Hilly and a forest... not ideal.. Oddly I used to loose reception with 5 bars when I lived at Crooked Creek Apts. Then I got a new phone and it only showed 2 bars all the time and I never dropped calls in the same location.

The only lack of reception I've had with AT&T / Cingular is at the back of a Walmart store and while in the emergency room at the hospital (St Vincent's). Other than that, I've had AT&T for 8 years am extremely happy with it. I was tempted to go to Sprint, as I like their coverage / prices better, but since I don't have a land line any longer, and I know AT&T's good; I think I'll stay with what I have.

If I go outside I have fairly good reception, however, if I am in the apartment I must stay next to a window and have very spotty reception with a lot of static and / or dropped calls. Have replaced phone 3 times in 2 years, many calls to customer service, replaced sim card, replaced battery... and, hopefully it is the phone. I just ordered a Nokia 5610 having been advised that I would get much better reception at home (and some at work just 1 / 2 mile from home... others on T-Mobile with different phones seem to have no problems). At least, I have 14 days after delivery in which to decide whether to keep phone or search for another provider.

Miserable in most of my home most of the time but usually works elsewhere. On the bright side, Sprint tells me that my home reception is fine

Reception strength very sporatic throughout Indianapolis. Choppy conversations and many dropped calls. Have only had the service for about 6 days and am switching back to old carrier(AT&T / Cingular). I switched to T-Mobile because of the price but cannot deal with the poor reception / call quality. I really WANTED to like them :-(

I go to Butler, and while everyone with Verizon is leaning out of windows to get a signal, and those with Cingular get constant dropped calls, I can be anywhere on campus and have perfect reception. In this part of Indy, and many others Sprint has the others beat

I could not believe I was in downtown Indy on Maryland St., in Champions, upstairs in the Marriott and no signal. I needed to make a call and a guy on T-Mobile let me use his phone. I'll be switching to somehing else soon.

Switched to T-Mobile from Sprint and have regretted it ever since! T-Mobile is by far the worst reception ever. My calls are dropped all day long, conversation is choppy and broken up even when I have full bars. Cheap service, bad reception, and I'm stuck for 2 more years.

ATT family plan rarely drops calls and I don't have static either. I can be on for 20 to 60 min at a time without problems. Recently though I have a Verizon customer that can't get through at all. She misses 9 out of 10 times but can always get me at work (Raymond and Tibbs).

I work for AT&T and now live in Indy but I am from the 'Mo and go back frequently to visit family. If you have AT&T you're going to need a high end Nokia or Sony Ericsson phone to get decent reliable reception. I have had Cingular / AT&T in Kokomo since I was in Jr. High and am now 23. I live almost in Russiaville and used to barely get reception on my porch. Since switching to the GSM S.E. phones I now get the best reception possible through AT&T in Kokomo. As much as Centennial's phones suck, they're service is good in Mid / Northern IN. Usually whether you know it or not you're probablly roaming off they're towers in K-town anyway. Or just get Verizon. They're better for more rural areas. If you get Centennial just get 1 yr service and get a way cooler unlocked AT&T or T-Mobile phone to use.

I have had AT&T since they were Bell South in 7th grade and have even lived in Kokomo for most of the time I have had them. I live in Indy now (for the last 2 years) and I about NEVER drop calls with AT&T. I have worked for them for the last year. We could end this forum right now. It mostly comes down to what phone you use. I always get high end Nokia's or Sony Ericsson phones. Ericsson built Cingular's towers hence if you have a nice SE phone like a w810i, etc... you will get reception. Other phone brands tend to work better on other networks. Motorola often sucks on AT&T but is better with other carriers so ask your provider. Point blank if you live in more rural areas you're best bet is going to be Verizon. If you want more high tech phones or the GSM ability and to switch in and out of phones more easily go with AT&T. T-Mobile is a great carrier for larger cities like Chicago,Seattle, LA,etc. but for Indy stick with the 2 with the biggest networks. If you love POS phones with jack reception and even crappier customer service then get Sprint.

I never get signal, not in my apartment, nor at school (IUPUI). T-Mobile has recommended every possible solution more than once - phone switch, SIM card switch, service requests... . nothings changed. Too many dropped calls. T mobile apparently has great service in my neighborhood, but my phone doesn't ever catch a signal.

If you hang out the window - you may be able to make a call - take a step - it's over. Verizon customers are able to use their phones, however, unless you sit next to the windows - Cingular customers just have to sit and listen to everyone else talk on their cell phones. Cingular representatives claim they cannot put a tower in this area to help us.

Downtown Indy To Southside, Indianapolis, IN 46204 |
Wed Mar 14, 2007 |
I work in downtown Indy, and live in Greenwood. For the last month or two, I've noticed that as soon as I get past Conseco Fieldhouse on Pennsylvania, my signal just disappears. Often, there are phantom bars when this starts, and when I try to call, I get that high pitched busy signal that tells me I have nada. After that... . "no service". Signal does not return until well after Troy Ave. and Madison at best, and Southport Rd.at worst. As for south of there into Greenwood, very spotty and often just one bar. I have a Nokia phone that I bought about 4 years ago... and have not had any problems till about one or two months ago.
