Out of 12 attempts to call on this GSM service I might connect 3 times, and then it is garbled.

No reception in the area between Marina and San City on Hwy 1. Very weak signal in Marina and Ft Ord area. I have to use a large external antenna (Range Star) this reduce the number of dropped called in Maria but still very weak. Stronger reception in the Monterey area except Pacific Grove near the beach / light house area.

I do not get AT&T service if you live in Noe Valley. I don't get Cingular either for that matter. I've gone through both services in the last week and have had to return my phone twice because of non-existant service. If I tried to call my land line the call would drop before the answering machine picked up about 75% of the time. I just got Verizon service today and I have maximum reception. The customer service rep told me that they have a tower at my intersection. AT&T told me the TDMA service would work better and they're probably right, but you're better off going Verizon for Noe Valley in my opinion. Apparently, Noe Valley voted against a measure to add cell-phone towers a little while back. So, it's not so much that AT&T and Cingular are completely incompetent (although they may still be) -- just that they're unable to actually put a tower in Noe Valley.

There is no reception at all in Guerneville. Forestville, just down the road, has a little bit of coverage - 1 bar, sometimes switching to analog - but nothing at all in Guerneville, despite the number of vacation homes and resorts here. As soon as I can get out of my contract I'm gone.

Verizon sucks the phone switches from digital to analog and it kills my battery. Customer in the area think that they have great service but the truth is when the phone switches to analog people can hear your convesation and you're not secure. You have no privacy. At least T-Mobile and Cingular don't use analog. You should do research before signing a contract on all the company and don't be afraid to ask questions, seriously.

Terrible reception, must stand out in the front driveway to make a call. Only time I get reception inside the house is on a clear sunny day, and at most just 1 bar. Phone to phone SMS is bad up here as well and email to SMS is completely unreliable and useless. Metro phones up here will discharge their battery supply in under 1 hour due to constantly searching for the local digital cell site.

Both my boyfriend and I have Cingular and we get absolutely ZERO reception in the area. The best it can do is a bar in Running Springs or Big Bear. We are planning to get a tri-mode cell phone with Verizon so that we can communicate with our friends when we go to our cabin there.

Nextel sucks! At time it will show 2 bars, but then after 15 seconds drop to none. It cycles, most of the time can't hear the other side, and it drops a lot.
