Brooklyn Battery Tunnel / West St. intersection, New York, NY 10001
Fri Feb 20, 2009
When going into the BBT from Manhattan to Brooklyn the first 3rd of the tunnel has no reception. Halfway to Brooklyn it jumps to 5 Bars. Same going the other way. I switched from Verizon to AT&T, there is more dropped calls when driving.

Nearly every call is lost within seconds. Phone shows maximum bars for signal strength, but there seem to be too few circuits to actually handle a call when it comes in or goes out and then the phone searches for and switches to a tower too far away. Result: the call is dropped. Same thing happens to others in this area. "Can you hear me now?"... (silence)...

I cant believe Nextel is still in this business... When I get a call, it drops.. I cant recall getting a call that didnt drop.. and push to talk is getting worse and worse, I guess they are overloading circuits because I get busy all the time.. My friend that just got Cingular service is raving about it.. Freaking 2-year contract..
I have no luck with my service in my apt. AT&T won't help me - and I don't know what to do. They suck. I got a Siemens phone yesterday and it won't work in my apt either. So it has to be AT&T.

Basically along 12th street from Bdwy to 5th T-Mobile has horrible service. No service in restaurants or apts and a hard time repicking up the network.
3rd Ave. / 17th St. intersection, New York, NY 10003

OK reception on street but no reception in my apt. After several calls to 611 I got to "Level 2" and after 72 hour delay got to "Advance Tech" but still no reception in my apt 17 st and 3rd. Reason they gave: "No budget for new tower."
