No reception inside the house. One bar, maybe, if I go outside away from the house. Two blocks away at Benham St. and Dunbar Hill Rd.I can get 4-5 bars. I guess AT&T believes that fresh air is good for me. My previous Cingular phone was just as bad.

I have very few problems. My phone is trash and so if I have the attenna covered then my reception goes down, but otherwise very good everywhere I go. A little spotty in Woodbridge, but otherwise good. The East Rock park issue might be fixed because I noticed a tower not listed on the map. Could this be a new tower that no one know about? Its on State street near ridge hill school.

Cingular is pretty good at my house, lets see if it is good in VT at my school.

Poor to no reception north of East Rock Park. Good reception in every other direction except north of the park.

the whole area from alice peck school to west woods school bad reception its patchy from average to no reception u need look for a spot u get good reception

I have Sprint PCS service which is really no service at all at my home on the back side of East Rock. Not only do I not have Sprint Service, but when I turn the phone to roam, the service is spotty. I work in dowtown New Haven where Sprint service is fine. But I lose my signal all over the rest of the area... sometimes on the shore, along Quinnipiac Ave, and certainly when I head west into the Valley. If you call customer service they'll give you free roaming time to make up for poor service areas. Still, I'm frustrated when they tell me I should have service... I don't.

At home (streets listed) I have poor reception. Phone goes into roaming occasionally. Even when I display several reception bars, people on the phone with me complain about drop outs. I have experienced similar spotty coverage elsewhere in the state, when I travel, I almost always get better reception, so I know the problem is not with the phone itself.

When we moved to New Haven we arrived with T-Mobile and two high-end phones. We had to switch because call dropped predictibly every few min. So we made the mistake to switch to Sprint... and even worse with a 2 year contract. What was I thinking? Anyway, it has been horrible. I can't get reception in my building almost in the middle of Yale campus. There are several dead spots along Whitney Ave. and in Hamden coverage is spotty. When you drive into the countryside you may as well leave your phone at home. Some folks say that it's east and west rock that screw up the reception. Be that as it may, it got so aggravating that I finally broke my contract. Both Verizon and Cingular have a good reputation in the New Haven area. We'll see.

Hardly connects and if so, then is quickly lost. I get a voicemail alert the next day from the night before. Verizon thinks i'm crazy. It's a new digital phone and my fiance's old analog works perfect. Signal is lost as soon as one enters the West portion of the apartment complex. Maybe it's all the Wi-Fi jamming the signal????????! pissed though.
