Here's the deal. I have the latest iPhone. I have used it from coast to coast...Calif to NY.......Kansas City.....Carolina's, etc. I have NEVER had a problem with reception.......until using it in TV. So it isn't the phone. When I was in TV the past 5 days, reception was just terrible. I was trying to use the cell phone, text, e-mail, etc. and the bars on the top of the iPhone came in very weak.....perhaps one or two bars showing poor cell reception..and sometimes no bars were showing. I had a friend who I was trying to reach and she was trying to reach me during that heavy rain storm on Monday. We were down in the LSL Square area and neither one of us could connect via AT&T. While mentioning it various residents who have AT&T, they ALL complained of poor reception in certain areas of TV. Even the sales reps said that AT&T reception depends on the area you are in. The sales reps all have AT&T iPads...& they have periodic problems with reception. I have never experienced this poor reception before....in any part of our wonderful country and in Canada as well....and I've been a customer of AT&T for MANY years. My purpose for writing about this AT&T situation is to try to get as many residents as possible to call AT&T and wake them up to the fact that they need to build a new tower in TV area. Hopefully, you AT&T customers will give them a nudge......and voila....we'll get a new AT&T cell tower in TV! Can't hurt.......might help.
