Nearly the entire length of Briarcliff Rd.between North Druid Hills Rd.and Northlake Mall is extremely weak. Signal strength fluctuates between 1-bar and 'No Service'. Verizon Wireless performed a signal test along this stretch of Briarcliff in November 2005 and confirmed the signal is poor, but they said they had no plans to upgrade signal towers in this area.
I am driving West toward Piedmont and as soon as I leave the neighborhood and just prior to reaching the I-85 HOV Access Road, the signal ALWAYS drops!
Lots of dropped calls and occasional static connections where you can barely hear the other person. Sometimes calls are ended just because my phone no longer wants me to talk to someone. I recieve text messages a day after they were sent. It is better than T-Mobile and Sprint for where I live. T-Mobile was laughable at home and work, the two most needed usage areas, as it simply didn't work unless I was outside. Sprint worked at home but not work. I am going to try Verizon.
VERIZON IS GREAT! I had ATT, it was bad and switched to Cingular. Cingular got worse and worse and worse. Dropped calls non-stop everywhere. Bad service everywhere. Dr.2 feet and better, drive 2 feet and worse. I just switched to Verizon after seeing Consumer Reports article about surveys saying that Verizon had best reception in Atlanta, with least number of dropped calls. In app. 2 months with Verizon GREAT RECEPTION. I've only had one dropped call total. With Cingular I got several dropped calls a day. Verizons reeptioin is great indoors and out. 30306 works everywhere. I love Verizon so far.
Live SW of Greenbriar Mall, have no problems with reception at any locations in town or out. Travel state of Georgia with my job and have found service to be wonderful. Have used phone for road emergencies when car broke down near Columbus one time and another near Augusta.
