We've had occasional dropped calls from AT&T and Cingular. Yesterday, tho, no service whatsoever. The phones have 5 bars, but will not receive calls / text messages or send calls / text messages at the intersection listed above. They will, however, receive and send from outside DC.

I always have five bars, but the calls drop after two minutes of talking to just about anyone. I had Verizon for a year before this and would recommend its' service. The Cingular service is not nearly as good. I wish I were not locked in for two years - if a cell phone company does not provide the service required of them, one should be able to discontinue service.

I have had sprint,verizon,voicestream,t-mobile and AT&T tdma and gsm phones and by far the at&t's gsm phones are far more reilable when you are talking in the reception catagory in most places that I hav been on the east coast I have had great service with the AT&T network and to be honest I really would have liked it better if AT&T would have bought cingular, becaue Cingular on the other hand has a more (non) customer service here is one example AT&T customer service deparment never closed but not of the merger cingulars customer service department closes at 9p.m. est

im looking for a GOOD cell phone company to get cause Cingular aint nothing cause any time I sit in my house and cant get no reception in my house then I know the phone aint good I really want Sprint but does it have good reception where I live

Reception is very good. I do not have any issues outside or in our building. The phones does have problems in the garage as well as in Chadwicks but other then that it works well.

I have used two Nokia phones in my home with perfect reception at all times, and a Sony Ericsson that never worked, all on Cingular's network. My only gripe is no service on the train...

New Cingular GSM netwok has very poor coverage in the Dupont East corridor.

I have been using Cingular service for a while. I was using Cingular TDMA service; I never had any problem about this particular area. Recently I have switch to Cingular GSM service. It seem like Cingular GSM coverage is great in out door. But In door single is very week and very bad in certain areas. I work near construction Ave. & 23 rd street NW in Washington D.C. near State department. My Samsung s307 pick-ups very good signal outside in this particular area but inside the building is pretty bad. If I go inside the building about 50 to 100 feet my cell is dead and no service available. It happens to me many building around that corner. I think Cingular should install another GSM tower in that area.

The Service has been rock solid for years. But a few months ago I started missing random calls... only to be notified of voicemail hours later. The phone always showed full service level.

I Never had problem with AT&T since I started using Samsung X426, I had a Seimens phone before this and that was just a mess.
