Anyone else notice that Verizon has started to suck?

In SE LA?

I’ve noticed decreases in performance over the last two years.

Dropped calls
Completely missed calls
Horribly slow internet

Is ATT any better?

Yeah it's getting really annoying. My contract is up in 11 months so I'll definitely be looking around.

Good. I’m not the only one. I’ve got four bars of service and it took me three tries to make this post. In Elmwood

It's not just there. I'm in north Houston and it's getting worse. I think they are jacking with things while implementing 5G which has had issues both for AT&T and Verizon.

Yes. I have been w Verizon for years with great service. It seems like the last year has been pretty bad.

Switched to Verizon a year ago and have regretted it. Never had these problems with ATT.

Damn, AT&T has been sucking for us. We thought about giving Verizon a shot but now I'm having second thoughts.

Came in from SC for the Natty. Verizon is king here. Consistent 100 mpbs.

My data was literally unusable the entire weekend. I realize sporting events create lots of congestion but this was unlike anything I’d ever seen.

Plane landed in rush hour ATL 5 PM and the data was perfect again.

I don’t know but every time people complain about not having service somewhere, they have ATT and I have Verizon and have service

I think it's this. I've gone from full bars of 4g to now 1 in places where I can see their cell tower. Guess it's offline for upgrades.

I switched to Verizon probably 15 years ago from AT&T for these exact same problems. Been wondering if it may pay to switch back or try someone like T-mobile. I think the issue may be them neglecting their current network as they approach the move to 5G in areas I'm not in. Frustrating.
