AT&T says New York City service is improved

I really want to get an Iphone4 but i'm reading these comments and maybe I shouldn't. I live in Rockland County, NY and I know one person with an Iphone4 and he always picks up when I call. Even in an elevator in the city where he works at I was able to talk to him on his Iphone4. So is AT&T service that bad in the NYC area? I have Verizon and I love it but I really want an Iphone4.

I am a long time Verizon user who is tired of waiting for Verizon to get the iPhone. Should I cave in and the iPhone 4 with AT&T? Is the service really that bad? Is the Droid the way to go?

I had ATT at my home for many years. The service was marginal at best. I then got DSL and it wasnt good. They charged me for unplugging wires and really stupid crap. When UVerse came out I tried to upgrade. I set up 5 appointments and they NEVER showed. Also, I had to disconnect my DSL and they left me without email for at least 5 weeks. I filed a complaint with the state and they finally got the message, but their service wasnt good. I also tried ATT cell service and it didnt work in the rural areas. Verizon is so much better where I live and I will never give ATT a chance again.

i have seen no difference in service...i live in long island and i have no service in my house. if i wanna use the phone i have to put it on speaker so i can see when im about to have a drop call. i dont even get phone calls anymore... i get voice massges but the phone doesnt ring.

Every since the Iphone 4 was available, my Iphone 3 drops calls everyday and the reception is worse.. at first I thought it was me, but then my brother and a daughter brought up the subject and said they were dropping calls more often..then another friend..what's up ? I would never buy an Iphone again

Ive had AT&T for the past 4 years i live in daytona beach and had a problem here and their with signal in the house. My local AT&T store told me that i need to go to the spot in the house where my bars drop and turn the phone off pull the sim card out wait 2 min put it back in and turn the phone back on and it will be fine. i did this in the 2 spots in the house and no problem ever since. so if you know where you loose signal at with your phone turn it off pull the sim card out and put it back in and turn the phone back on and you will be ok fyi this does not work in mountains. i can go back to my home town in ohio which is in the middle of nowhere litteraly and i have always had full bars and great reception.

We travel to NYC frequenly and have have AT&T. We've found very few service problems while in the city, though we're usually in Mid-town and the village. We've always been able to use our phones everywhere, even in our hotel. I will be curious to see how the new iPhone 4 works there.

I've been with this company before it became AT&T,I must admit my service was much better back then. AT&T needs to make overall improvement for their costomers. When my contract is ended I thinking of another wireless provider.

It's not just the i-phone and not just in NY. It's been going on for a few weeks. Been dropping calls like crazy. All our AT&T phones. I-Phone and Blackberry.

New York's not the only place with a problem. I quit AT&T because I can't get a signal anywhere in Reston, VA (since I live there, that's a problem) and because their customer service is even more unhelpful than Comcast!
