Recently switched from AT&T and the service is much better. Verizon is the same price as AT&T but the service is much much better. 3G is fast and service is very reliable. The last hurricane that came thru, my friends Verizon phone was the only thing that worked. We love it!

Long known to be a dead spot full of people, even much before Katrina, and still pretty bad. However, I think it's gotten better lately. I can now drive through that intersection without losing my signal entirely.

Reception here's gotten MUCH better. Still some busy signals around 5-6pm when everybody's driving around, but much better than it was.

You weak whiners; get a clue! If I were to invest millions of $ in transmission / repeater towers, why would I invest in a severely flood-prone area? That seems irresponsible, expensive, and counterproductive. Solution: Move to a place with more towers and better coverage (... and I'll bet you suffer less storm damage and pay less on insurance).

I've had a AT&T / Cingular GSM (Moto V600) phone for over a year. Reception is spotty all over the New Orleans metro area, with lots of dead areas. Reception is good in the outer office / upper floors of my high-rise office, but disappears when you move to an interior hallway. Reception is poor if you're inside your home in the suburbs. I live in Terrytown, just across the river from downtown N.O., and I cannot send or receive a call without walking outside to the street. Everyone at the office has had the same trouble. My family signed up for a Cingular GSM account 1.5 years ago; nothing but complaints, regardless of phone type. I talked to a fellow from out of town today who was complaining about how poor Cingular service is in the N.O. area. Bottom line -- DO NOT sign up for Cingular GSM in New Orleans. A number of people at the office have dumped Cingular for Verizon, with good results.

No reception at all at home downtown! My old walmart tracfone actually has better reception. I've called Cingular repeatedly and they replace the antenna on my phone or tell me they're adding more towers or some other nonsense that doesn't help at all. You can't use your plan's minutes anyway with such poor reception. Might as well get a prepaid tracfone- I would have saved $400 this year. (and no I don't work for tracfone, I'm just really! unhappy with cingular)

I get 2 to 3 bars at Tulane Medical School, and can only call from the side of the building closest to Tulane Ave. At Audubon Park, coverage is usually 3 to 4 bars, but I get more dropped calls, it seems like.

TDMA works great all over southeast Louisiana and south Mississippi and has reliable to excellent service in every city/airport around the country as well as on all the highways and interstates even off in the country it works pretty well. the point is, if you must travel for work, and not always in major cities, then stick with TDMA , GSM is not reliable yet and you will miss important calls due to gaps in coverage

constantly dropping calls. wildly fluctuating signal strength. unable to make a call in any large buildings like walmart, office depot, etc... i first got a replacement T616 thinking it was the phone... it was not. the service is terrible and an honest sales rep will admit it.

Always have reception. Except in WalMart. Other than that it depends on the phone I think. My husband has cingular, and he always misses or drops my calls.

My home has thick brick walls leading to very poor reception inside. Outside it's only a little better, with problems like dropping calls when you turn your head. The only good thing about the old 2G is that the Edge data reception is very reliable: it's not fast but I always have it, sometimes even when there's no voice.

It varies from no reception to some reception and frequently dropped calls. Unbelievably bad. Can't wait to break up with AT&T and start with another provider. Anything has to be better.

Am I the only one who is not getting ANY SERVICE for my At&T iphone? Ever since Jazz Fest started service has been poor, but since late afternoon Sunday there has literally been NO SERVICE AT ALL from At&T wireless.

Jefferson Ave. / Prytania, New Orleans, LA 70115 Fri Jan 30, 2009

I get great reception all around town except in my second floor apartment. If a call goes through, it is sure to be dropped. I wonder whether a different phone would help?
