I switched from Verizon and obviously AT&T has not met my expectations. Real bad reception, lot of static and dropped calls right in front of the tower. THAT IS CALLED SERVICE. Secondly, for everyone who is planning to switch to AT&T for a 3G phone, make sure YOU DO NOT BUY AND / OR SWITCH. Verizon is far better with their EVDO then waiting for AT&T to put in 3G in Des Moines. AT&T was planning to install the 3G network here in Des Moines before the end of October but nothing yet. They keep on pushing the dates trying to buy as many customers with their promises. I am not at all satisfied with either the service and / or the customer satisfaction crap with AT&T

"More bars in more places" - not so much. No signal in "best" coverage area. I realize the coverage map is just an estimation, but it couldn't more incorrect. It's like me saying the sky is orange, and then following that with a disclaimer that my observation of the sky was just an estimation.

Coverage map shows we are in "Best" converage, but that isn't the case. Our entire townhome association is a dead zone for AT&T (0 to 1 bar). Travel a block East and it has decent service (3 bars). Water tower just went up in our area. Hoping they throw some cell repeater / towers on there.

If you work at WFHM in West Des Moines, then don't plan on getting a hold of anyone from your US Cellular phone at the campus. It just doesn't work. The phone works everywhere else.

We are getting very little reception in the outer parts of Polk City. They have a major housing project going there and we are getting no reception in this new area.
