I would do anything to get off AT&T at this point. THere's no way I'm renewing the contract that's for sure. It's just terrible. Shows full bars, but tehre's no internet, no txt messages. As of the time of this writing my phone is one of the top tier phones you can buy, and it's a very thin, very light, paperweight. Manhatten coverage is just absolutely terrible for their supposed "4G" network.

In my office the iphone is useless. All it can do is send text messages (Not iMessages). incoming notifications will occasionally get through. Any data usage is pretty much nonexistent. If I restart my phone, I get a small window of about 5 minutes where I can suddenly download data or take any sort of advantage of 3G network. Then it goes back to showing full bars, but not working. ATT has become awful in the past year. Completely unreliable. I've checked with others I know in the area, and they have the exact same thing. We are basically paying for nothing. Outside the building is basically the same, very poor data.

No 4G reception on the 6th floor. If I manually switch to CDMA I get full 3G reception, but phone won't auto switch.

Strong 4G LTE signal in subway 4, 5, 6 stop.

No reception in N, R, Q station.

1, 2, 3 train station: barely usable 1g signal. Can send / receive texts, but no data.

Zero signal in subway station (4, 5, 6).

Strong 4G LTE signal- even inside elevator. Works very well.

No service in building on West 86th street. Phone network changes to At&t, even though I pay for T-Mobile service. I always drop calls especially before entering the one train. Awful service.

In the heart of Times Square. I get absolutely no 3G service even though iPad is showing 4-5 bars. It worked okay (but not great) up until about a monh ago. Then it just went dark in early Dec. No service whatsoever. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Absolutely useless. Absolutely pathetic for AT&T to. Of have service in Times Square, New York City. Anyone wanna trade a Verizon iPad for an AT&T iPad?

No calls received, no texts coming in or going out unless I switch my network to Edge. Doesn't make sense I can't use my phone in the heart of Times Square.

Awful reception in this building and downtown area as a whole. Funny thing is within the office I can receive and make calls + SMS, but data is very slow. In the halls of the bldg though, calls drop and SMS's do not come in at all. Outside the bldg on Church St., no data comes thru even at full bars!

AT&T reception is HORRIBLE! I dont understand this is the middle of a MAJOR city..on the top floor a building! I I got service in the subway UNDERGROUND in Chicago... I can't wait to switch to Verizon. This is so sad, shame on you AT&T :*(

AT&T has proven to be a very disappointing phone service. I cannot call within my room, and I am forced to go outside in the freezing cold, just to even make 10 second calls. The service is terrible. Recently, I went outside to make a call. The phone said I had four bars, but my call was dropped four times. By far the worst phone service out there, I will be switching to Verizon come January.

I just want to say to everyone complaining about not having ATT service close to places of interest (especially the fool by the naturally history museum) thinking you'll have better service at a place where there are always a lot of people is highly misguided. The more people in an area, the higher the load on the network and the worse the reception.

Phone will show varying number of bars, but calls and data remain spotty. Takes FOREVER to load emails; calls cut out often. Service becomes better after going north.

New iPhone 4s with four bars 3G and the data service is useless during weekdays. We arrived on Sunday and ATT's data service was great, more than 5 Mbps download speed. This morning it came to a screeching halt, even with 4-5 bars showing. Who are these people, charging $25 / mo for cellular data service that sucks this badly!

I have 4s. have full bars and yet cant access the internet or stream music. there's no point in having a phone.

Can anybody tell me if the 4s is any better in mid-town. I noticed that it claims to use two anttenas for better receptions -is that true? I HATE at&t

I may have 4 bars but service is schetchy. Just got off the phone with a rep who told me there are 4 cell towers out, and they've been out since yesterday. The real kicker is with their new contract agreement, they don't give credits for lack of service anymore. Imagine that, they're in business to provide service, yet they can get away with not providing service. What a joke!
