So frustrating to have a freelance job and not have coverage around my own house. To return a voicemail, I must get in my car and drive 3 blocks where I have a reliable signal! iPhone is aweome, AT&T way behind the ball for network coverage in a very very populated area of Chicago!

AT&T sucks. Calls are dropped all the time and even when I do get through the calls usually dont last for more than 5-10 minutes. After that the service starts to go in and out and it is impossible to understand what the other person is saying. I would definitly NOT recommend AT&T and plan on switching to a new service soon once I figure out which one would be best.

AT&T is the worst provider! I had no choice wanting to have iPhone (love it). I thought monopoly was illegal. Worst service and coverage in the world! not worth switching!

My reception inside my home office is horrible. When I find a spot with a couple of bars and make or receive a call, and stay completely STILL, the bars can swing down to 1 or else I get disconnected. It's horrible. Is this a conspiracy by AT&T to keep us on our landlines? I end up paying for a lot more long distance landline service than necessary.

For paying over $100 / month to a network that boasts about more bars in more places... I think they should just change their slogan to No Bars in More Places. I'm in the same boat with the rest that wish to cancel their contract and switch to another provider. It's too bad considering I'm in love with my phone. If only the partner to make it functional would produce better service.

AT&T iPhone only works near the window of my 3rd floor apartment facing west. Dropped calls and delayed / lost text messages are the norm. My roommate has Verizon and has full service. I love the iPhone, but it is getting to the point where I will switch service to a CDMA family carrier and use the iPhone as a glorified iPod Touch.

I hesitate to even add my comments... as it seems like all AT&T users have poor or no reception, especially in their homes. I doubt very much that anyone is listening to the tsunami of complaints, however. For the city that supposedly "works" something as critical as cell phone coverage is a flat out failure. Can you hear me now??? because I can't!

Switched from T-Mobile because of dropped calls (5-10 / day). I'm a heavy user all over Chicago area 6000min / mth. T-Mobile got much worse in last few months. Verizon-so far not nothing special. Not happy with BB Storm. Lots of issues!

I'm sick of AT&T - I get NO reception at all. I can almost never dial out or receive a call, and on the rare occasion I can, the call will drop within 10-15 seconds. USELESS. Is there anyway to get out of a contract if you NEVER have cell reception?

Barely any reception at all. I go from 5 bars of 3G to maybe 1 or 2 bars of EDGE or GSM just by turning the corner. Poor reception lasts for about a block or so north, then gets great again.

I have always had crappy cell service, but this is the worst. I have AT&T and an I-Phone. Does anyone in this area or building (NYPR) have better luck with another carrier? GSM works great in Europe, but I have found that in the US it is very unpredictable. What carriers may be better at this address?

The reception was never strong but appears to be getting worse. Calls continue to get dropped and data is almost non-existent. Considering going back to Sprint which I thought I'd never say.

Works ok at street level. My flat is on a higher floor (30+). Signal quality varies widely, and calls drop constantly so can't use it at home.

I have dropped calls all the time! If I need to make a call I normally have to go outside to do it. Even then I may have 1 or 2 bars. I am sick and tired of dealing with customer service and having them tell me I should have good service. They claim there are 3 towers near by and that reception should not be a problem. If that is the case though, WHY am I dropping calls every day and WHY do I have to go outside for my calls?? I am sick and tired of ATT and dealing with this crap!

Great reception around here near the junction. When I lived at LSD / Irving, I did not have any reception. Reception gets very poor in downtown buildings and NO reception near O'Hare and NW suburbs. At office in Itasca, it is hopeless.

I switched from Verizon to AT&T for the iPhone. Went from perfect reception at my place to having to stand within 2 ft of the window to have any hope of making a call. It's unbearable... I think I need to switch back.
