I live in Stallion Mountain. I first had a Blackberry and it dropped calls All The Time! ATT said I needed to get a newer phone ( my Blackberry was in perfect condition, however.). So I bought thus HTC Droid type phone and even though its a fun phone, I get only ONE bar in my house! I had the same crappy reception when I lived over on the corner of Green Valley and Sunset. ATT sucks in a big way. I want to take a sledge hammer to my phone.

Sound reception on phone has Static (crackling sound) -- intensity varies with changes in location. Person on other end of call (e.g., landline) has good reception.

I've been a customer of AT&T for several years but have recently been experiencing multiple dropped calls per day (50%+). Purchased the AT&T suggested solution device (Micro Cell) which resulted in zero improvement. Submitted numerous complaints through costumer service yet nothing has been done other than acknowledging the reports I've submitted. I'm a customer with a family plan with 3 lines paying them nearly $200.00 a month. They don't seem to care about their customers even at that level. We should push for registration that protects the consumer to the extent that if you only receive 50% of the service you signed up for, you should only be bill for that percentage of service that you receive. They know what that is already. Let's unite.

I notice other people have posted the same thing. Got decent reception up until about the beginning of July 2010. Went to AT&T store to complain. Their only solution was to buy a new phone and lock in another 2 year contract. I felt pretty scammed. Can AT&T really charge people or lock them into a contract but not provide a service? Sounds like a scam or fraud to me.

had AT&T and 1st generation iphone for a a few years. almost NEVER worked in my home and often not even outside my home. I grew tired of standing in the 110 degree garage to make a phone call. in most other parts of vegas AT&T was simply "ok" - the edge network blows. my friend has a 3g iphone and gets better voice coverage for some reason. AT&T was too pricey - I am leaving them for good. bye

I have had ATT for years with Good to Decent service. Since the beginning of july 2010, Something has happened to a tower near my home at DI and Ft Apache. I can barely understand what people are saying and they can barely understand me. I actually now get in my car and drive down the street 1-2 miles to make somewhat important calls anymore. ATT customer service states there is a degraded tower at Pioneer and Desert Inn with no for sure date to fix it. ATT customer service could hardly understand me and credited my account for 2 months. Thanks, thats great. I still cant comunicate successfully anywhere near my house. Go Figure, Is it worth it. Im switching service immediately.

Have AT&T 3+ years... only lately constant audio breaks during conversations on both my phones. Just bought new I phone hoping that would fix it, same thing. Co. has no explanation or ETA for remedy. Bars look good 4-5 but sound quality very poor. Anyone else having this trouble in my area?

Does not matter how I hold the Iphone 4 I get dropped calls, the phone goes directly to VM without ringing. The orig Iphone had much better signal.

I hate AT&T! Switched from Verizon to get the iPhone. The iPhone is the greatest thing ever made! But AT&Ts service makes me want to throw it against a wall!

Horrible service with AT&T. Dropped calls, poor call quality, etc. Trying out Verizon and love it. Will be porting my number over tomorrow.

Never drop calls and always have full reception on either internet or voice! They really are the best one to choose in this area!

Had Verizon and always got server busy messages. Have had AT&T 6 months and no problems. My family had switched years ago and have had no problems. Should of researched sooner so I wouldn't of wasted all my money on Verizon for no bars! AT&T is much better!

-113dBm standing OUTSIDE here, absolutely horrible - don't try to make calls inside. Barely any reception at Bermuda and Silverado ranch either where T-Mobile is registering -60dBm! However there is one spot where reception is good and that's at my home in Southern Highlands where T-Mo is marginal at best. Otherwise T-Mobile has far more coverage in southern Las Vegas and probably in other parts.

Never had a problem with ATT at this area of town, get good reception at Jean Lakebed too.

Lived in this area for just over four years. Have had Verizon, poor, T-mobile, poor and for the past year an AT&T iPhone 3G. Very poor reception. Needless to say, the iPhone really is only good for data via my home Wi-Fi set up.

Lousy freaking reception because AT&T is too cheap to put up more Cell Towers in the neighborhood. We call this area "The Dead Zone" because your AT&T phone is worthless!

Unlike some places I have gone or lived in Las Vegas, the reception in the house actually works with seldom a dropped call. Unfortunate that ATT does not work in the rampart casino. Sprint seems to be the only carrier that works in the bowels of the casino. Otherwise I like ATT. Resonable coverage and does not pull features from the phones like most of the other carriers (except the iPhone - BOO ATT)

reception is spotty and can drop out without warning in about a 1 mile radius to this intersection.

