Can't call out with the iPhone. Received phone from my company, apparently they do not have another carrier. They ordered me the microcell, which depends on my Internet service to get a signal. With the microcell, I get decent reception with both voice and data, but when my DSL goes out, I am back to nothing. Personal service is Sprint. We bought a cheap signal booster (~$100), and as long as we are standing right next to it, we can get a decent signal, no dropped calls. So far, the best I have seen in this area is my parents' T-Mobile phones. They can walk around the house and only drop about 50% of the calls. If they are near the signal booster, they get a good signal. I think my mom's Android was able to get data no problem.

Att has terrible coverage in this area. Really surprises me since this is in the city. What's worse, they plain don't care.

I have reception in the basement bathroom where probably the exhaust pipe acts as some sort of antenna but that's about it. There are a few spots in the kitchen.

N Union / Vickers / Palmer Park / powers, Colorado Springs, CO 80915 Fri Aug 26, 2011

poor reception at home in apartments even though coverage map says it should be good in this area. almost no reception at all at work, where again, coverage map says it should be best / good. dropped calls, calls don't come through, voicemail comes in an hour later. texting can't send if call is trying to come through, but the call doesn't show. Calls get diverted to voicemail if texting. VERY frustrating for business. Considering changing service providers- looks like Sprint and Verizon both have better coverage for the areas I live and work in, but don't know if their coverage maps might be as inaccurate as AT&T's

No service at work or home. Reception went to bad to worse! Not sure what to do at this point. We have two I phones, no land Line. Had Sprint before and it was reasonable. Basically, the phones are useless now. Called customer service, no resolve yet! Phone cut out even with them.

Kept getting "call failed" and dropped calls on both my wife's and mines Iphone 4's last couple months and couldn't even make calls last week from that location or around town. Have a year left and willing to pay the "early termination fee" Signed up with Verizon and two new Iphone 4's, hopefully the service will be better. Verizon has a trade in program depending on how old and what condition your Iphone 4 is in. (enough to pay for the early termination fee). Folks I've talked to have had no real problem with phone calls on their Verizon Iphone (just the rare occassion) Hey, I know the technology isnt perfect but really ATT network seems to have only gotten worse over time... plus Verizon is bringing 4G LTE service out much faster than ATT (already in alot of major cities) and its coming to Colorado Springs by beginning of next year. The next version of Iphone will probably have 4G LTE. I opted for the current Iphone 4 because I needed a phone now. I'll just wait for the time I can upgrade to a Iphone with 4G LTE (Android phones a little to buggy for my taste) at least I should be able to make a basic phone call with it! So if basic phone call capability is important to you don't let the whistle and bells cloud your decision on choosing a phone.

My call even got dropped while talking to AT&T Customer Service! I have to get a new phone now, but I absolutely Refuse to sign a new 2yr contract with At&T! They lie on their complete coverage ads! But it's looking like all cell service companies are like politicians..they all lie and it's a choice of the lesser of the evils.

Gleneagle / Struthers, Colorado Springs, CO 80921 Fri May 06, 2011

Switched from Alltel to AT&T by AT&T purchase of Alltel properties in our previous area. Although Alltel did not have towers in our new area, (Colorado Springs), we were using either Sprint or Verison towers while here - no reception issues. Now very questionable reception at my house. People have tried calling my wife on her cell phone multiple times, some giving up, some finally getting through. I have trouble calling from my home but get good reception at work (Garden of Gods and Forge). This is only day two on AT&T, not sure we'll stay with them. Contract runs out 1-Jun-11, now exploring options. Suggestions welcome.

If you are near the intersection of Powers and Fountain don't even try to use your phone in doors. It says I have 3 to 4 bars but can't connect to my data network and I'm not receiving calls.

Middle Creek / Voyager, Colorado Springs, CO 80921 Thu Mar 31, 2011

The phone reports decent coverage here in Northgate where I live, usually 4 / 5 or 5 / 5 bars. However, ever since the iPhone came along we get dropped calls absolutely all the time. For a period of time in the summer of 2010 we would probably drop 1 out of 2 calls within the first minute, or often just be unable to dial out at all (connection error). AT&T reportedly made some network improvements last fall to address the problems, and now it's maybe 1 out of 5 calls are dropped. I'm tired of competing with the stupid iPhone for just having enough bandwidth to make a silly voice call. We're leaving as soon as we can. I believe that there is a Sprint tower about a mile west of us at I-25 and roughly mile marker 155, and no iPhone bandwidth hogs on Sprint. Also, there is zero coverage on Centennial about half a mile north of 30th all the way around Ute Valley Park to Eagleview middle school.

AT&T's air card is worthless. I work out of my home, and spend more time trying to connect / re-connect than I spend on work. I will literally get 20-30 "reconnect" pop-up windows every hour. I can't wait to get rid of this thing and get something that allows me to focus on my job instead of thrashing around on AT&Ts problems.

The reception is zero in this area. If you happen to get one or two bars when the wind blows in the right direction you don't get them for very long so it's not worth even trying to make a call. I am planning on paying out of my contract as soon as I figure out the best coverage for the area I spend most of time in.

I've suffered with AT&T wireless reception for years, iPhone 3G and now iPhone 4. This week bought a Verizion iPhone 4 for wife. FANTASTIC! Side by side, she has 4-5 bars, I have 1-2. If you live in Mountain Shadows, and are looking at the iPhone, DEFINITELY get the Verizion version. I would trade in my AT&T iPhone 4 right now, but there are rumors of an iPhone 5 coming out this year.

UCCS, Colorado Springs, CO 80919 Thu May 27, 2010

Moved here about 4 years ago for school, since being here I have had awesome reception. My freshman year I did a lot of hiking and biking and never lost service. I will say it seems like everyone here has Verizon or AT&T but I get better service from AT&T and there network never seems to be overloaded here so my internet speeds are great. I would never switch!

I drop 1 / 2 of all calls. Terrible customer service. In my home I get 1 bar on average and it will jump up to 3-4 once every week or two then drop back down to 1. It is worth it to me to pay the 300 early cancelation fee and go back to T-Mobile where I had no problems.

Every once in a while, if I stand at the end of my driveway, I can get enough information to identify the person calling me so I can call them back on my land line. The only reason I have a land line is because I cannot use my cell phone at home - absolutely 0-1 coverage. I have free long-distance on my cell phone and have family in Ohio and CA. I can only call them while driving out of the area. I can predict with utmost certainty where exactly my calls will drop. We have three different phones at home and all of them do not have coverage. I despise my 2 year contract and will run to my new carrier the day it is up. Still not certain which carrier - but our friends with Verizon can use their cell phones at our house without problem. Probably Verizon will be my next roll of the dice.
