15th St. / 5th Ave. intersection, New York, NY 10011
Wed Sep 30, 2009
No reception at all for voice calling on the 3rd floor of 10 W. 15th Street. EDGE (data) requests succeed sporadically, but definitely are not instantaneous. My other cellphone is a Motorola RAZR on the T-Mobile network. It gets 5 bars in the exact same location as my Blackberry 8310 on the AT&T network. Friends with iPhones (on AT&T) were unable to place or receive phone calls or texts from my apartment. There is definitely an AT&T dead zone where I live.
Rt. 22 / Rt. 22 All the Way From Mass Pike To Route 7 Hoosi intersection, Hoosick, NY 12089

Tmobile gets absolutely no network from the exit on mass pike B3 all the way up to RT 7 Hoosick falls ny. God forbid you break down on that 30 mile stretch.
As of late, AT&T cell coverage has become terrible. E.g. long delays in transmitting text messages, dropped calls, loss of service. I'm curious if this is a homeland security issue in Manhattan affecting all carriers or if AT&T is just farming out its duties to subcontractors.
Horrible reception. 1 bar to 4 bars to none. Try making a call from my home or even my yard and the screen will black out. I called Sprint and they tell me I am in one of those 1 mile "dead zones" yet they want to keep me as a customer. The funny thing is, about a year and a half ago, I could make calls and receive them in certain areas of the house. They have pulled bandwidth from this area, and yet will only not bill be for 1 / 2 month, when this has been going on for over a year! I'm switching service IMMEDIATELY as soon as I can find one that works in the area. But inevitably, they are ALL doing the same thing to everyone. Probably the only one not doing it is Verizon, and that is most likely because everyone else is using Verizon's lines and they are all just leeches on Verizon's system, also known as RESELLERS! They have less space on their routers and have to keep re-routing in order to maintain space on those routers and various customers get screwed in the process.
