I get only. 1-2 stars in house and yard. Very surprised.

I have reamed Verizon a new one about their hideous telephone signal strength here at my lower CapHill home for over two years now. A cursory Verizon cell tower location search lists only 3 towers within 3 miles of my location with the nearest being a whopping 2 miles away (UGH). A similar search for AT&T and T-Mobile from this same location shows at least 20 towers (each) with a few of them within 1 / 4 mile or less. I am located on the 3rd floor of a wood structure building with partial visual views of downtown SEA (Columbia Center etc) and can muster -110dBm signal strength at best on their 4G network (i.e., on a really good day IF I am super lucky and all the stars in the heavens align). I live in the highest population density residential neighborhood in all of SEA with many many cell phone users, yet despite my constant haranging of Verizon (both local and corporate), they feel no incentive / obligation to radically improve their network in this high density use area (really Verizon???) Shame on you! BOTTOM-LINE: All other things being equal, I would recommend avoiding / dumping Verizon if you live anywhere on lower CapHill in SEA.

No internet service for the last two months. I have worked in this building for 3 years. Reception used to be fine. About two months ago I lost the ability to use internet on my phone from this location. My phone works fine elsewhere. This appears to be a trend for AT&T in Downtown Seattle. If you spend a fair amount of time here avoid AT&T. For the record, I have a business phone with service from Verizon and it works fine in the same location.

Starting in October 2017, data and texts (regular and iMessage) do not work in downtown Seattle. AT&T claims it’s my phone, even though coworkers are having the same issue, Apple says my phone is fine, and I don’t have this issue anywhere outside of downtown. Defeats the point of paying for a smart phone if it doesn’t work 5 / 7 days of the week.

Horrible horrible reception. I can rarely connect to the internet from my condo. If I'm lucky I have 3 bars, but usually it's 1 or 2. I constantly have to reboot my iPhone to "reset" the connection. Calls fade in and out. It's a total joke. AT&T said something to the extent of the signal being blocked by all the "tall buildings in the area". Um HELLO, you are a wireless carrier, get your act together.

Reception has always been spotty, but has worsened Recently to the point where most of my incoming calls are not received.

no matter where I am around the city, I have 1 or 2 bars - 3 is rare and always a surprise. it's ridiculous that I can'tbuse my iphone in Seattle. i've been an AT&T customer for 8 yrs, but the last 2 coverage has been going waaaay downhill.

Something has happened to Verizon's coverage. I used to be able to talk anywhere in the house with LTE, but now I can't even answer my phone.

ATT coverage has decreased, I use to have 4 bars but now 1 to 3 and only 3 if I'm by a window. I travel for work and coverage isn't good as it use to be.

Horrible cell service throughout the city. I mostly get 1 bar, calls drop, phone calls break up. For a major city with potential for a lot of money, this is terrible coverage. I'm very disappointed and I will be leaving AT&T when my contract is up.
