Excellent signal strength. AT&T works great inside the building, while all other carriers seem to be weak. Now why can't I find a carrier that works for me and my kids - in NYC and at Wayne State campus?

I just switched my service from Sprint to AT&T on Thursday. I don't have my phone yet, but anything should be better than Sprint so I'll start by rating the service as good. I had numerous dropped calls daily, I could barely use it in my house and the basement is definitely a BIG NO NO! I'm frequently downtown on the riverfront / Ren Cen area and my Sprint service picks up Canada's towers, in which I get charged for international roaming if I choose to answer my phone. My godmother has AT&T and her service is great! She can pretty much use her phone anywhere and the sound quality is good even on the riverfront. I'm hoping that I'm not gonna be disappointed with their service. I really don't think it gets much worse than Sprint / Nextel. LITERALLY!

Have complained for at least five years about weak signals, poor or no reception and static, not just my phone but on many others including neighbors and friends at this location. The problem exists throughout the City of Detroit. In cities around Detroit I don't have this problem.

For the last 2 months my Cingular coverage has been terrible for both my wife and I, especially around home but it fluctuates all over.

If you work in any of the Towers at GM's Ren Center, don't think about getting ATT Wireless. My co-workers (using Sprint) have good coverage even in the 36th floor. With my GSM ATT Wireless phone every call I place is a dropped call (if I even have service at all). I have to take the elevator to the 2nd floor if I want to use my phone during work hours.

Chronic "No Network Coverage" all over the Indian Village area, and at best two bars when it works. I am cancelling my ATT contract - as soon as I find a carrier that does not "redline" Detroit.

If you live on campus at Wayne State through your Nextel in the trash. It's useless inside and outside I might as well have 2 cans with a string attached, and that's only if I get a signal.

My Nextel phone doesn't have any reception near Dexter / Joy rd or on 7mile between Greenfield / Livernois. I have notified "Nextel" several times about this problem but nothing has been done. I like Nextel but at this rate I will be forced to switch users.
