Cingular is a reference to the number of bars. I want to throw my phone at the TV everytime I see a Cingular commercial.

The dead zone of dead zones. I guess with the abundance of foliage it completely blocks tower signals along the stretch between I-295 and Branch Avenue.

I get no service here, in the metro, nor in most of hte buildings I go in. I travel around DC as part of my job and Cingular service is awful.

No reception inside building mid-block on G. Reception has never been a problem with this phone in DC or other cities, even in buildings.

It would be nice to one day make a call from my house that doesn't drop and require me to go outside to finish a conversation.

Cingular LG freebie
Western Avenue / Oregon Ave. NW / Western Avenue / Oregon Ave. NW intersection, Washington, DC 20015 Thu Nov 09, 2006

I have Cingular and use the "freebie" LG cell phone that they gave for signing up. I live right next to Rock Creek Park. When I had Verizon and AT&T, I had no coverage at all at home. Cingular, however, I can use at home, but I very rarely get the FULL bars. Sometimes I do; sometimes I don't. I travel quite a bit, and my Cingular coverage around the country, from coast to coast, has been GREAT. I think Rock Creek Park and all those tall trees is the reason I cannot get GREAT coverage when I am at home. I think all cell phone coverage sucks a big weenie in the Chevy Chase / D.C. area.

Dumped T-mobile. The mobile means go outside to get average reception. Verizon is great! 4+ I dreamed of someday making a call indoors, instead of outside in the freezing cold. Rarely has Verizon been weak. It treats me well in PA, CA, AZ and everywhere in between.

42nd St. NW / Beecher St. NW intersection, Washington, DC 20007 Fri Sep 15, 2006

No signal whatsoever with Sony Ericsson GSM phone since July 2006. Tried SIM in other GSM phones to no avail. Cingular claimed there are at least 10 towers in area but I could neither place nor receive calls from my location. Otherwise fair to strong signal throughout DC and northern VA.
