AT&T Wireless (GSM) 1 Out of 5	Damonte / Double Diamond, Reno, NV 89511	Sun Feb 13, 2005
AT&T Wireless (GSM) 1 Out of 5	Just one single bar at home and three out of the three cell phones I have none works, it drops the signal after a few seconds of comunication. I can't stand this guys, in top of that the billing they send is wrong with more than $100 dollars of overcharges. The signal, billing and customer service all suck big time and I'm very angry with this AT&T / Cingular companies I'll have to pay the early termination fees just to get rid of these crooks and maybe I can sue them later. Avoid AT&T / Cingular wireless contracts, you will regret it if not!
