I've been an AT&T customer for over 3 days - I can't hold one call for God's sake. What in the world is AT&T thinking - I'll switch back to "stupid T-Mobile" at least they have good reception in the DC area.

Live in the Woodner building with a large window facing a 3 walled courtyard that opens up into Rock Creek Park. Can't even hold a call with my face to the glass. I have found one 2 ft. radius when I have between 1 and 2 bars within my apartment. Other than that, my battery gets eaten up and I don't receive calls or texts in my home. Sucks. I'm in yuppieville in a major city, not living in a basement or something, and can't hold a phone call in my home. Verizon iPhone, you win.

AT&T is lucky they had the iphone for so long. I am switching the first chance I can to either Sprint or Verizon. Never thought I would change, but 3G service is so unreliable that it has become a liability to have my phone due to dropped calls and no calls coming in. Terrible, do not get AT&T if you are looking for new service

On the 4th floor of a newer bldg, home to big law firm and many wealthy people reside on upper floors. The ONLY place I can get a consistent signal is next to a wall of glass at the outside edge of the building. Of course, I work about 30-40 feet away from that wall, so I get virtually no signal all day. I know, I know, the building needs to install repeaters or passive antennas to bring the signal in. But I never had that problem with my Verizon phone in 2007-2008, except when I worked in the basement of a building.

No reception on 1st floor of Lauinger Library in the Gelardin New Media Center

I have called Cingular support over and over again over the last several years to complain about the poor reception. It just gets worse. Zero bars, No Service even if I hang out the window. Drops just about every call. There are towers just 0.6 or a mile away just about 6 or 7 blocks. They do NOTHING. Seems with all the embassys around there should be better service here in Glover Park NW DC. I might mention that service at the intersection of Wisconcin and Calvert St. NW DC has improved but that is it. Calvert and Tunlaw forget it. Calvert street west of Tunlaw is HORRIBLE.

I live in a townhouse around 13th and U St. and I get no reception in my house. zero bars! if I lean against window in specific room of the house I can have brief conversations before the call drops. it's totally ridiculous one of the two major cell phone service providers can't provide service in the heart of a major metropolitan area. it's not like i'm in idaho here, service in my house shouldn't be too much to ask. my roomates have verzion and get good reception everywhere, even in metro. Cingular blows.

Hmm, I'm betting the prior poster lives in my apartment building. I too have a Cingular RazR and get absolutely no recedption in my apartment. Cingular will not waive the early termination fee, even though I have no reception whatsoever, because it's "my problem" that my building has no reception. Mind you, Verizon and T-Mobile phones both get full service in my building. It is very frustrating - it's one thing to be told that you can't get out of a contract because you've moved to the middle of nowhere. But moving within a major metropolitan area to another apartment in the same area? And still being told it's your "problem"? It's reprehensible.

The dead zone of dead zones. I guess with the abundance of foliage it completely blocks tower signals along the stretch between I-295 and Branch Avenue.

I get no service here, in the metro, nor in most of hte buildings I go in. I travel around DC as part of my job and Cingular service is awful.
