Horrible reception inside my house. Ironically, my roomate has the exact same model phone, but in T-Mobile (I think, maybe it was Verizon) - and they have perfect service. Works outside okay, but even then my calls get dropped every now and then.

I never get good reception in our house. This house is so cold and has no insulation so I highly doubt it's the thickness of the walls!

Almost no problems. Occasional drops calls in local area, but could just be the phone being funny. it likes to do that.

we get zero reception in and around our house and barely better reception in surrounding areas - according to Cingular it's because we live in an old house with thick walls... i suppose that's why our friends with Verizon have no problems and our phones don't even work OUTSIDE the walls of our house?!?!?

Dreadful reception has got even worse recently in this area, I think because the AT&T GSM towers have started automatically handing off to the Cingular (310410) tower which is totally unreliable here. The phone rings, I answer it, and the call gets dropped. Or else we get to talk, but I get an audio dropout every 30 seconds or so and have to ask the other person to repeat what they're saying. It's a joke. My phone gets great reception in other areas, including San Francisco even with all the hills there. I live on top of a hill in the most densely populated city in New England (Somerville, that is)! You would expect Cingular to want to sell plans and / or have happy customers here of all places, but apparently not. I suggest you go with T-Mobile instead, with whom I used to have excellent reception before I foolishly switched.

Sometime in the last couple of weeks the reception disappeared. Used to be barely okay, but now my calls are reliably dropped within minutes. Very poor service.

Absolutely horrible reception in this area down through Union Square. I have difficulty getting any signal, and when I do, the call quality is horrible, and more times than not the call gets dropped or I have to hang up because the reception's so bad. Cingular doesn't seem to think this is a problem.
