ATT GSM on a Treo 600 reception has continous dropouts from Foothill Dr.and all along I-215 on the east side of the valley. Also using a Nokia, the service is bad in the same areas.

Can't use the phone in my bedroom it goes to exteneded network, walk into my living room and get about 3 bars. I have found that Verizon is very spotty in the SLC area, if I go up to Primary Childrens Hospital I cannot get any signal and am in roam... not a very good area for Verizon.. Thankfully my contract is up and can go to another carrier

I have been extremely happy with my ATT tdma service throughout Utah, but I switched to GSM because I wanted a cooler phone... I can't believe any one would be happy with ATT / Cingular's GSM service, it was very choppy, with dropped calls or no service intermittently everywhere as I drove around, so I took the cool new phone back and I switched back to my old phone and back to the great coverage of TDMA. I like my service, and rates with the good old TDMA.

AT&T GSM on my Treo 600 has been a huge frustration and disappointment. It holds the signal just fine - I rarely drop a call - but the voice signal fades in and out, making normal conversation impossible. All the while, the phone shows a full-strength signal. The phone and coverage seem great in other US cities, where I get land-line quality. But in SLC, they've really missed the boat somehow, and the coverage for voice calls is horrendous. I'm swiching carriers.

AT&T GSM used to work OK in area, but now it is awful. They are having major problems with TDMA to GSM switchover.

I have the nation plan with cingular. My sim card is older then other sim cards, so I never see "Cingular Extend" I always see who is giveing me service. When I first moved here June 2003 my phone would first goto AT&T then reliezed thier was no reception, and go over to T-Mobile tower. Since the merger talk happen, and the buy out been getting closer, the AT&T has went from no reception to 3 out of 5 reception.

So bad! Verizon has always been the best and I have had everything from AT&T to Qwest to Sprint and there is nothing better than Verizon's coverage in the US (except for right here!).

Coverage for both GSM and Digital network with ATT is poor here. GSM not viable had to switch back to Digital after purchasing GSM phone. ATT is the poorest example of commitment to customer service experienced in the last 3 years. Repeated attempts to resolve a billing issue result in slow responses and ineffective trouble-shooting. Its all about ATT not you!

Poor reception in buildings, very little reception in canyons. AT&T seems to have better coverage.

Moved to SLC on a Cinglular Nation TDMA plan. Even though Cingular does not have direct support here I am receiving Extended Service (probably through AT&T.) It is a hit and miss. Most of the time I have no issues out and about Metro SLC. I am however in an Extended Network and sometimes I don't get incoming calls but rather just a voicemail alert. Reception is also a hit or miss depending on if you dial another TDMA network or not. Reception can be poor at times inside a building in the SLC airport area. Shadow / roaming zones up I-80 near Magna between SLC International in Toole and up I-15 in North Davis / South Weber. Poor / No coverage in the Weber Canyon recreational areas. Will be researching local alternatives once contract expires for a better consistant service.

Pretty happy with reception. There are a few dead spots in the Sugarhouse area. But as a whole I get good coverage. Do get reception on the slopes in Brighton and Snowbird. Coverage has expanded a lot since I orgionally signed up a year an a half ago.

Very poor reception in this area. Can only talk from a few exact spots in the house and often have to stand in the middle of the road to make a phone call. Will probably switch this next month when my contract runs out.

Very poor reception (0-1 bar) 3 blocks in any direction from my house. Mounting a car antenna outside my home window raised reception from 0-1 bar to 2-3. Not a great solution, since I have to plug the antenna in, and stand within 2 ft. of window (cord length) to use my phone in my house. Friend's Motorola doesn't work here either, so I don't think it's my outdated phone. Called AT&T, but since they are pushing GSM, they told me that work on improving the TDMA infrastructure will no longer be performed.

I've tried Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile and Cricket in the Salt Lake Valley, and must say that Verizon has the most reliable service from the ones I've tried. I have no dropped calls and get great service nearly everywhere I go. I'd strongly recomend Verizon in the Salt Lake Valley (they actually have the largest Digital Network in Utah)

This GSM is horrible. I've never had so many missed calls or problems sending or recieving text messages. I would say it's not all over the whole valley, apparently only the places I go.

Generally good coverage across Salt Lake valley but deadspots on I-215 about 1/2 mile east or west from I-15 interchange. Drops calls regularly when driving through that area.
