I've read a lot of post about at&t being a terrible network and blah blah blah. I want your opinion on it. I've been with at&t for a long time. I've been with them when was 'Cingular'. Now I've noticed since the atrix and inspire have came out, my network has been very inconsistent. Are you noticing this too? And is it enough to make you switch?

I'm generally happy with speeds and service. Minus the major spots (JFK, LAX, any sporting event) i've never had issues.
I too have been with them since cingular. I have noticed no change. Its the same service I had with my iphone. /Shrug
Ppl were complaining when I had that too But as far as Data was concerned it always worked. i could Stream movies or Sirius any time all day/night.
Still do/can. I don't use the phone part of my cell phones tho so I may have a skewed opinion. I think I currently have 4000+ Roll Over minutes
Ya if I paid for my bill id switch ATT sucks ass ill be on Verizon when my dad makes me start paying
ATT is a bunch of crooks I don't know why my dad puts up with it always some extra charges on there and they never take it off my dad had to call 3 times to get the 9.99 for ATT navigator off my line I kept telling my dad my phone doesn't even have that stupid app cuz I deleted all the bloatware
My girlfriend also works for a ATT call center and they teach them to slam and cram peoples accounts because they think no one will notice the goverment should of never let them buy out t mobile.
ATT got ride of there unlimited plan luckily im grandfathered in
But they put a cap on t mobile unlimited plan after they bought it I think its 5gb then u just get super slow speeds after that
There a giant corperation and there hungry for nickels and dimes
I suggest everyone who pUsh there ATT bill to take a close look at it
Oh one more thing there home dsl internet has a cap on it also 150 gb a month most people won't hit that ya bit if you have netflix streaming you'll hit it every month in my opinion alkida needs to pit there focus on blowing ATT up and not towers

Wow that was so hard to read I think My brain vomited.
ATT has not been approved to buy T-Mobile yet.....Altho they will most likely get it.
Alkida? My God what the hell......
There, their, and they're.
There is a place. Like hey i am going over there.
Then we have the word Their, It shows possession. Like that is theirs.
We also have they're or, they are. As is they’re over there, you can see their car. See these, ............ .. . . . .<--- these are the periods you left out of your entire post.
Verizon and att both have subpar performance for price. Generally all American providers are horrible.

Your lucky my phone didn't auto correct to something else I sent my boss a text one day and was trying to spell kati yet somehow it became marijuana let's just say I don't work there any more bahaha
ATT is very dirty you should hear half the stories my girlfriend tells me when she gets home
One person had 600$ in long distance charges all because they didn't have a 5$ a month plan
And the worst part is the lady didn't make any of the calls someone tapped into her line and wracked all that up here's another one
Customer calls and complains that he's being charged overages inhospitable cell phone bill for data when he presumed he had unlimited turns out some store employee changed his account to the 4gb plan when he came into the store to add a line. Theres a period ROFL bahahaha
Sorry but any company that puts a limit in the internet is f'd up in my book whether or not its cell phone or home phone its just flat out ridiculous PERIOD
And for anyone with ATT home service I bet you got a lil 5$ a month service line protection plan on your bill and I bet if you ask to remove it'll still be there or it will be back in a matter of time.
They teach their (yes I do know the difference ) employees to slam and cram all kinds of Crap service plan just one of many little extra charges you will catch on your bill

Thanks for all the replys guys but i won't be switching anytime soon because in my area (southern California) I have good signal and decent speeds. Sprint doesnt have good signal(in my area), Verizon is too expensive for me and t mobile isnt in the picture. When at&t and t mobile merge fully, we will be the national largest 4G network so why switch now?

I really haven't had any problems out of them. Of course, I'm not the one paying the bill either. Lol. If I have a problem my mother-in-law can get it corrected with no questions asked. If I was using mobile data more than WiFi, my speeds wouldn't be that drastically different. D/l speeds are around 3.5 mbps, both mobile and WiFi. U/l speeds are 1.5 mbps on mobile, and .3 mbps on WiFi. I had iWireless prior to being added to the account, which runs on the Sprint network, and out here in T county TN, Sprint's service is terrible. With ATT, I actually get service at places that Sprint doesn't cover. My opinion is, after researching plan options from ATT and Verizon, that with the new data plans, Verizon is the most money hungry carrier of em all. 100 dollars for 5gbs per month? At least ATT you get 2gbs for only 30 dollars. With the options we currently have with ATT, if we got the same thing with Verizon, we would be charged over 300 dollars a month.

There has been no big change. Been with AT&T since 2000>>Cingular>>AT&T. If anything this backhaul thing is an improvement in my area. I get good customer service, albeit with Enterprise Customer Care...and yes they still try to cram stuff I don't need at me. I think most sales peeps are like that. I just take it upon myself to withstand the onslaught. There have been times I have found stuff on my bill that I didn't want / believe I asked for. Just call them up, and they have retro'd my bill every time with usually no fuss, and usually an apology. I can be down with that. Due diligence and direct/firm/clear and not a-holish communication goes a long ways in my experience...

