Me and the wife both have iPhone 3g's. They are Totally unusable in the house,like being on the moon or something! Kinda Pisses me off actually. Phones are great mostly everywhere else. WTF!

ATT's 3G network is perfect in this area. But Edge is bad, about 1 or 2 bars in this area.

Bad reception, poor call quality and some dropped calls. ATT signal is very bad in this area

No problems unless in a "newer basement". strange I know but this is my experience. I live in a 1972 home in the basement and NEVER have any problems. I switched FROM Verizon for this reason.

I never could use my phon in this area. Cingular network here is very bad.

Typically, I get two bars, within my home, south of 7 Mile, East of Beech. There is a fairly new tower, in the park, along Pickford, by my receiption sucks. I have to stand outside to get any reception, which isn't always practical. My boyfriend has a different model of Samsung, also through Cingular, and just traded a Nokia in, for that one... his reception sucks. My brother has a Samsung, though T-Mobile and also can't get reception within my house.

I got unlucky and moved into a house where the reception for Cingular is completely unacceptable. There seems to be a dead spot in this area, and I live smack dab in the middle of it. I am now stuck in a contract with a phone that I cannot even use.

With a perfect signal, I get terrible voice reception. My calls, whether placed or recieved seem to be scrambled. There are at least a dozen people on our floor that have terrible service. If you are downtown and are either ATT or Cingular, you're gambling with your calls. Cingular has shown little to no concern in my numerous efforts to get this resolved. They would rather charge me hundreds of dollars and move me from ATT to Cingular to see if this resolves the problem. Looks like after many years of being a happy ATT customer, I'm headed to Verizon!

My reception changed within the last 18 months. I am now appearing in a section that only gets Fair reception: 3 bars on a good day. Cannot use the phone in my home without dropping signal. Sometimes up to 3 - 4 times per conversation. You can watch the signal vary between 3 bars and roaming. Sprint sent a modem booster that has to be installed through my cable modem. Didn't work. I give up. Changing services.

I suffered with very poor reception for a couple of years at this location using my Motorola flip phone. Dropouts occurred so often I avoided using it. When I got a Sanyo phone dropouts were eliminated. Lesson? Same service, different brand / model phones have VERY DIFFERENT performance!
