I'm in an apt. on the second floor and get 1 or no bars for signal strength. Calls are dropped all the time. I never get text messages or VM until later that day. Terrible!
Anywhere outside reception is perfect. Inside my apartment (3rd floor) I usually get 3 to 4 bars. I only get one bar in the In the basement (underground garage); however, the reception is still clear (static free). I have been to the west-coast with the phone and have been happy with the reception pretty much everywhere. There are some zones in which there is no reception, but that holds true for any cell provider. I have tried out all cell providers (14-day free trials) and selected CINGULAR (now AT&T) as having the most clear connection with the least dropped calls (none so far). It also provides the most convenient (for me) nationwide coverage. I have had CINGULAR service for 2.5 years now and I am happy with the value and service (friendly customer service).
I do not get any signal in my ground floor apt. Even if I do, it drops in the middle of the call. I need to stand by a window to get atleast a couple of minutes. However it works pretty well when outside.
att always tells me I will get service I will get service but it has been way way to long I have frends that have verison and they make calls in my basement and ill be lucky if I get a call outside ill be lucky if I can send a text message
Just moved to Herndon from Tyson's Corner which had perfect reception. Now i'm getting the cold shoulder from friends who think i'm not responding to their texts or returning their phone calls (which I never even knew I received) :( This area sucks in my eyes. I just happen to have my computer in the basement where I use to bring my cell phone, but not anymore. Now I have to leave it in the kitchen and run upstairs to answer it. Trust me, this is better than never knowing that you had a call in the first place. I want the new iphone coming out in june, but by the looks of AT&T's service in Herndon... i'll just have to wait till apple and Verizon make a deal... Not fair :(
Drops on most all calls. No service works well here. It really sucks when you have to pay so much for the service plans and get this kinda service at home.
