At&t is horrible! I can't use it in my house or office and I drop calls on Ashworth Road. I got an iphone and went back three days later because the service was sooo bad and they said " Oh yeah, AT&T sucks in Des Moines." FYI... AT&T put repeaters in all of the Apple stores before the iphone came out to insure that the phones would have good service in the store but onces you got out you are SCREWED!

Iwireless is the provider, but it wasn't listed as a choice. I have no reception in the house, but 3 bars just by sticking the phone outside through an open window. Not sure if we will renew our contract or not. The phone used to get reception in the house. I am currently trying new phones, with no better results. Visitors seem to have no problem getting a signal in our home.
