Never drops a call in Indianapolis EXCEPT at the Indianapolis Museum of Art, where getting a signal is a crap shoot. Move 6 feet to the left, or go up or down a floor, or find a window, who knows?
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.
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 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.