Signal drops and breaks up when at Decatur North of Blue Diamond

best bars all the time dont get T-Mobile they get 2 bars in my house

When we first moved to this newly developing area my phone had fine service but my husband's did not. Now that we have AT&T neither one of us gets more than one bar in the house. If we go outside we can use our phones but what a pain in the butt! I wish I knew if anyone else was any better...

Wow, after service with Verizon and getting absolutely no reception in my house inside or outside I switched to ATT, great coverage, always a signal and best of all no dropped calls!

Reception bars are a complete lie.. AT&T has major problem with GSM network. Most locations in valley have the problem that signal strength is 5 bars with intermittent (about every 1-2 minutes) the strength goes to 0. Drops call when this happens. It is ironic that they have the nerve to advertise the fewest dropped calls.. Ran into the same experience in 84032 zip (Northern Utah). However, Manhatten coverage seems to be good. For Vegas, do yourself a favor and go with T-Mobile or Verizon

We have tried Sprint, Verizon, Nextel, and now Cingular here at the base of Frenchman Mountain... they all suck. My theory is that the mountain disrupts the signals, since there are at least 5 line of sight towers in the area. Cingular / AT&T seems to be the least of the 4 evils... they are just better at keeping a death grip on the call, so you end up with lots of dead air for periods, instead of outright hangups. If you look at your reception, it will bounce from 5 bars to 1 to 2 back to 5 back to 2 all day long... I'm not sure if a repeater would even help.

Been with AT&T for 20 yrs. Moved to Edna and Jones... bars go up and down like a stereo. AT&T service said "get a new phone!". Last 6 months: my original 6680 + (2)Nokia 6682, (1)Pearl and (1)BlackJack. Same thing. Dr.to L.A. get "Emergency Service Only" for about 40% of the trip. I typically use about 1800 mins / mo. nationwide. Outside Las Vegas... not as bad.

Came from Texas with Sprint. They let me out of my contract (6 months in) because they could not make it work. Switched to Cingular. It worked a little better for about a month then went to hell and is pretty much useless. So far 8 of my friends have gotten AT&T to allow them to cancel without termination fees. Apparently at least Sprint and AT&T know their service in Las Vegas is very spotted. Note: I dealt with both companies tech support and went thru their process to get my area (residence) checkout. Once they confirm it is bad they will drop you termination fee and allow you to switch

as a realtor I am often on the phone with clients and my reception would get cut off so frequently that I feel like an idiot. I noticed a few months ago there is a cell tower just east of blue diamond on durango, and I was estactic but my reception has not improved any. does anyone know if and when (unless it is already) it will be activated? any info would be appreciated. for the second best selling master plan in AMERICA, it is quite sad. btw, the zip is actually 89178 but the system does not recognize it for me to post so I had to change it to another one.

Just got the new BB Curve and I get between 3 and 4 bars deep in Southern Highlands. I'm the one that wrote the review for Verizon in the same location...

Can't make or recieve call at or around my house. My wife either. Service has never been good. I just can't wait till 6 / 14 / 07 till my contract is up and I can go to Verizon...

Cingular has good service throughout the Las Vegas Valley area. Newer areas of development may have fewer towers and / or weaker / non-existent service.

i luv my Cingular phone I have traveled around the world and across the u.s. and have NEVER had a problem with it. they have great customer care and all the reviews on here are from people who buy cheap phones. p.s. 9 out of 10 times its your phone, not the carrier. so quit bad mouthing my baby. (raising the bar!)

The Cingular reception on my phone is usually pretty good. 4 out of 5 bars inside my apartment (2nd floor). A few dropped calls from time to time, but not any more than what I have experienced with other carriers.

I've gad Cingiular for a couple of years now, never drop a call. Switched from Sprint, who coined the phrase "Dropped call". Ever since the move, life with a Cell phone has been GREAT. SAME Phone model too.

I get great reception at my home, but don't use it while driving or at businesses and restaurants.

Drops about 70-80% of all calls, even though it usually claims 4-5 bars of reception. Calls are filled with static, and I find myself asking people to repeat themselves four or five times in a ten minute call. Sometimes I get a "no service" message, sometimes I see bars but when I try to call out, I get dead air. It's just as bad in downtown, too.

