 2 times. Turned out they just hadn't upgraded the towers and didn't want to say so. Ate my life, but was mobile to mobile with the BF, so stuck. Got the Samsung (373?) and finally no problems for a year, then moved to Santa Monica from Venice and NO SERVICE AT ALL. They just keep lying to me, spent 18 hours on the phone and in the store in the last month. Yesterday they sent me a free new Nokia to "better connect with the towers", cuz You know, I'm in their "best service area", so they just can't understand why I'm getting no service. The phone arrived with the battery plate jammed, so I had to take it to the store on Wilshire, where I was told that the new phone is on the EDGE system instead of 3G, that Santa Monica won't let them put up 3G towers, so the 3G phones mostly don't work. Screw AT&T, they don't EVER tell the truth. Does antbody have a working cell phone in Santa Monica, and if so, who"s your carrier. I live on 23rd near Ocean Park. Thanks.

Drop calls and roaming. Spotty EVDO service.
