AT&T

Ranges 2 to 4 bars, but I have never had a dropped call in two years with the iPhone in this area.

Often there are no bars in or out of the house, but reception is better outside. I have never seen more than two VERY short bars in this area (Frenchman's Creek, adjacent to the fields of Nurseryman's Exchange), and I find those only by waving the phone in a figure-8 motion. Most calls longer than a minute are dropped repeatedly. My misery is compounded by AT&T's pathetically smug, incompetent, and occasionally rude customer service that keeps people like me jumping through phantom hoops trying to remember which bank refinanced my wife's home in 1979, two years before I met her--a service that also demands, repeatedly, that I produce her death certificate before they set up a family plan that requires corrections at least twice a month. I love my iPhone; I hate AT&T. The reception here rates not a D- but an F+.

Only get 1 bar in my home with my new Metro service. Was usually 3-4 bars with my old Sprint. Unlimited plan (Metro) is good but reception in the hills of Pacifica is POOR. I regret it and now it's too late to return the phone.

My wife and son have ATT. They have to move to different parts of the house to carry a conversation. I just sit at my sofa with my Sprint phone and a smug smile never losing any volume. Pisses them off. My wife is changing to Sprint.

Terrible coverage. Making and receiving calls is always a struggle. AT&T told me new tower being added on 11 / 28 / 10. My friend thinks San Carlos being located in a valley contributes to bad reception.

No service inside ever. No Sprint service outside and on rare occasions the phone might be able to roam. My brother has Verizon and he has OK service inside and no problems outside.

Every call drops. This is becoming worse and worse. Only one bar

2 bars - and calls drop with the Fatal No Service. There is a tower at 1835 Lewelling Bl but it doesn't use AT&T

The sound quality on metro PCS can be poor. However, I rarely have the problem of not being able to make calls. I do have some breaking up and dropping frequently, but thats acceptable, because I can just hang up and call back. Long story short I'm thankful to always be able to make calls. Metro PCS is good for the money you pay, thinking of switching to the Blackberry for Boost so I can get 3g. (It runs on sprint.)

Considering I live on top of a hill with commanding views of the city, I am shocked by the poor reception on the VZW network. Oddly it's data that suffers the worst up here. It's not uncommon for me to have 4-5 bars, but only 1x and no 3G. What gives? What truly hurts is that I can see a Nextel site 500ft from my window.