Come on Cingular, MORE BARS! You drop 3 out of 5 calls on me and that's on a good day. How about a few more towers?

Phone only works maybe 1 out 5 times and when it does I drop the call almost immediately.

I moved to the area about 5 months ago, and have had no problems with reception with my 2 year old V600. It ranges from 2-4 bars out of 5 all the time, and that's indoors. We'll see how my next phone (Treo 650) does.

Have to go upstairs to get any reception at all and then it drops calls

If I'm lucky, I might get one bar at my house but it comes and goes so often that phone calls are impossible. To actually use the phone I need to drive at least one mile away from my home and come down from Sunrise Mtn. In town I usually have 4 or 5 bars and can make long distance calls, usually with no problems. All in all, I don't like the service due to the fact that my phone use is limited to only those times I'm away from my home.

dismal reception in house, dismal reception in driveway, little to no reception in yard. have to leave house and go min 1 block in any direction to get 3 bar signal. sometimes phone doesn't ring at all, if it does ring EVERY call is dropped within 30 seconds. EVERY call, EVERY time. prior to getting dropped every other word cuts out. I have a Motorola Razr, My wife's Nokia is only a little better (Cingular) Ever since the AT&T merger service sucks. My friend lives around the corner, he has Verizon and also gets dropped when driving past my house. is there a service provider that doesn't suck?

I have no reception at my house. It sucks to have to go outside to receive a phone call. I also drop way more calls than I used to with T-Mobile. Oh yea... Their customer service is terrible!

Reception is intermittent; lots of dropped calls and busy signals; I carry both Verizon and Cingular phones, and the Verizon service is far better.

1 / 2 of the entire length of Odette and all of Silvagni Dr.experience very poor reception and dropped calls about 50% of the time

Cingular seems to have solid coverage throughout Las Vegas, even in the suburbs.

Cingular has good to great reception in this area, very pleased with Cingular in Las Vegas.

Since the merger with AT&T and a rollout of a new network they are working on, when they moved us from their legacy system to the 'New and Improved' system, it got worse. Dropped calls, calls rolling right into voice mail, minimal to no reception - just didn't make sense. Had them switch us back to the legacy system and it works pretty good - not great, but better then average. All carriers need to figure out how to make this work - only if the FCC wouldn't stop the technology out there from reaching the US, maybe we could have Great Service with any or all of the carriers...

I live in a nearby apt complex, and I cannot get more than 2 bars when on the property (other phone models displayed similar problems, so it's not the phone model). Once I am out on the street the reception is 5 bars, but the loss of reception at home is extremely frustrating. However, if I am able to find a truly dead zone in the apt I can get the AT&T network which offers full bar coverage, but no way to force the phone to use that network. I drive all over the valley, and when on the road there are very few places where signal will cut out or drop a call; usually out in the boonies so it's not unexpected. One other factor is if you are trying to use a phone in a supermarket parking lot. For some reason there is an increbible amount of interference (very similar to what I find at home) so pulling out of the parking lot is a must to ensure good reception.

AWESOME coverage, if used other carriers and not the same... Great Customer Service

You would have thought with two carriers (AT&T and Cingular) merging it would have provided better coverage. It appears they just bought more of the same coverage. No benefit seen here. Ego, not customer satisfaction played a big part in this merger. Fix it or lose customers.

4 months into the service and three hospital visits later I find myself wanting to run from Cingular. Ever since I went with Cingular I have had the worst service ever. This resulted into 1 major heart attack due to hypertension (High blood pressure). The second time my phone service dropped a call during a important business call. My stomach ulcer started to bleed profusely and I landed in the ER rom again. Ironically, Cingular has offered to pay for some of the medical expenses inccured since my start of the service. That must mean they know about the dangerous health effects of the service they offer. So at this point I decided to give them another chance. I was in my car on I-15 and Flamingo and I was on the phone with my divorce lawyer and we were going over the payouts for my divorce. Then the phone dropped the call. The lawyer thought I hung up on him because I didnt like the deal. Now my ex-wife has the kids, the house, the car and the dog. I'm now suffering from acute depression and now have been admitted to St. Judes Mental Health Division of Psychiatrics and Illness. THANKS CINGULAR!

In my now home calling area of Las Vegas Nevada I get perfect reception! Although when I lived in the san fernando valley (part of Los Angeles county) I received less than perfect reception, there I probably would have rated cingular a 2 "below average" due to their lack of reception around mountains and canyons.
