POOR (1 bar and dropped calls) once you enter the neighborhood around Ansley Mall / Morningside.

Mediocre. Both Verizon Wireless and AT&T coverage are weak around our home and Atlanta. I really don't understand why reception is so mediocre in a large city like the Atlanta metro area. Especially since Atlanta is the home of Cingular / AT&T Wireless.

This area is in a valley, unfortunately I am here a lot of the time and get crumby reception. At either end of Chamblee Dunwoody, I get 5 bars.

Very poor reception. Even on the roof (18th floor).

Hprrendous. Constant droppedcall and locked up SMS. Especially while on marta.

Three of us went to college area with AT&T phones. NONE received any bars of service until we left. College employee said Verizon was the only one

Poor reception in and outside the apt.But I travel a lot in the metro ATL and even in rural areas, I have never had a problem.Near perfect network but I can't afford it anymore... going with T-mobile.

Alltel does not have any (even roaming) coverage in Atlanta per their representative on the phone when I spoke to them later about this.

Constantly drops calls even when standing in the same spot.

I've had Sprint service for about 10 years. When I first got it, they were the only ones who had good service where I traveled on I-20. Anyway, I've never had a problem except when I got a new phone. It was a Samsung and it sucked! I got no reception inside my house. As soon as I got my Sanyo phone that I use now, no more problems. I have coverage all over metro Atlanta with the occasional dropped call... maybe once every few months.

AT&T horrible. T-Mobile and Nextel reported OK from visiting PODS and Comcast technicians.

I live in Uptown Square apartments by the Lindbergh MARTA station off Piedmont Rd. and the reception for Sprint is horrible. I can never use my phone in my apartment without getting a dropped call or lots of breaking up. I have to go outside and hang over the balcony to have a chance of getting clear reception.

Ever since AT&T bought Cingular Wireless reception, we have dropping communications signals have become very intolerable. Plus I could contact Mr. Clendennins's office for help and get IT! But this AT&T,Congress Created and broke up, is like the old one poor service and high charges that was the performance of the old one.It is amazing how little the internet communication cost with Computer Industry Industry operation but once the Telephony lobbyist with their gaurantee for a minimum profit our telephone and internet service goes to crap!

Dropped calls all the time. Barely get a signal outside.

Great reception except in elevators of mid rise condo.

Full service area, edge works great!

I have Sprint / Nextel and my service is not good at all. We are near the East Lake Country Club. I also have problems at my work location in Marietta. Looking at the cell tower map on this site, there are no towers anywhere for a 4-8 mile radius. A tip for Sprint folks, some of the new plans don't charge for roaming now. I switched to digital roaming and my Sprint coverage actually got better? Go figure. It may also depend on your phone. I also have a small Samsung and I get pretty good bars on that phone, but my Treo gets maybe one or two at the most. Another interesting note, the Sprint customer service tech told me that since I have an out of state cell phone number, my service would be degraded?? What? I thought it was nationwide service. He said it is the way the call gets routed and the towers it looks for or something like that? I still thought something wasn't quite right, so I'm keeping my number as is and do the free roaming. For the rest of the city on 20, 75 and 285, I really don't have an issue with Sprint.

No reception in my office, other parts of campus I get "digital roaming". In midtown Atlanta? Reception also sucks in Douglasville.

going on my 3rd year with MetroPCS. NEVER had a dropped calll all over the city. Always have reception. Its hands down the best service I've ever had in Atlanta, regardless of the perks (no contract, unlimited everything, etc.). Sadly, I have to change as I now travel to uncovered spots in the US, and the "Travel Talk" feature is not so reliable. If you dont travel much, or travel to other MetroPCS markets - I sincerely recommend considering these guys.

Voice calls are good. Usually get 3 bars anywhere in the house, with good quality and no dropped calls. EVDO is flaky - despite showing 2 EVDO bars (the A990 shows both 1x and EVDO strength), data sessions will sometimes be on (sl-oow) 1x. Overall, quite happy with Verizon performance throughout Atlanta.