Yeah, $30 is how much they charge us for the 2gb plan around here, which is around the Memphis area. I've just got the $15 200mb data plan as I only use data on WiFi exclusively. You have the "true" unlimited that ATT used to have. Users who had the plan back in their iPhone days, prior to upgrading to the Inspire, won't see their unlimited data capped. I think they feel it would be bad business to cap the data of former and current iPhone users with the old unlimited data plan. Good thing you got it when they still offered it.

Was your 4g on? Her mytouch 3g doesn't utilize the spectrum T-Mobile puts out the same way that your sensation would. And even if you're in a bad 4g area or non existent area they make you pay the 4g cost regardless. It happens on Sprint as well.

Bull!
Call loyalty and tell them to fix it! I pay $20 a month for preferred android, and I get 4G speeds. (At least when I am in Dallas, cause we don't do 4G in west texas) They are just trying to squeeze more $$ out of you.

That's just false info right there. They both use the exact same spectrum for 3G/4G, it's just the Sensation is able to get faster download/upload speeds.

More details? What did they put you on? I work for T-Mobile and unless you had the really old 25 dollar android data and they added the old(but newer then the old 25) 30 dollar 5 gig internet, we don't have any 5 dollar add on for 4G. What they should have done was upgraded your plan to the new stuff where you have a choice of the $10 200mb $20 2gig or $30 5gig. The older rate plans are only capable of having the $30 web added in store. If you call care though you can get the $20 preferred plan, stores can't add that.
What I would say is instead of complaining on here about pay $5 extra, call care and make sure you are on the best plan for you. Reps at store level tend to not even pitch the idea of changing rate plans to customers and just tack on whatever feature Watson tells us to. You're probably paying more then you should be due to your own and your reps negligence. It's funny because as a rep I make much more money by saving my customers money with putting them on new plans, I don't know why so few reps just tack on the stuff and send the customer on their way. Call care, I am SURE they can get you a better deal.
Ok. I will do that. Thanks

Let me know what they had you on and switch you too. You'd be surprised what they may have now. Its funny people think that their unlimited loyalty plans and what not are so good but the new plans are much better. Reps tend to just agree with the people when they think they have a good plan because convincing them otherwise tends to be to troublesome. Or you just get get a lazy rep, sadly nine times out of ten when it comes to upgrades the customer has to tell the rep what they want. Where as with new activation its all about the rep trying to sell the customer. T-Mobile changed the commission on upgrades to try and fix this issue, and its worked on me. I make much more money now but my coworkers complain, its funny lol.
Im on even more family plan w/ 3 lines. They said when I upgraded my phone that I was on the older data plan and that it was no longer offered and I was forced to upgrade it

The thing with T-Mo is that they have the cheapest plans but unless you're paying $200 with the contract, you're going to get a crappy phone. Other than that I'd leave AT&T for T-Mo

Personally I would choose ANYTHING but AT&T....the only reason why I am sticking is because my family can't be bothered to move to a different carrier and I'd rather pay my portion of the family plan and deal with at&ts ****...
Just a heads up...
What trips me out about the bad rep that various carriers get regarding customer service is that regardless of which I've tried I've never had the same experience. I count myself lucky i guess (I've had sprint, Verizon, T Mobile and AT&T), as I typically set things up and forget it until upgrade time so my exposure to their customer service reps it's very limited.
That said I bought my one x just before a 10 day trip to Vegas with a 2 day stint in Williams AZ at the end of May. Couldn't have been happier with the service throughout my stay there. Service and speed was fine for me (stayed at the venetian but drove around North LV, Warm Springs and Henderson).

Never had a problem. I live in the OC as well. In the heights near the 60 freeway/beach blvd. Always have service, even LTE. Never once lost LTE coverage since i've had the HOX. Been to Hollywood, as far as San Diego, Huntington beach. The coverage really is great. I don't know why people talk so much crap on AT&T. My speeds are 12-20 Mbps consistently.
EDIT: the customer service at every store i've ever been to (roughly 5) as well as over the phone has always been great. I brought in my first HOX because the wifi broke from me flashing it. 10 days past my 30 day return. Took it no questions asked, replaced it free, not a refurb.

