Poor reception in my apartment in Coolidge Corner. Need to go out to the balcony to guarantee reception and even there it drops occasionally.

AT&T iphone 3GS reception on Boston College main campus is terrible. It often can't find any cellular signal at all. I've sometimes used Skype on the internet instead of using the cell phone minutes I pay for, because of the reception. In coolidge corner area, calls drop constantly. Anytime phone call over ~5 minutes and it's pretty usual that the call will drop.

Have called AT&T for 3-4 weeks now; they don't seem to be able to improve my service. I have poor-to-no reception inside the apt.; maybe 0-2 bars; we get "no signal" and sometimes "emergency calls only"; any calls that do come through get dropped after a few minutes. AT&T told me that my phone was old and should be checked. They also told me that that they have had no complaints from Brookline 02445 area. Now, I know better! They charged me $30 for a new phone (got a rebate) because it doesn't get a better signal. Any calls to or from my Brookline area - voices are garbled and echoey. Calls to / from anywhere else are crystal clear. Am ready to leave AT&T - I'm just not paying for service that I can't use at home.

Horrible service on AT&T. I get no service in my house (garden level), but my husband can talk on his Verizon phone, anywhere in the house, including the basement.

I cannot rely on getting calls at all. Sometimes it rings, but cannot receive or talk. Right now there is "No network coverage" I don't know if a GSM repeater would work here. If it would that would be great!

Most of the time, I don't get any signal on Verndale Street. Sometimes 1 bar... Even if I had signal in a lot of US cities (5 bars all the center of Boston) and almost all Europe, I have to switch...

I have always had great luck with Verizon outside of Brookline. Ever since I moved here I've had nothing but problems and it's driving me crazy. I'm probably getting rid of Verizon soon but I just wanted to share the terrible reception I've had here on Goddard Ave. Anyone else?

Varies between 2 and 4 bars. I called ATT several years ago. They said I may have interference from satellite TV dishes.

Just got an iPhone this afternoon, and will be returning it in the morning. No 3G reception at all. EDGE fluctuated between no signal and one bar. The phone could not place a call.

AT&T must have added a tower since 2006. I've got 5 bars now.

What a piece of crap. Outside 2-3 bars. In my apartment I get 2-3 bars when I am not holding my phone. Usually it rings, I pick it up, then it goes dead!

I never have any problems with reception indoors or outdoors. In fact, I was camping in Maine this past weekend and I got service there too. In every room of my two bedroom apt people can hear me fine.

Very bad reception outside, and inside, none except in one room in the front, and it's bad there. Surprising that in such a nice location / big square in Brookline there is not much coverage.

Phone is useless indoors. If it connects it is only a matter of seconds before the call is dropped. I have 1 or 2 Cingular bars (then it drops them and turns to 5 'gray' bars (T-Mobile signal for emergency calls)). I wish I had T-Mobile!
