I have tried every cell phone service. And the only one that works good is Sprint. I even get reception in the basement which is great!

AT&T contract really got me screwed up. Reception is as terrible. I will be switching to T-Mobile or Cingular next week.

I moved all of our sales people from Nextel to AT&T. What a mistake. No reception inside buildings, spotty outside, dropped calls. Terrible.

Dropped calls are the norm. Static, echo, distortion, and generally poor reception most of the time. This goes for NW suburbs, W suburbs, loop, NW city. I blame most of it on the phone itself, but I'm getting out of this contract ASAP.

AT&T TDMA sucks. No reception at home. I have to go outside to try to talk!

I have 2-3 bars even in the elevator. Great service in this area.

Suckie suckie suckie nothing at all - totally dead.

Awful reception in pockets on north side.

I had adequate reception in the house and perfect reception outdoors for about a year. Then starting in May 2004 I get almost no reception anywhere my house and shakey reception outside.

Very poor reception. Zero signal inside our three flat. Even when I go outside to make or receive calls, only 1 or two bars on this block. About to change but it sounds like Chicago just sucks for GSM.
