I moved to West Hollywood from Denver, CO 4 months ago. I am simply shocked at how horrible AT&T's reception is here. I don't want to give up my iPhone... but it appears I will have to as it just doesn't work here. If I am home, I can use my wifi to connect to my apps... but forget about making or receiving a call. I can go on my roof and pray... but isn't worth the $125 per month for a mobile phone that you can't talk on! I hate that they won't even acknowledge the issue... EVERYONE in my neighborhood who has an iPhone jokes about it... and they do nothing. To me, it's a breach of contract... I guess I am going to have to give up my iPhone and switch carriers... seriously, its not like I live in the backwoods... it's LA for God's sake... can't they do something!

AT&T in West Hollywood is TERRIBLE! I, like several others on here, have to stand in a corner and hang over a balcony to get ANY RECEPTION, even though the service claims 4 bars. Always drops calls here, and many other places in West Hollywood area. It's so frustrating! Just an FYI, I had Sprint servie before this and switched to AT&T for an iPhone (I'm a Mac freak), but the Sprint coverage was FLAWLESS. Both here and all over LA. And now with the new Palm Pre, I think it may be worth switching back so I dont have to drive down the street to talk on the phone. AT&T SUCKS and are so much more expensive! Sprint's $99 Simply Everything Plan is the shizzle!

I just moved to Los Angeles from Cincinnati Ohio and I'm very frustrated with AT&T. The service in-my home is virtually non - existant. I have to stand in the corner of my living room to not have calls drop. I'm also finding that coverage is poor throughout the LA area. I have at least 10 - 15 calls drop each day. The 3G service is also very sporadic. What I find so amazing, is that the phone will show full bars, yet the calls continue to drop or will be very poor quality. I feel like filing a class action lawsuit against AT&T for their poor service. I, like most others, am paying them a lot of money for contracted service which I'm not getting. I may just walk away from my contract and pay whatever penalties they assess just to have a phone that works!

ATT is completely useless in Hollywood in general. Is there no legal obligation on ATT 's part to offer service in areas they sell phones and service for?

Reception with my iPhone inside my apt is HORRIBLE. Anyone else has the same bad experience? Signal is better inside the parking garage, in the lower level and inside the elevator than inside the apt. I have only one spot near the balcony where I can speak wondering if the person on the other side can hear me. On that spot I already have a little stool, cigarettes and ashtray, coz that's the only place I can get signal and speak. Sucks!

I have used Cingular / ATT for nine years at the same location. When ATT took over my reception on 3 different brand name phones (Samsung, LG, and Motorola) all fell from 3-4 bars to 0-1 bar at home. And there has been a sharp increase in dropped calls in other areas where I am getting 4-5 bars. We are all being led to believe that mediocre service from any carrier is the 'NEW STANDARD'. I am frustrated and tired of switching companies ony to find the same poor service. To top it off, phone companies are now dumping customers that complain too much about their poor service and reception. So when do the class action law suits begin, and where can I sign up??

On Robertson between Santa Monica and Melrose there is zero service. No incoming, no outgoing.

I've called Nextel for the past three years about this four mile stretch of Sunset. they always kindly note my concern and occasionally promise that the new tower will be in place "next week." It has yet to materialize.

Terrible reception. Can only speak on speakerphone. Movement equals dropped signals. I don't know if anyone is better than Sprint around here?

I'm shopping for a new carrier. I have two LG phones -- one for work and one for personal use. When I am at home I have to sit or stand in very particular spots or I have no coverage. Even if I do have coverage calls are dropping all the time. Last night was the final straw. I have no idea of why this is happening. I've lived in this apartment for 7 years and never had a problem before. Yes, the phone is also 7 years old but the work model is newer so that can't be it. If they are adding towers and not taking them away why is the service worse now? Thank goodness my contract has expired and I'm a free agent. I'm going to give Sprint a chance to take my business away from Verizon. Their EVO looks like just the phone for me.