There's a secret for AT&T's customer service. "The customer rules" yes, its a motto AT&T uses but seldom follows unless, you do these basic things.
1. Be calm don't raise your voice. AT&T in store reps and cust care reps notate the account. They do sometimes leave behavior attitude in them as well. Good account notations on serious situations where you should be pi**ed and you're calm go farther with the cust care.
2. When you call customer care, talk to them normally. Explain your situation confusing etc they'll normally listen and do their best. Some one who has an attitude doesn't get far with customer care. 9 out of 10 are pretty polite and happy. Especially if get the Texas girls they're such a delight. Some of the southern states people are too. If you get the bay area folk well good luck..
3. This is the most important one. It deals with in store. And to understand it you have to remember AT&T used to be for a time the only land line service in the USA. That mentality remains with AT&T. So, don't ever mention another service provider or switching to it-the reps and manager will literally give you peace sign. Oh, AT&T reps are mostly bored. If you're entertaining witty funny you can go a lot farther.
I have had AT&T since 2002 they were Cingular who remembers them? The customer service went up and got to be pretty good after AT&T started with the iPhone. They attempted to act like Apple stores. Kind of worked. But they def got better.
My post is long winded but its true. AT&T can be frustrating at times. If you call about an issue they sit there on the phone to trouble shoot. Have a reception problem they'll have techs check the tower and send an alpha tag to your SIM card (improves reception by prioritizing the cell tower to rate your imei first in line) the alpha last for a week tho. AT&T also has service centers in most major cities. They'll replace. Fix. Repair a phone under the warranty. I've been there twice in my life. It looks like a store but they fix it instead. Also on the phone with customer care and if you ask to speak with a floor supervisor that person normally will go above and beyond.

Replace Sprint with AT&T and ATT with Verizon and you'll have your answer
Hey guys. I'm not new to android. I've had an android phone for over 3 years. I was wwith Sprint for 13 years, but got tired of there horrible and inconsistent network. The unlimited data I was getting was at home when I was connected to my WiFi.
Sitting in my living room with Sprint talking on my E4GT was was unbearable. If I wanted to talk I had to use my land line. I'm amazed at the speed and sound quality since switching to Verizon. I'll be lurking in two weeks and looking to root my white S3.

Welcome. You will find both joy and pain in your experience here, but don't worry, the pain is only one payment each month.
I'm new here too. I've been with sprint for the past ten years and finally switched to Verizon as well. Looking forward to the developers over here

Welcome, Sprint refugee here too, amazed at the network quality, and you'll find a lot of ex-Sprint folks have switched over to the red side as well. Don't let "cost" warnings scare ya, not that bad really especially if you use wifi at home. Unless you use a boat load of data you'll find the cost comparable. I share 4gb with my wife and find the bill maybe ten bucks higher a month. Well worth it for me to have no dropped calls and a blazing fast network. It will be interesting to see if Sprint lives up to their LTE promises better than the wimax effort and keeps it unlimited. If so maybe I'll go back after this contact is over if for nothing else their phone selection. Anyway welcome.
Wow, it's amazing all the converts from Sprint. I think I stuck with them because the unlimited data, but only one time did I go over 1gb. I would turn in WiFi as soon as I got home. My question is how does Verizon calculate data? I've had this phone for only 24 hours and the my Verizon app says I've used 103mb of data. How can that be, I did all my updates at home on my WiFi?

I am an ex sprint user as well. I git all the same high price warnings. No issue for me it's actually 30 bucks a month cheaper. And if your coming from sprint the data speeds will make you cream lol. I got the 4 gig plan and have yet to clear 2 gigs. Over all I'm very very very happy.

I'm another Sprint user (until Friday) jumping over to Verizon. During my Internet speed tests, I never saw a number in front of the decimal point... Now I'm supposed to get TWO DIGIT numbers in front of the decimal point? Incredible.
I hate Sprint so much. I will miss my phone, but the GSIII will make up for that quickly I bet.

I just moved over today as well and so far I'm loving it. Although I get some weird issues indoors, like at target. It basically loses all service.

Same deal with me. Came from Sprint. Service is awesome so far, the prices are ridiculous though. Probably going to look to get on my parents family plan actually. The individual ones are terrible.
yup, i'm a switcher to big red. Sprint had terrible data speeds, and barely any service indoors.
Verizon is where its at in terms of network coverage and data service.
I don't understand the price complaints either. These new shared plans are terrific. I used to look at Verizon and it would cost like 30 more per month for them. Now it will cost me $2 more than Sprint a month! No that's not a typo either. My bill with Sprint (my wife and I) was 128 plus tax. With Verizon, sharing 4 GB, it'll be $130 a month plus tax (both prices include my employee discount). Awesome switch! Now to get out of that ETF... I'm working on that now, haha.

I'm a switcher, but long ago, I switched to Verizon from T-Mobile in 2006

I switched from Sprint also <.< I couldn't deal with the dialup speeds I was getting on my S2
I swapped from sprint as well I couldn't deal with the .05 dl speeds but I am lucky I got 2 unlimited LTE plans from a friend so I'm still good to go on data.
I switched from Sprint to get my rezound previously. I do not miss sprint whatsoever.
80 a month for my big red plan with actual unlimited good speeds.

thought I was going to be the sore thumb!
