It's always a surprise when we get a cell call. Most of the time it just doesn't work. If we walk around the house, and often outside, we can pick up reception for a while, before it gets dropped. Would drop the landline if we could; can't.

Cell phone is very spotty in the house. Usually I can only get reception near the windows or on the second floor, and even then it is still poor as people complain that I am garbled.

Well I was looking up ways to check for coverage because I'm looking to cancel my AT&T phone service. I'm very sad to have to do so; I have an iPhone and love it! But I can't use it at home as my calls drop daily.

Terrible reception. No real 3G at all and a couple of bars of Edge! More Cell Towers! Is it a Berkeley thing that they don't want ugly towers? Could the City / Residents be stopping it? ATT and Apple - Please do something! Or I will HAVE to SWITCH!

Wild fluctuations. Sometimes it is fine for half a day. Sometimes it will drop call after call after call. Sometimes there is no service whatsoever for a minute, and then it will be back again. AT&T says it is because towers are line of sight and the hills are a problem... except last I checked the hills don't move around like puppies in June.

I've never really had a problem with reception, ever, only when I'm (sort of) underground in the women's locker room in the gym or in the lower level computer lab in the dorms, but that is to be expected with any carrier. Verizon is pretty good. I don't know why I'm looking for another carrier, maybe it's the price, but Verizon is worth it.

Most of the time my phone shows "No Service" while in the house and maybe 1 bar outside which usually drops calls. I added a booster to help the service in the house, but it really doesn't help much as I still don't have service more than 30 feet from the inside booster. I have called AT&T which is of little value as they say nothing can be done. It is very frustrating to be paying for monthly phone service and have such limited service at my home. I know that on the freeway service is fine, but once you are away from it the service falls off. I don't understand why AT&T can't put up some extra antennas!

Just moved here with my iphone 3G (almost at the bottom of El Centro, north of Park), and my iphone is completely worthless. Most of the time I get 1 to 2 bars, but the phone drops every other call, and the rest just sound terrible. It doesn't matter if I have 3G turned on or off.

Better upstairs than down, but I can take two steps to my left and the signal will go from 2 or 3 bars to none, and the call gets dropped. I used to have AT&T which was useless. Verizon is only a bit better. I'm keeping my landline.
