You could not of said it any better. It’s amazing when all your minutes are wasted to drop calls and then their solution is to increase your minutes.

Surprisingly everyone says Verizon reception is better, but i just recently switched from being with Verizon for over 10 years.. Mainly because in Anaheim Hills there is very poor reception with Verizon.. Now I switched with ATT, the reception it’s good but it could be much better with ATT.. I have no choice but to stay with ATT since i still have “some” reception, better than nothing.

Please bring better reception in Anaheim Hills CA 92808

I thought they added a cell site close to my neighboorhood. I live less than a mile from La Palma/Western in Buena Park and seems like there wasn’t any impovement. I still have drop calls and very poor signal. ATT sucks.

No one in HB will allow a cell tower to be built. Your cities residences are a bunch of NIMBYS. The city approved two but since then residences have protested them out.

ATT is hands down one of the best. Its also way better than tmobile. Tmobile has bad reception all over OC plus they don’t even have 3g. If you want good service get ATT or Verizon.

The iphone with 3g is the way to go.

I pay for service, I expect service. Don’t make AT&Ts problems my problem when other companies can offer a better connection. I have ATT and I am STUNNED at how bad the network has become. The 3G map of Verizon vs ATT shows that ATT is ripping off its customers. My phone is WORTHLESS inside my house, and ATT wants to now charge for that new component to hook up to the internet to give me a better signal inside the house, and Verizon, with their much bigger network, gives that component for use against your minutes, not with an extra MONTHLY charge. I am expected to pay extra to make the service that I already pay for work better??

I worked in telecom for years. The original PacBell/Cingular system, which was one of the best, was transferred to T-Mobil. The ATT system, which was never really focused on OC became the Cingular/ATT system. Bottom line….if you want good coverage, go with Verizon.

AT & T Service SUCKS in Newport Beach 92661
If my wife did not like the iPhone, I would not spend $200 a month for bad service.

Interesting. I have AT&T and never have dropped calls.

Why haven’t they added a cell site on Niguel Rd? From Marina Hills south to Camino Del Avion you’re lucky if there is a rare chance of getting a connection.

I’m not happy either when I get poor reception, but one difference between myself and others is I used to work in the industry as well and realize the insane intricacies that the carriers have to put up with to erect a new cell site. It’s the stereotypical not in my backyard, but I want to eat my cake attitude that Americans (natural born or not) tend to have. If you want perfect coverage, I’m sorry but you have to put away your organic is healthier delusion away (I grew up in the valley, where organic fields lie next to conventional fields, there’s water run off, so much for your “legit” organic food), and realize you will need a tower within 1.5-2 miles of your home; deal with it. If it’s not the cancer nut jobs getting in the way of the permit/approval process, it’s the old farts that don’t want an “eyesore” sitting above their hypocritical “eyesore” purchase of an RV.

Gadgetress, I’ve given up on getting good ATT reception at my house in L.F. I am wondering when the MicroCells will be available in our area… any way you can find that out?

It is all a BIG lie.

I am in Aliso Viejo and the service has been terrible for pat 4 years.

Still NO improvement. It is actually a little worse off.

These guys are almost like thugs. They are stealing everyone money and giving terrible service in return.

I work in telecom. You can’t get a darn tower approved here. Everyone thinks the towers cause cancer but its actually the phones & the bluetooth devices that are harmful.
