AT&T
I recently moved to New Orleans from Cincinnati. I was shocked to find that I had almost no coverage anywhere! Back in Cincinnati the coverage was great and I rarely had problems. I dont understand how they can still be in business with coverage this terrible! I dont want to switch because I love my iPhone but the love is quickly fading. I cant make calls, I cant get 3g, therefore I cant use any of the apps that make the iPhone great.

I have AT&T and get no reception in this neighborhood at all, att's little "mark the spot" app that they have evidently doesn't work either, I have been sending it in for a year of the problem, I have more dropped calls and less coverage than I ever have with this carrier... . APPLE could you PLEASE relaease the iPhones to another provider... .. PLEASE

Recently switched from AT&T and the service is much better. Verizon is the same price as AT&T but the service is much much better. 3G is fast and service is very reliable. The last hurricane that came thru, my friends Verizon phone was the only thing that worked. We love it!

The service is great with Verizon. We are extreamly happy with Verizon. We came from AT&T. Teh 3G is everywhere and fast.

I get amazing reception in New Orleans with Alltel. I rarely ever have had less than two bars anywhere and dropped calls are pretty rare. Even inside an old shotgun house with solid cypress planks in the wall (where my Tracfone that used AT&T gsm and another before that that used t-mobile's networks couldn't ever get a call inside the house, plus it's right next to another similar shaped house) my Alltel cdma phone can get and receive calls reliably.

Once you hop in almost any building, there will be no service. T-Mobile is rediculous for wasting my time. Been dealing with them for months now, I'm planning to file a complaint with the district court if they charge me for breaking my contract. Why advertise a service, when there is none?

My Sprint phone usually works fine. But when it doesn't, I force the phone to roaming, and it works great. And I pay no roaming charges. LG 350 allows you to force the phone into roaming mode. Get a phone which includes digital and analog roaming (Sprint and Verizon include this on some phones), and which lets you force it to roaming mode; and a plan which give you free roaming; and you'll always get a good signal on your phone. GSM phones have no analog (i.e. AT&T and T-Mobile). Nextel works only on Nextel towers (no roaming at all).

I get great reception all around town except in my second floor apartment. If a call goes through, it is sure to be dropped. I wonder whether a different phone would help?

Wow, we had Alltel, and sense Alltel bought Verizon, we went ahead and switch to Verizon and LOVE it! Service is in so many more places then AT&T and Sprint!

My Sprint phone fluctuates between 0 and 2 bars at home (Franklin and Gentilly area) inside AND outside. Calls are constantly dropped, causing me to get a home phone. Otherwise, my phone gets good reception everywhere else in the city and even on the outskirts. I have an AT&T laptop card which also gets very poor reception in this area (inside AND outside). The card gets good reception most other places until west of Laplace.
